What Is Enough?
Nobody is perfect,
So what imperfections are acceptable?
There is always that one thing -
What would life be without some challenge, some issue to deal with, some obsticle to overcome.
Doesn't everyone have the same percentage of struggles that just take different forms?
Stronger people have bigger ones, some people's are visible and some aren't so transparent.
We all get dealt in.
And just in the wake of a peaceful lull, is the shadow of the next wave. It is never over. As though if you are resting, you aren't growing. As though you are only doing well if the surf is trying to pound you.
What makes life happy is love.
To enjoy someone and to share with someone

Hey Jane,
Very insightful, I can totally relate to this post.
Its so hard to keep your head above water when the waves never cease, but the more we battle the waves, the stronger we become...
:) Your writing is beautiful!
Hi there Jane...you got it right...there is faith, hope and love and the greatest of these is LOVE. Amazing how little control we have over love...it is a gift (sometimes causes a lot of pain too). You are right about forgiveness too ...sometimes we can never mend the broken fences...then we just have to be able to forgive on our side...and let it go...then we are free again.
Enjoyed your post...we become strong and alive by taking each day ...one day at a time. Have a good day tomorrow!
