Often, I look around at "it" and think about where all the negativity and sheer wickedness in the world stems from. That's certainly a place I'd never want to find, or find out how it makes itself so. Regardless of where it comes from, it rears its face, disturbingly strong at times. It can test hope and harbor discouragement even on the brightest of days. One look at the front page of the paper or the bombarding media headlines following us on our smartphones, laptops, and television threatens to turn the love in our hearts into anger, resentment, snap judgement, false entitlement, and even dark feelings of revenge. Is it a surprise that the amount of disconnect and the number of grave stories grows stronger even, as a result? I doubt we should actually wonder where "it" comes from. "Its" time is only dependent on the time we give it. All we have to do each day is give forward as much love and light as possible in order to put the good back in, everywhere. We can't linger in sadness over everything that's gone wrong. We're here to acknowledge the good and the light and to spread it as far as we can. Please enjoy these smile worthy things that remind me no matter what's happening, love can conquer anything.
My partner in fun, life and light.
