As time goes by I am finding myself living a simpler life...loving differents colors like browns...creamy whites and just touches of green....they are just soothing to me right now....culled out alot of things...only living with the things I truly love...no longer feel the need to always decorate or rearrange things...certainly don't feel a need to be trendy...of course I never really fitted in with any one style anyway...but these last few years have made me realize that contentment is a great treasure in this life that many seek for all their life and never find until it is too late to enjoy it...
I have missed my blogging friends...don't know if I will get back to blogging again on a regular basis..blogging is so different now...life has a way of drawing you back to reality...it's hard watching your parents age and lose memories...hard seeing your kids struggle or hurt...hard hearing a doctor say there is no hope...hard watching a loved one being lowered into an earthly grave hoping they left here knowing God and knowing how much you loved them...I have been blessed beyond measure in this life...I know God..and I know of His love and mercy and miracle working power...I have seen even in my own family loved ones come off of death beds and live to tell the story...I have seen doors opened that no man could close...I have seen raging storms within my soul calmed by just the touch of God's hand....I have seen love cover a multitude of sin and shine light in what was a dark nightmare in people I love...even now storm clouds are trying to gather over ones that I love but I woke up this morning alive and in my right mind....I can see..hear...feel...walk...talk...and I will stand still and once again see the salvation of the Lord....always remember you guys...there is always hope and you may be the only light someone will ever see and the only love someone may ever know....take care you guys....and know you have always been a blessing to me...Picket
