You are the gift

Life is a Gift
It is easy to get caught up in the struggles of life. We can reach the point where the struggle becomes normal, just the way life is or even the way it is supposed to be. Our lives become full of suffering and turmoil which we simply accept. When we reach this point we can lose our enthusiasm for life, sometimes even wishing it would all just be over.
Life is not meant to be all struggle and suffering. Life is good. It is also a gift. But whether we see it as a great gift we accept with joy or a horrible gift we complain about every day is up to us.
Please join me in celebrating the gift of life.
Put a little love in your heart

Surely the day will come…

“Surely the day will come when color means nothing more than the skin tone, when religion is seen uniquely as a way to speak one’s soul, when birth places have the weight of a throw of the dice, and all men are born free, when understanding breeds love and brotherhood.”
– Josephine Baker
