Lets be honest with each other. There are days that it's just plain hard to have a good day and to be in a good mood and lately I have had several of those days.
Well, just the other day I was talking to a great friend of mine, Judy, and here is what she told me, after a good length conversation, "I get that you feel sucky and are tired of it (really I do get feeling sucky!! Lol), but lots of good stuff has happened to. So try to put it in perspective." I then realized I need to work on keeping my happy moments happy and my not so happy moments, well, out of my life or at least to a minimum.
So, keeping things in perspective, today was wonderful! Really...today was wonderful!!! I woke up this morning to a little boy that was so happy to see me that he ran and gave me a huge hug! Then we went to church where I was reminded today that God always walks by my side and has made ME a fisher of men. Can you believe it? God has called me, yes me, to go and preach and teach to the people of the world, or at least of my neighborhood. After church I got to eat lunch with the best Mamaw in the world and my little man and of course visited after lunch. Oh and did I mention that I got to see all the residents of where I used to work and man were they all so happy to see me and I was so happy to see them. It made me remember why I loved working there so much, but at the same time reminded me how much I miss it there and how badly I at least want to work one weekend a month, or heck, even one day a month.
Anyway...back on track. I ended my day with a wonderful mother/son dinner at McCalisters Deli with a great potato and wonderful company with Ethan. About half way through dinner Ethan, out of nowhere, tells me to look at his queso dip and there he has taken a minute and made a heart in the queso and tells me, "mom I love you." Oh how that made my day and days to come.
I have learned this week that it is so important to keep things in perspective and that although everyday won't be perfect there are days that will be perfect and for those days I must remember that I am blessed and that I can be a blessing.
Love and blessings to you all!!!
