A sigh.

She sighed deeply that quiet afternoon, deep in thought.

Unexpected words of love and encouragement from across the seas had come, a breath of fresh air to her weary heart.

"Thank you," she whispered.
She is not forgotten. She is very much loved.


Time will soon pass and each day will bring it's own beauty, opportunities, and lessons. The key is to live each day with that perspective; to see what she has, not what she does not.

"I can do this," she told herself resolutely.
"Of course you can," came that strong, familiar, knowing voice from above,"I would not have brought you here if you could not."


She sighed again, a sigh of humbled trust and surrender,
of peace and momentary rest, of proper perspective,
and continued on her journey.

Love this. Thanks for the reminder that it's all about what we do have, not what we don't.

Continuing to pray for you.
