So I’ve come to realize that when we experience certain negative waves in our lives, our thoughts become consumed with what’s wrong with the world.
As the sorrow within me emerges and is brought free to the light, I’m finding more and more instances of what’s right in my life. I’ll be the first to admit that things aren’t currently as stable as I would like for them to be, but I’m finding such blessed joys in just “being.”
Today I find immense joy in being a mother. The road of motherhood and of parenting is never a completely smooth one – but I truly believe that when you recognize the foundation and the individual relationships that we have with our children, much weight is lifted.
Today I awoke to a beautiful present, posted on my wall, and it started my day with a smile. It appears that while I was sleeping, my children were cutting construction paper hearts for me. Completely unexaggerated when I say it almost brought a tear. It said so many things to me, on a subliminal level, that I needed to hear. It spoke volumes of love and of happiness that we in this life dream of.
There’s a calm about my house these days – one that I can’t say was there even a year ago. While I won’t speak unto what attributed to the chaos, in my heart I know, and am thankful for change. The storm has to be weathered for the rainbow to appear.
