a prayer of contentment

DSC02247

To put our lives into perspective with such simplicity is so beautiful to me. There seems to be a theme this week, that we are so much more than we think we are; it has been a thought lingering in my mind lately as I search for the exact person I want to be. I believe that when we cross over to the other side, we will see our greatness, which will be much more than we could have ever imagined. The key is to believe and find that greatness and use it in this life. What do you believe?

This weekend I am going to relax, cuddle up with Clay and The Pups, and maybe whip up something delicious in the kitchen. Please Spring, come sooner than later. I want to lay in the grass and read a book.

  1. I just had a discussion along these lines with someone close to me. She was feeling depressed and had self doubt. I told her that she probably wasn’t even aware of her beauty and potential. It was easy for me to see. We all have greatness in us. Being kind to others is great. Trying each day to do our best at any task we undertake is great. I believe that being true to ourselves is great.
