With all the sadness in the world right now it’s a time to count ones blessings and be grateful for the life you have. The suffering and the loss to many families is truly overwhelming and we know not where or when someone will be stuck by the hands of fate.
Never take life for granted because one never knows when life will take a turn for the unexpected. This is a rule that I have lived by since I was very young and have myself been through many heartbreaks and loss. I have had my life hang in the balance of fate more than once through no fault of my own and my husband has had the grim reaper shadow him most of his life. This makes us more aware and sensitive to the suffering of others. The saying, there go I but for the grace of god, is something that one must bear in mind with all the suffering in our world right now.
Keep it simple, keep it honest and true as you make your way through life and try not to leave pain in your path as you negate your earthly journey. We are all accountable for our actions in the end, but to leave the world knowing that one has done good deeds lightens the soul and eases the conscience at the end of the journey. Now more than ever we must be responsible for our own actions and not contribute to the current evil pervading our world. We are witnessing only the beginning of what is to come, but the effects will last more than a lifetime.
Go gently and live from your heart and count your blessings that you are not one of the unfortunate souls to suffer the horrors of war, homelessness and poverty. One never knows when fate reins down an unjust blow upon the innocent.
Blessings, Warm and fuzzy hugs
