I believe this to be true. the thing is that it's so easy to lose sight of this truth.

Just the other...Yeah, Eddie, I feel you, for real. Just the other day I found myself mired in the sadness of not having this and that in my life. It sorta started with not getting a job I really need this summer. Anyway, I started feeling really negative, sad, and self-absorbed. I was moved to sit daily and got the point where I said, "okay, enough; just be thankful for what you DO have". I am thankful that I have a few moments of time with a certain someone. Thankful that my children are healthy even when they are so healthy that they have unlimited energy! Thankful that I overcame so much in my life. Grateful, too, that I know that place inside that you speak of; that is infinite suchness. Being able to express emotion without feeling shame or needing something to dull the pain. Thankful, too that I got over the "positive thinking" farce. For this, I am truly thankful. Thank you, Eddie, for reminding me of that.ChelleyHopnoreply@blogger.com
