I am linking up to Kathleen's White Wednesday Celebration with
a year in reflection of whites...
sometimes the start
has a surprise finish....
we grow as the unexpected
happens and we yield
sometimes without a fight...
each step a teachable moment...
each stumbling stone
is a choice of a
building block...
for in every sorrow
there is found sweetness of joy...
looking for the gift
in each day...
savoring each precious moment
wishing time could stand still
yet moving forward
with hope and a renewed
strength for what lies ahead...
trusting, believing....
with an abundance of grace & love
that is found through the hearts of others
that there will be much rejoicing
this season...
Happy White Wednesday
from my heart to yours...

Such beautiful whites and even prettier words to reflect on. I can relate to the words written on the journal today......I guess sometimes you just feel that way about yourself and what's going on in your life.
I'm hoping you're feeling well enough and have the time to really enjoy the holiday season this year Kate.
Best wishes,
Kathleen
