Day 342 - Too Good Not to Share

The days are going so fast I can't even keep track anymore.

This one was so good, I had to share.  I did not write it.  It is by Vickie M. Worsham as found in Keep Believing in Yourself and Your Dreams, published by Blue Mountain Press, Boulder, Colorado.

Believe in Miracles

Love your life.
Believe in your own power,
your own potential,
and your innate goodness.
Every morning, wake with the awe
of just being alive.
Each day, discover the magnificent,
awesome beauty in the world.
Explore and embrace life in yourself
and in everyone you see each day.
Reach within to find your own specialness.
Amaze yourself,
and rouse those around you
to the potential of each new day.

Don't be afraid to admit
that you are less than perfect;
this is the essence of your humanity.
Let those who love you help you.
Trust enough to be able to take.
Look with with hope to the horizon of today,
for today is all we truly have.
Live this day well.
Let a little sunshine out as well as in.
Create your own rainbows.
Be open to all your possibilities;
possibilities can be miracles.
Always believe in miracles!



And here I thought I needed a blog to say all that.

This prose exemplifies the real me.  Not the me who has been carrying around deep, dark pain, but the me I truly am.

Have I mentioned yet today that I got my soul back?

I would say , "Be careful who you give your heart to," and while that's true, I don't think that was the real lesson for me here.  Never give up.  That's what I believe I was supposed to learn.  I didn't give up on my faith, although it came close.  I didn't give up on knowing that God would bring me through.

I believe it was Winston Churchill who said, "When you're going through hell, keep going."  That's what it took for me.

I still don't plan on dating for another 342 days.  At least, that's my plan.  But whatever God's got cooking is alright by me.

Love and peace.

Sincerely, Jennifer
