THIS, TOO, SHALL PASS...

Today was, for the most part, a pretty good day, considering how difficult the rest of the week has been. Thanks to a dear confidant of mine, I’ve seen things in a much brighter light today. My spirit, though admittedly still rather heavy, is lighter and more at ease.

Tonight found me among friends being entertained by Dixie Longate and her Tupperware party at a local theater. It was good to just laugh and relax for an evening.

I know that in so very many ways my life is so beyond richly blessed. I’ve been overwhelmed with so much the last few weeks and months. I’ve hit some brick walls, and I’ve come against the speed bumps. I’ve had lots of questions, lots of fear, and lots of soul searching to do. I think I’m calming down and am starting to see things much more clearly.

Here’s my confession: Life is not always easy, and it seems like sometimes it’s all too easy to take life too seriously. I’m guilty. I have decisions to make. I have directions to follow. I have my heart to which I must be true. And, while, in many moments, especially lately, I’ve felt alone, even in the midst of my friends, I know that I’m highly blessed. And you know, this struggle I face daily, this “drama”, that this, too, shall pass. It always does.
