I hope these thoughts give you something to ponder while you enjoy your morning beverage. As you go about your day, I invite you to take some time to reflect on your observations. Consider if there’s anything you can do to enhance your life, such as looking into the mirror and appreciating yourself. You may also find a way to make the world more beautiful with a simple act of kindness. Perhaps you can hold the door open without expecting a thank you. You may also want to consider if you have a gift to share with the world. Maybe you have some untapped talent you regret wasting, as we sometimes do with unused towels or our good china. I hope you find them enjoyable and return for more tomorrow.
Sadness
I asked the flame
Why it danced so much?
The flame replied:
I saw the sadness in your eyes,
I wanted you to smile, if only for a moment.
I know what tears can do. I did not want them
To extinguish the fire in your heart!
Sadness is part of life.
We all feel sad sometimes, but we must find a way to the other side of that sadness.
I know it is not an easy thing to overcome sometimes. I understand some live in sadness, not because they choose to, but because they do not know how to find their way out.
Sadness has its place in life, and we should sometimes feel it. How would we know we are happy if we did not feel sadness? The trick is not to let it consume you.
Therefore, feel your sadness and live in it, if necessary, but only briefly. Then get up, wipe your eyes, and look for something that makes you happy. If you need a laugh challenge, try this one.
No one can tell you how long you should be sad; that is yours to determine. However, know that the people around you are rooting for you and want to see true happiness in your eyes again.
Today’s challenge:
Feel your sadness and allow others to feel theirs, then move on. If you can help others, help them.
