Random Thoughts On a Chlly Afternoon
Pt.2
I think of my favorite itty, bitty bugs, so gentle, harmless, my Ladybugs hibernating
now, or they would be out showing their beautiful satin-like polka dot dresses of red and
black, or tan and black... I have been feeling a bit down lately but who has not been down
this path at some time or other in this life? And so I must thank my few friends, whom I
know have been praying for me, because some of the dark clouds were suddenly lifted
today! Most of the fog has vanished! My circumstances have not changed, but my soul is at
peace once more. I’m beginning to see! Yes, today, I parked the car.. I did not enter the
house but went for the usual walk instead. And I watched nature changing, saw how it was
adjusting to all the elements in stride- the temperature, the wind, the sun and rain. It
reminded me to “taste and see” how sweet life is and to remember that it doesn’t matter
what is going on today, there will be a tomorrow. And if tomorrow doesn’t come for me, in
this place, so what? I will be at home where all of my sorrows and regrets and the tears and
all the fears, will be buried in ancient graveyards of yesterday. I look forward to welcoming
another beautiful Christmas, with the beautiful music, the wonderful smells, the laughter and
joy, the brightly colored lights, including the craziness of it all- which I can do without
sometimes, lol—But yes, I embrace it all!
