Dear Friends,
It has been said so many times, in so many ways that the difference between the “troubled" and the “untroubled" isn’t in the trouble, but in the way it's handled. And last night, handled, I did - the unimaginable! I went from The Cash Store, to Cash Money, to Money Mart to pay off my son’s gambling debts! The unbearable heat rising from the asphalt, the weirdos acting out along Yonge Street and the employees and my son being on first name basis, added more “noir" to the black comedy I was living!
According to Scott Peck, the author of Road Less Traveled, Life is difficult! Truth such as this allows me to take (gratefully) full advantage of the (anticipated) temporary calmness in my life this weekend. I shall wash the windows, plant some herbs, flowers and bring out the balcony furniture, looking forward to visiting with my granddaughters from NY.
Until the next storm hits my sail (and I’m sure, it will), I remain grateful for my ability to understand and accept that Life will not cease to happen; it’s how I choose to live it (with a little help from my friend, Pinot Grigio) that will make all the difference.
Have an easy, breezy weekend everyone!
I really liked this one today Lili :-)
