To quiet your hurts and sorrows and disappointments……..
To make your journey smoother……
To neutralize your lingering doubts…..
To fill an empty heart…….
To forgive and , perhaps , forget…..
To appreciate your gifts, however small or large…..
To restore your emotional health……
To capture the positive……….
To live each day in peace and tranquility ,
………………….make happiness, satisfaction, and gratitude your priorities .
Will all the woes disappear ? Absolutely not. But it will help to know there’s always, always, a rainbow if you just seek it.
Life is a roller coaster : up and down, up and down , and there’s no changing that.
But the decision to understand that sadness and stress and turmoil are always lurking is healthy. That is a fact. But it is even healthier to move on to acceptance and serenity . Both give you peace of mind.
Love the sunshine, the birds, the camellias, the church chimes, the smiles, the rain, the volunteers, the music, the lenten roses , the poetry, the breeze , the sunrise, and on and on. These are ours for the taking———-always with us .
Move on. Move up. Move out.
As our pastor says, “Be blessed and a blessing “.
