Joy and Sorrow

Our lives will have their share of joy and happiness with a sprinkling of sorrow and pain They will see their share of sunshine. They will see their share of rain. At times we will find ourselves in the midst of a joy… like we’ve never felt before… when all of a sudden sorrow comes knocking on our door. At times we will find ourselves consumed with sorrow… wondering if it will ever end and suddenly find joy waiting for us just around the bend. Knowing life can change in an instant… No matter what we plan… We try to remember to enjoy the joy every moment that we can. And when sorrow is a visitor We try never to lose sight… how her shadows will eventually fade In the joyfulness of light. Knowing life is unpredictable always changing and has no guarantees we close our eyes we fold our hands and we get down on our knees. We pray that fate or destiny or the universe will be kind… that when sorrow enters our life… joy is never far behind.
