What a Smart Woman

I found this poem on another blog, have a lovely, and it really opened my eyes and spoke to me. I hope you can take something away from this as I did:

"people are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered;
forgive them anyway.

if you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
be kind anyway.

if you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies;
succeed anyway.

if you are honest and frank; people may cheat you;
be honest and frank anyway.

what you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;
build anyway.

if you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;
be happy anyway.

the good you do today, people with often forget tomorrow;
do good anyway.

give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;
give the world the best you've got anyway.

you see, in the final analysis it is between you and God it was never between you and them anyway."

-Mother Theresa

Better things to come...

This week has been a very upsetting time for myself and certain people I love very much. We realize there can be things thrown at us that may make us fall but we know that God will be there with us with love and comfort.

I saw this verse today and thought of those I love:

2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.- James 1: 2-3

Much love goes out to those who are grieving right now and please know many prayers are being prayed for you and with time it will get better.

Love,
Katy
