SPRING IS HERE
Good morning world!! It’s 7A.M. and I have been up for a while. I love that time of the morning because all is quiet and you can hear “life” around you..
I have not written in a while for many reasons: first, I was out of town visiting the folks. My dad’s party was a great success and he was elated as he had never had a party in his life..what a pity! We all made a fuss over him and endured the countless speeches they call “wisdom from an aged person.” I have noticed that the older one gets, the more opinions one has…and the story changes each time …YOU GOTTA LOVE ‘EM.
I don’t know if this happens to you, but whenever I come home from a trip, I find myself out of sorts…I can’t seem to get into the groove of my routine..In fact , I get kinds depressed as it were.. I had a few meetings the next day as our village is expanding and trying so hard to grow, but the “snap” did not come back…Who knows!!!!!
I hate being in these slumps, I am, by far a positive person, to me “I can” is not a swear word, so these set backs are most annoying.. But enough about me, lets get positive together, let’s lift one another up…..The scriptures tell us to do that very thing..
I had a friend recently call me and tell me that she hates herself….Why?
We are such wonderful creatures made with love, for love..Sure,as in my case, you have become a little rounder, things that were “up ” are now down, the face needs Bondo not Botox…but what are your assets? don’t look at the obvious, look at the hidden wonders of you. You have many gifts in you..you have much love to share and your value is without boundaries. Build on these, nothing is impossible for you if you set your mind to it…and when you fail (as I have)…don’t beat yourself up…Pick up and go on with a vengeance…After all, there are 365 days in the year and every day is a brand new day to start again. Never succumb to feelings, remember you are in charge of your body, not the other way around..
If your down and out, get out there and help someone else who has it worse that you, it helps get you attention of your issues and the answers will come…if that is not a desire for you, then get outside and see that the sun is still shining , the birds are still singing and that they were created just for you…See how important you are!!!
I guess I’d better stop now. Hug one another.
