Yes, blank pages can be intimidating sometimes.
I sat looking at this one for quite some time thinking about what to say and thinking that I don't have anything to say today. But then...
Hasn't life taken a strange turn lately? I feel like I'm in a B-rated movie at best and a nightmare on bad days. What happened to my somewhat orderly life? Oh yeah, a little, teeny, tiny virus raised its ugly head and roared the world over. Dang. Sometimes even the tiniest among us can raise such havoc! Some days it feels a little surreal, doesn't it?
I may have mentioned before, I don't remember, but I lean toward hermit tendencies so staying at home isn't such a problem for me when it's my choice. I'm finding now that I have to I can feel a mite rebellious about it. Of course I'm being a good citizen and only going out for essentials and an occasional ride in the county to keep my sanity in check. That doesn't keep me from dreaming about running away to see my children and grandchildren or my favorite aunt who lives a little over an hour away and friends still living in my hometown. I ache to see them and hug them. Share a meal or two. Shop in the stores without seeing a mask.
I am confident I will be able to again. This won't last forever, even though some days it feels like it will.
I'm finding joy and gratitude in the daffodils and hyacinth blooming my garden,
the little buds on the maples,
the blue skies,
the warm days.
Look for the joy in nature, in the earth waking from its winter slumber.
It will okay.
God is in His heaven and all will be right with the world again.
Blessings,
Deborah
