Those are good points.

All the focus is on *ME*.

Yup, that can lead to misery.

Dear God:
I ask that no Airman, Coast Guardsman,
Marine, Sailor, Soldier, Reservist, National Guardsman, or Merchant Marine
feel alone or forgotten.

O Israel, hope in the Lord;
For with the Lord there is loving kindness,
And with Him is abundant redemption.
And He will redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.

Psalm 130:7 & 8

Howdy, Kathy.

The sun’s finally trying to peek out up there. I hope you’re seeing some on your side of town.
I’d have sent you some of ours if I could. LOL I was wishing for clouds to tamp down the heat.

But enough about me...

Number Seven “Never Forgive!” was something I had to learn the hard way, as being a bad way to go through life.

The tighter one embraces their bitterness, the more you miss out on all that is happening and changing around you. To excessively embrace the hurt, to wallow in the puddles of victimhood, only gives those who hurt you more and more power over your ability to be joyful or at peace with oneself.

Stay open to understanding now what you may have missed before. Stay open to accepting the present ‘as is’.
Now, I know.

Good evening, radu, and a Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.

Is it still too hot? The sun is just starting to come out here, and not doing a very good job of it.
And the breeze is not helping for any warmth from the little sun.
