Troubles

Living this lifestyle isn't always easy when not on the road. It is frustrating to have wheels, but they don't go anywhere! I begin to feel sorry for myself and there is nothing worse than self-pity! I stewed in it for a few days. It's not the reason there hasn't been a post since 6/17! I didn't stew that long.

Then I sat myself down and figured I had better straighten up. I started counting all the things I have to be thankful for. I have a roof over my head. I am warm and dry (sometimes a little too warm). I get to see a beautiful sky and trees and listen to the birds singing everyday. I have a wonderful husband that comes home every night and I know he loves me. I have two wonderful daughters that call me nearly everyday and I am very fortunate to still have my mom and dad.

Life isn't so bad here. So I get a little bored sometimes and the money is tight since I had to leave work, but that is little stuff. My mom always told me that when you start wollering in self-pity, it is time to do something for someone else. And as usual, mom was right!

I pulled out my crochet bag, found my little hat patterns that I was making for children with cancer, chemo-caps and I got busy making more. If these little hats can help brighten a sick child's day, it is a terrific thing.

I wish I could do more for them. Bless their hearts. I look at pictures and read the stories about these awesome children and it tears my heart out. All they go through and yet they keep a smile on their little faces.

Children are so resilient, so innocent and so forgiving. No wonder in Matthew 19:14,  Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." (New International Version)

God bless all the little children for the times this world is heading for are not for the weak, nor the Godless.

Peace until next time...
