I'm sending hugs to the little girl in you who was longing for something different.<br /> Longing for something can sometimes be good, of course, if it provides the motivation to change something for the better. But that's where the prayer--"Lord, help me to change the things I can, to accept the things I can't, and to have the wisdom to know the difference"--is important.Evelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09458293325369594900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7570512522741409033.post-11580209337552645132012-05-16T13:49:26.093-07:002012-05-16T13:49:26.093-07:00Great post.

I like the way you put it "if only for moments a day." Because that's really all it takes, isn't it, for us to realize how much we have to be grateful for. Then those few moments can change our attitude for the whole day.Ruth Schiffmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02625363295823548969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7570512522741409033.post-964289543242075702012-05-16T10:11:08.039-07:002012-05-16T10:11:08.039-07:00Very true!
