Today, I choose to wake up with a smile...... For far to long, - TopicsExpress



          

Today, I choose to wake up with a smile...... For far to long, that was not an option. Today, I can step out into the world Knowing that everything might not go the way I plan, and that is more than okay because.....Its not my plan! It isnt for me to decide, or too impose my will, but it is up to me to put that smile on my face. Somebody recently told me that the key to not getting angry, not letting depression overwhelm you, too opening up a piece of your heart for all, is by asking every morning if I may be granted the strength to just be gentle, and to put that into action with everyone around me....... Awesome! Lets face it, were human! Life is very interesting and sometimes very difficult. Sometimes life puts you in the right place at the right time and for many different reasons. Maybe to help the sweet old lady next door take out the trash. Maybe to help a friend thats in a bind, maybe to help a complete stranger. Maybe to fall in love with the wrong person, maybe the right person! Maybe to experience loss, or to be there for somebody going through the scariest situation...of their life!! It might be that you are just supposed to be in the right place at the right time. Maybe even the wrong time! At the end of the day its not for us to decide...its not, by our design, its something much bigger! Today, I hope you all woke up with a smile, or at least found your smile as soon as possible. If not, thats okay too. Believe me, I for one am just happy that, these days lately, have been worth smiling for. Like I said earlier, I havent always felt this way...so I get that! The only way i can describe why this sudden feeling has overwhelmed my heart is with two words.....Surrender and Love! Its not always perfect but as soon as I surrender to the fact that this is a plan, designed by something much bigger than myself, and ask that I may be gentle and be placed where ever you should have me, I cant help but smile when I feel that comforting feeling take over me. And thats how Love is defined for me.... The same feeling you get when you hold that person in your arms and everything feels like its all going to be just fine! Kind of like a cold chill with a warm embrace!!
