Anticipation

Sometimes I wonder why life puts us through
tough, painful and heartbreaking things.


But I have to say when I look back
I have learned so much and grown to be the
person I am today.

Like Thursday's note from the Universe:

It wasn't ever supposed to hurt. 
You weren't ever supposed to cry. 
And I never dreamed you'd sometimes 
feel so helpless.

Yet, as things have turned out, lots of folks 
have trouble getting out of bed on cold, dark mornings.

Anyhow, should there also be the 
occasional pain, tear, or touch of sadness beyond 
that, please realize these were anticipated, bargained 
for, and even sought after. As each would illuminate 
your resiliency, prove your strength, and help you 
blast through every flimsy notion that would otherwise 
keep you from seeing that even now I hold you in the 
palm of my hand and that all things are possible.

Lots of love
