Awful News
Sometimes it seems that we spend a lot of our days just hoping that the other shoe doesn't drop.
There are so many sad stories out there every day...
...folks getting sick.
...dogs dying.
...young men being killed in car accidents.
If we dwell on that news it can really drag us down.
There's a lot to be said for staying in the moment and enjoying each and every day...
...but it's hard to do, isn't it?
The week began with Mom's dog taking his last breath. Not the end of the world, by any means, but it does rock the old world for a little while.
I traded messages with a young woman facing a health issue and I just couldn't help but say how sorry I was that she was going through any of it.
Stay strong.
We're praying.
And then the news of a young man being injured in a car accident.
A 25-year old man who was on the verge of being married.
A soldier.
A strange, almost freak accident.
What can you say?
It's just awful news.
And man, it can really wear you out, if you let it.
Be grateful.
Stay strong.
Try to laugh a little.
Because life is right around the corner.
Hopefully this post finds you smiling.
