~ FOUR THINGS ~

Four things

I wondered why it rained when sun was what
I needed. Then I realized the rain washed
away the dust that settled so easily on me
as I had recently taken to standing still.

I wondered why life seemed to pass me by.
Then I realized I was not living, just
simply existing. Living requires participation.

I wondered why no one ever listened to what
I had to say. Then I realized I had only been
talking about myself and all my troubles.
I was the one not listening to them.

I wondered why God

had abandoned me.

Then I realized
I had abandoned God.

I wondered why I was not happy.

Then I realized standing still,

simply existing, whining and
turning my back on God,

does not make for a happy life.

Four things...

1. See the sun when it rains.

2. Accept that life evolves with you, it doesn't
revolve around you.

3. Understand that God gave you two ears and one
mouth. You need to listen more than
you speak.

4. Plan with God for He has plans for you.
