[QUOTE="goldenguru, post: 100421, member: 1545"] Stands - your quote so struck me because I am 'guilty' of this kind of thinking often. It goes like this: "Oh I miss the years when life was simple. When everyone was happy. When the kids were little". OR it goes like this "Oh I can't wait for the years when life will be simple. When everyone is happy again. When the kids don't break my heart anymore". Guess what? When I do this [B]I'M MISSING THE JOY OF TODAY.[/B] I understand there are days/periods of days and weeks where life feels unbearable. But, I was constantly living in the past or pining for what the future would bring - I was missing what each day brought. Don't miss todays blessings-- that's what I hear Suz and everywoman saying. In spite of less than perfect circumstances they can see the blessings too. They are not being robbed of the joy of today. A very wise way to live in my humble opinion. Hugs. [/QUOTE]
