Five minute writing assignment. Just challenged myself to do this and tonight was THE night to ACT!
Some days I wish my list had NOTHING on it. But then again that would mean I have no reason to get out of bed. No meaning. No worth to my day. Having NOTHING would be hard. I have always had lots of stuff. Even when our home was destroyed in a fire we had stuff. Some wasn't very useful but we had something. Often times I feel like I have NOTHING to offer a person beyond my smile and prayers. The truth is that some people need NOTHING more than my smile and my prayers. I should give those away freely and often. NOTHING would make me happier than to raise kids who care about others, to live in a community who welcomes me and all of my scars and fall asleep in the arms of the man God presented to me to love me here on earth. It always seems like there is SOMETHING that needs to be done but NOTHING is as important as my family, my faith and my own personal peace.
