I let my imagination run away with me. For no particular reason that I can figure. Other than I was too happy. I cannot wait for our return, I miss having full control of the joy in my life.
Dear Stephanie, I'm not sure exactly what you are saying here, but one word jumped out at me--"control." I've learned that I have little control over life. I can choose, however, to control how I respond to the vagaries of life. I can choose those whom I will keep in my life and those whom I will let go. I can choose to be a friend or not. But for so much of life my choices are restricted by forces outside myself. I've come to peace with this. But it's been a long haul. I wish you joy in the morning.
Joy is a wonderful thing.
ReplyDeletei cannot wait for our return is such a good lynchpin.
ReplyDeleteI am totally battling myself right now. :(
ReplyDeleteHang in there, Steph--we LOVE you!!!
ReplyDeleteCall a truce with yourself--we love you!!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure why it isn't showing up, but Fishducky has twice left me a sweet comment. It reads:
ReplyDelete"Call a truce with yourself--we love you!! "
Thank you, Fishducky! I'm trying to do just that...and love you too!
Life can be an uphill struggle but it is well worth it
