Chalmette

It's difficult because we have so little control over the powers that be, let alone our own emotions at times. When it really gets to me, I try to focus more on people I can depend on and who have been truthful with me.

When I can get out, I like to wake up at the break of dawn and watch the sunrise over Lake Michigan. I'm stuck in my home, so now I settle for watching my "house" rise (darkness to light). I listen to the birds singing outside, and I spend some quiet time of reflection. I savor the beauty of a new day, and thank God for the gift of a new day - it's not a guarantee in life, so it shouldn't be taken for granted, IMO. I pray for the strength and resources I need to make it through that new day.

I hope you can find the faith to keep on keeping on.
