Now, I know what you're thinking...a promenade is a leisurely walk and LIFE is anything but calm. *Don't think mine is* But hey, a little self-deception is all part of keeping our sanity as mom's, right?! ;)
So, walk with me, talk with me...and if for no other reason than to put off the dreaded laundry-monster for a little while longer.
Reflect, cry, laugh, yell, agree, disagree, pray, or procrastinate...

ReplyDelete“The Grasp Of Your Hand”
ReplyDeleteby Rabindranath Tagore
Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers,
but to be fearless in facing them.
Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain, but
for the heart to conquer it.
Let me not crave in anxious fear to be saved,
but hope for the patience to win my freedom.
Grant me that I may not be a coward, feeling
Your mercy in my success alone; but let me find
the grasp of Your hand in my failure.
Hayley, This is Olivia Anderson. It's Olivia Kelley now. We knew each other in high school. I stumbled across this blog...I am in tears. Not fearful ones. Inspired ones. Does that make sense? I included the poem because it also inspires me, and comforts me. I hope you find solace in it too.
Please remember something the next time you feel that empty feeling. We are all interconnected, through God, and you are so very cherished and blessed. COURAGE! <3, Olivia
Mighty Oak
ReplyDeleteKathy J Parenteau
Stand tall oh mighty oak, for all the world to see,
your strength and undying beauty forever amazes me.
Though storm clouds hover above you,
your branches span the sky,
in search of the radiant sunlight you
count on to survive.
When the winds are high and restless and
you lose a limb or two,
it only makes you stronger, we
could learn so much from you.
Though generations have come and gone
and brought about such change,
quietly you've watched them all yet still
remained the same.
I only pray God give to me the strength he's
given you,
to face each day with hope, whether
skies are black or blue,
Life on earth is truly a gift
every moment we must treasure,
it's the simple things we take for granted
that become our ultimate pleasures.
lovely little William. Nice to see those clothes on prom
