Alone with nature is a soothing balm to the soul…it’s healing blanket wraps the soul in peace…
I walked in the warm enveloping morning soon and found nature all busy…as if life had not changed one iota…nature’s assurance that day will follow the night…and life will continue
Some people are called to leave us, but it is not the ending of the story…just the ending of their part in our story…
We can lament about what was or be grateful for the things that were…even the scars left are a part of their legacy…helping to create the beautiful tapestry of our lives…
…because in the end…it takes both the light and dark threads intertwined to create our mosaic…the tangled and knotted threads that we often obsess over are only part of the story…and often only seen by us…in the end God will reveal the unique and impeccably perfect masterpiece of our lives…
When the needle of life pricks the very depth of your soul…remember it is not the end…morning will come again…just as the day follows the night…
“Don’t be ashamed to weep; ’tis right to grieve. Tears are only water, and flowers, trees, and fruit cannot grow without water. But there must be sunlight also. A wounded heart will heal in time, and when it does, the memory and love of our lost ones is sealed inside to comfort us.”
