Hang on in there.
Dirk, (my former husband), is now my friend. It took many years to get to this point, but, thank God we did. We're both grateful for the fact that honesty is what we've grown to appreciate about one another. He knows that the truth I believe is what I will share and the reverse is true with him. Reading his e-mails have become part of my routine. Lately, there haven't been any. So, I emailed him. He was feeling poopy. Many of us are also feeling poopy for one reason or another...okay, we're all feeling poopy about the same thing... we're all feeling poopy about the economy. This is the time to remember to name and claim what you desire. Dream, Believe, Achieve. Inspire or Be Inspired. Use your stumbling blocks as stepping stones, and "do what you're afraid to do." (Thanks, Eleanor Roosevelt) Just do it! (Nike) "Be the change you want to see in the world." (Gandhi) "You can make it if you try." (Sly Stone) "We are the ones we have been waiting for." (Alice Walker) If none of these work for you, insert your own. Just don't stay there, shake it off, because God is large and in charge and he didn't bring you this far to let you go. So...hang on in there. It doesn't last always, it'll be all over come morning. Just hold on to God's unchanging hand. Trust and believe. Dirk, as I told you in my email. as Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. said, "Keep the FAITH!" For we walk by Faith, not by sight.
Peace within and out.
YES, I CAN! YES, YOU CAN!
