Time...a second, a minute, an hour, a day, a week, a year... pretty soon you have a lifetime! "What is man that thou art mindful of him, and the son of man that thou visiteth him?" David, who wrote many of the poems that are in our Bible in the Book of Psalms really had a point. We are but a glimmer on the spectrum of TIME, but to us each day can SEEM like forever!
We have lost several friends in the past couple of months. It seems that my husband, the pastor, barely recovers his equilibrium from counseling one grieving family and another comes along!! My time this summer has FLOWN by; it seems like a very busy time and at the RESORT we have also experienced loss. Our long time clients are at "that age" as well. Time...loss...gain...life. We all need to re-think our priorities from time to time and this month has been one of stress, and needed shuffling of schedules in order to try to "be everything to everybody" - to do everything that NEEDED doing,
to cross all the "t" s and dot all of the "i" s.
Maybe it was the 50th Anniversary back in February; or possibly the 50th High School Reunion at the end of the month, but my nostalgia is getting all mixed up with my sense of certainty. My focus on surviving TODAY is mixed with my certainty that Life does go on; my focus on what is true, good, honorable, necessary is mixed with my need to LOVE and be LOVED, to feel and experience all the aspects of LIFE each day.
May your day be blessed with a positive focus; may your LIFE be full of Love!!
