Yesterday was such an amazing day; as I was cutting back the bulbs and a young snake came up upon me and stayed with me watching me do the yard work. I was chatting with the young snake and just appreciating how Mother Nature works in mysterious ways. I could not believe the experience I had. I have been so blessed these past few weeks being with my In-Laws helping them through this time. What I have been able to experience is once in a life time experiences.
These are moments that are so precious; to know that someone loves you so much, as well as loving someone unconditionally is so rewarding. I have never had a family quite like my husband's family. I feel so blessed to be with them and forever grateful. I wish everyone the same kind of love that I have.
Unfortunately some people may never know that kind of love because of how their mind works. Dealing with depression is no small task. I am grateful that when I feel blue I can pull myself out of it; it may take a day or two but I have never felt the kind of depression that is so debilitating. It was a very sad day to find out that Robin Williams dealt with such depression and took his own life. He will be a missing that will be hard to get over. But it really opens up the conversation of Depression. How can such a funny, loving, free spirit deal with such demons? I know that there are many of you out there, I hope and pray that you find the help and support you need to keep going.
One thing that is stuck in my head is never judge unless you have walked in that persons shoes. To many times we judge, I judge thinking I am better and how can they be that way; but the reality is we have no idea, we don't walk in their shoes. With all that is going on in this world we need to come together and love one another. No matter how people are or what they do, we need to support and love each other.
Today's inspiration is so important; Father God, if someone is hurting today, kindly visit and embrace them with your loving arms. Comfort them and make them well again. Amen. Pray this little prayer or you be the one to hug someone until you feel the pain go away.
Until we meet again my friends.
