It has been a rough few weeks. Bombings, Tornadoes, Presidential Scandals, and of course our own personal trials. Sometimes I have a feeling of waiting for the other shoe to drop. What could possibly go wrong now? When that happens it is a clear sign I have to push the new away and take a deep breath and relax. Count my blessings and do what I can in my world to make life a better place.
That may be as easy as holding my little dog Dissy. Playing ball with her or just telling her how beautiful she is. Calling a friend and asking what life is like from their view point, doing what I can to help out where I can. Helping a friend with chores, mowing the lawn. I love being outside, smelling the fresh mown grass, feeling sunshine on my body as I garden.
My love for reading hasn’t diminished over the years, a good book, a great sandwich and an easy chair! The natural disasters that take children’s lives are the hardest to deal with. Knowing that tomorrow isn’t promised to any of us. Old age is a privilege many will not receive. My 1st wife passed away at 42, she gave me our son and that is a gift I am always grateful for. I find comfort in knowing that spirit is never wasted. I remember past lives and passing from this life to the next. The painful part came before passing, passing itself is an adventure. The feeling of flying, and your spirit expanding past the confines of the body.
Take some time and push back from the world of Disasters and loss. Have a deep breath and be thankful for what you have. Losing material things can be difficult but losing a life is the worst. A material item can be replaced by something else, a life can be remembered. A bad situation can always be worse, look for the solutions not the problems. Love is the thing we are here to do, let’s do it right. Love is always the answer.
