What can I say...I posted this 2 years ago and it's still relavant..


Shy Angel


..So much going on.

Illness.. personal losses......money issues....knowing a grown child's pain..

 War......always war...

Is it possible for one to feel guilty about the happiness in their life? To want to hurt for those who hurt?

But I do feel the pain. It is real . My heart hurts for the world. Does that give my guilt a voice?

 I don't know.

I do know tomorrow will bring another day. One to make choices. One to maybe give a smile to someone who may need it. One to say a prayer for those hurting, scared, lonely.

And one day more to thank God for His blessings and ask Him.. "What can I do? How can I make things better?? Guide me where You want me to go. And when I complain, show self-pity, let me stop and remember..and let me feel Your arms around me as You tell me to think of others first."

Have a good tomorrow. Say your prayers. Pray for all those who've had darkness knock at their door..

I don't know how people survive without prayer and a belief in a 'higher power'. Take care.

My joy is to spread happy, kind thoughts throughout the Universe and pray that someone somewhere will have a moment's peace...and a lil' humor thrown in for good measure!

Thanks sista!

I'll say it's still relevant. You made my day when you said that you'd buy a card with my artwork on it. :D God bless you, Sweetie, for all the joy you bring.

Every day you post on your blog, you are giving a gift Colleen. I don't know what I'd do without your sense of humor, compassion, and love! All gifts from a wonderful God!
