"I've seen better days, but
I've also seen worse. I don't
have everything I want, but 
I do have all I need. I woke 
up with some aches and pains, 
but I woke up. My life may 
not be perfect, but I am blest." 
Lady Winter Moon

In my search for tolerance
and enlightenment during 
these winter months, I ran
across the above bits of
wisdom . . .

I've come to realize that bits
of wisdom such as these, as
I tend to think of them, are
thrown our way daily. The
issue at hand might be that
we're not paying attention.
And, if we do notice, do we
do anything about them?

It's way too easy to bandy
about wise words and not
really even hear them! I like
to think I'm listening . . . but
am I truly hearing?

I can just see Mother shaking
her finger saying, "Listen up!
Pay attention to business. This
may be your only chance!"

I swear, I truly want not only
to listen, but to really hear. 
I wish to honor the reality 
of learning. I want to grow.

Courage, pray come to me. 
I may not truly be ready, 
but I so need to try . . .
