Everything blends together for beauty and purpose.
We hold one another up and we grow together in our experience.
We come to the assistance of others and we all prosper.
We benefit from the comfort of the shade and the light of the sun.
Our differences compliment one another while our likeness keeps us in agreement.
We learn to compromise, adjust, and thrive.
Sometimes we provide the peace, and other times we simply bask in its presence.
When we provide and accept support, the outcome is a peaceful scene.
Living in the Gap
February 27, 2012 – Uninvited
Pissy mood. Snapped. Said ugly words. Cried. Felt better… Yes, the ugly exists here too at times. Thank goodness it didn’t take up permanent residence.



Yeah, I could sit there with a book or take a nap or both for a while.

I want that in my yard! And sometimes we need the ugly to really appreciate the beauty. Sometimes the ugly just reminds us we’re human. Imperfect. Human.

Beautiful photo, as well as a beautiful post entry, Suzi!

Love that!
Yup…I too can get in a pissy mood and be ugly at times. But sometimes I think we just need to let it out and be done with it.
Have a wonderful Monday, my friend!
(((( You ))))

When I get in a snippy mood, I practically clench my teeth and bite down trying not to say something I’ll regret. Usually I’ll just retire to a place where I’m alone until I pull it together.

My mouth is my worst enemy when I feel crappy; getting much better at controlling what comes out of it.

Sorry you had a bad day. Maybe you’re under a little extra stress?

Maybe a tad.

If we didn’t know down, how would we recognize up? Be gentle with you SuziCate. XO

Oooo, I need to learn the latter part of this: “When we provide and accept support, the outcome is a peaceful scene.”. (The accepting part.)

Peace is a wonderful thing…

There’s a lot of juxtaposition between your thoughts at the beginning and Living in the Gap. Probably not by accident.

Actually this time it was accidental though often my correlation between the two is not.

I love this image. Where is it from? It looks familiar in a way.
