Scars And Silver Lining....

     So I thought I would try something a little different tonight...

     As I sit here trying to debate what I want to write about tonight St. Francis stares at me from the corner of the room. Hopeless determination to see nothing more than the impossible...letting go of the reality that there are things that simply cannot be changed...Animals graze my sides in an effort to comfort a heart torn...

     ...Bowed head a prayer escapes passive lips, " Lord please grant me the strength to get through these next months." Reading books in an attempt to find some answers that are no where near the pages... The price we pay to live, and love...to mourn, and feel pain the tax for the wonders of life and compassion. Familiarity will never cut in half the pain of loss, always trying to shove together the pieces of an innocence that left long ago...

     ... "Thank you god for granting the will to get through such utter loss and confusion..." Even on a day miserable covered in clouds its worth nothing that even though there is such thick cover; there is sun and bright blue skies. Even on a dark night where there isn't even a spark it is worth remembering that even those clouds will eventually pass, and dissipate.

     If given time... All wounds heal, and yes there will be scars... Scars even those internal grant us the character and meaning of who we are...Cherish those you have earned, and respect those of others...

Cherish those gifts you are given while you possess them...
