Today has been one of those days of having to do some "deep thinking!" All too often, it is this chain of simple thoughts strung together that make one day look like the one before it.
What does it mean to "really" live? To feel and know that YOU have made some contribution to this world? To be mindful of the fact that you and I are here to do more than just take up space.
People who contribute to life are people that I am attracted to. Attracted in the sense that I know my life will be enriched, because they are a part of my life. It is also knowing that some people show us how to do things by the "how to" model they live before us.
I believe we are all ignorant in some area. There is no way that we can know everything! I am quite turned off by those who lift their noses in the air, as if they are more special than the rest of us!
We all can contribute to the growth of another person, and we all can have a light shine on an area of our life, a thought, an idea that we may have never considered needs improving or expounded. It is people who challenge us to be more than we are! Ones who cause us to dig a little deeper... to be the better us!
Let's be tender with one another, as we learn these life-lessons! We are not "instant" anything!There's always the process we would love to skip, but cannot, if we want to go for the greater thing!
If you are a part of my world, for whatever reason, I am SO thankful. I know in my deepest heart of hearts it is for a reason.
I pray we each fulfill our part!
