"If I can stop one heart
from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain."
~Emily Dickinson
Methinks 'tis time for moi to
grow up, get over the weather
already and maybe think of
others who just might be in
far worse situations.
Alas, 'tis ever so easy to get
stymied in ones own issues.
I can remember as a kid, if I
complained, dad would ask
me to name several things I
was thankful for or that were
going right in my life. Just
might be a habit I should
return to.
Today we're off to the lab to
turn in some samples. I see
the techs hurrying around,
gathering meds, putting away,
exchanging places, meeting
customers, never a moment's
peace. I just wish they could
all sit down for a few moments
and have a cuppa.
Everywhere you look . . .
people walking in the snow,
a tired mom holding a child's
hand, a car slip sliding to a
stop and not quite making it.
Here's to positive thoughts
and lending a helping hand!
Yeah, high time I got over
myself! So glad I read Emily
this a.m.
