Well, here goes nothing!! I have had a lot on my mind this week that I have no outlet for so I thought why not start a blog!! Many of my friends have recently done this so I guess I was inspired!
Something that has weighed heavily on my mind this week is the death of a child. A friend lost her high school age son this week and it has truly broken her heart! I keep thinking how would I feel? What would keep me going? I know that my faith in God would keep me going on a daily basis. I know that he would sustain me and not let me give up on my life because someone I love with all my heart went home to be with him. Our children are so important to us and it is so hard to fathom them not being around anymore. It is harder to understand it when their death seems to be a random accident of sorts. But think about the world that we live in. There is so much violence that we face day in and day out. There are bullies at school, murders in our streets, people taking things that don't belong to them and fights over something as miniscule as a pen. Where is the love for our fellow man???? Lost somewhere in this desperately lost world.
I think we should try to spread some love around. Have you ever seen that commercial where someone does a nice thing for someone and it just keeps being passed on and on. That is a lesson that we should all try to implement in our daily lives. Sometimes something as easy to do as smile at someone could be the difference between life and death for a desperate person. OK maybe a little extreme but you get my meaning!!! Love your neighbor as yourself!!
