Good Morning & God Bless, My Friends! I hope you are having a blessed Tuesday so far and I pray that your entire day is blessed with smiles, laughter, peace, happiness all of God’s goodness. Make this day what you want it to be. Don’t let the day “happen to you”. You “happen to the day”.
You’ve heard me say a lot recently that life is a journey. It is a journey filled with wonderful moments, disappointing times, obstacles, lessons, blessings, loss, heartache, love and many other experiences that make up our journeys.
Each and every person we meet along our journey is there for a reason. Each person plays a role. Sometimes we don’t know their purpose in our journey until it is too late. And some we know exactly who they are to us or who they will become to us. Some may stay only for a short while, and others stay for a lifetime. No matter how long they stay in your journey, they were meant to be there for that length of time. Even if it hurts when they leave.
Have you ever encountered someone for only a brief period of time and yet they made a lasting impression? That’s the way life works sometimes. The people who are with us for only a short time can sometimes make a huge impact in our lives and in our hearts. You may hurt when they are no longer a part of your life, but, in time, you will realize that you were blessed to have them in your life because you grew as a person, you were forever changed for the better.
Don’t regret letting them into your life–into your journey. Regrets keep the blessings at bay. Regrets make your heart close up and you’re unable to let other people into your life who will also bless you and create growth and change. Be grateful for everyone you meet. Those who are there for a lifetime and those who are there only briefly. They are all supposed to be there.
Good Morning & God Bless, My Friends! The Horse Mafia® hopes your day is wonderful!
Sending you love, blessings and gratitude from Sterrett, Alabama!
