Today is my last day with you…
It has been such a wonderful journey, sharing so many special moments with you. Please know, I’m so grateful for all the time that we spent together, the conversations, the direct messages, silly moments filled with laughter, the things that we did that are memorable and that have traveled with me until this moment, wow, looking back we also got through some difficult places too. I’ve really enjoyed life’s journey that has included Mountain Top Views that provided Unmerited Favor while being there, which allowed locating “Beautiful” that has a language of its own, a journey that has also included Valleys that was so dark and low, I wasn’t sure this heart could climb up again. However, For Me, my rope has been and is God’s Grace which allowed this heart to climb up through those low places, and whispered to continue forward.
This journey allowed this heart to know the unmeasurable value of Faith, not just knowing God as my creator, or what others say about God who He is and Not, but finding the treasure of a personal relationship, a place that provides a shield of an unmeasurable peace beyond this heart’s understanding or having the words to express to impact to you. A Faith that provided the revelation, the treasure of “God’s Rest” which is so much more than just those words, it is a treasure. A Faith that allows “hope” beyond a grave. A relationship that you wish you could give to everyone you know, a glimpse of, what you’ve found, but this Heart Recognizes, that Faith is a “personal choice” and only those who “choose” to seek it will find it, and only “you”, only “I”, only “we”, can decide what we “choose” to live on, “knowing” that our choice is choosing what we are willing to also die on. A Personal Choice, not answers, but a Truth.
We live in a world where we are always debating so many things, yet, a truth is that we all have a choice “daily” on how we live, on our words, our actions, and one that started on our own and will end the same way. Many of you have traveled some miles with me now, many of you since “day one” of being online. You know this heart shares a Perspective, not Answers, a perspective. You know, this heart, is not really interested in what is “easy” or not, but instead “an exercise” a Focus on what really matters “daily”. A buffet table is shared in this village, shared with those who take a moment to listen, to watch, to read, and to decide what can be an asset from that table, to carry forward on the journey. And I decided to not take this moment for granted, trivializing this opportunity to Heart share with you. Today is my last day with you…
With That…
It has been a great journey and I’ve learned so much, that the list would be endless to share. I considered, All the things that seem to matter so much, most of which are so minuscule now. I’ve reflected on the many years of nonsense tolerated, involved in, the pettiness, that now at this moment who really cares. I’ve learned the value of a Village, a village filled with Family and dear Friends that surround you and will hold you up during difficult places, a village that prays for you when it is difficult to breathe, and places where you find it hard to stand on your own. A village that you live prepared to do the same wherever, and whenever the need arises. We have shared so much laughter, and that included tears and endless hours of hope for our tomorrow, and we always talked about many times about how “life changes”. We talked about how fast it goes. It really does go by fast, and the older you get, it seems to go by faster. We talked about, how it is so easy to take “what really matters” for granted Most of us, can get so side-tracked, allowing distractions, subtleties shared by someone that can change our focus, and we can so easily get tricked by allowing offenses to build up walls between us, at least “for some”. Walls to divide instead of finding that place to address “hidden” issues designed to destroy future generations. A crafty subtle divider that most can’t see and choose not to address. The only question this heart has is “Who Wins?!” when those walls are allowed to be built. I’m grateful, I’ve learned different degrees, about “love” respectfully most through difficult places But “learned” And That allows a great reminder, that Love Matters My Intent is that This book, my book, my heart, will close on the Chapter Titled “No Regret” This heart has shared for endless hours, about how “Life Is Like Really a Book” which in my opinion is a great metaphor, “A Book” A book “we” all possess, it's a common “denominator” no matter WHO you are. A Book that begins and ends.
We Know, this book. . .
Has a Beginning Has an Ending And It offers each heart, “beautiful blank pages” in the middle Which allow us to write what matters to “our heart” Allows us to know “we” are surrounded by “many” but we will always be “accountable” to one. We will travel with many But Decisions presented and decided by one
Lessons Learned
The difficult places you've walked through, filled with tears, with prayers For some, you found the Faith that allowed you to “crawl” through unspeakable places Your Faith allowed you to find a Hope That allows you to Celebrate Life That allows you to Recognize What Really Matters A Hope that “extends” beyond a chapter Beyond a book that will come to a close ~ HS
It is time to close this “Heart Letter”
