No room for rudeness!
Hello dear friends......
I have not been posting anything on my blog for quite a while because we weren't able to access the internet. I am so grateful to finally have the internet again and to be able to post some new things on my blog. Also, to be able to see all of your wonderful blogs, too, has been wonderful as I missed visiting your blogs so much. It is incredible how being able to write to different people all over the world has meant to me......it just lifts my spirits so much to have friends who appreciate so many of the same beautiful things in life. Thank you for your dear hearts and thoughts!!
I just wanted to share a few thoughts with you......things I have been thinking about. The most important thing on this earth and in this life is that we learn to be kind to other people and to care about them. We are born as good, beautiful and kind human beings. We need to recapture that beautiful spirit of love and thoughtfulness. We need to remember that nothing means as much in our lives as our spirit, our soul, the person we are deep inside. When we leave this life, we will take nothing with us except the lessons we have learned about loving one another. I pray that we can do better in that way and that people will show more respect for one another. We are all so near the edge of life anyway. If we really knew people for who they are, we would change our attitude immediately. God Bless those who see the true hearts of people and who show kindness, humility and respect to others in this world. We deeply need it. I pray that I can remember how happy I feel when someone smiles at me or shares with me a feeling of love and kindness. Thank God for people who are kind. Thank God for those whose priorities are in order.....whose hearts see what is truely important in this life......to be kind and thoughtful and respectful.
I am grateful for all of you who are trying to share the beauty and goodness that is all around us. Thank you so much for your sweet spirits!

Sounds like a rough time of it for you! (I guess we knew there'd be many people out there 'past feeling'... Still don't like it).
I know what you mean. A cousin of mine died last week. She'd had health issues since she had a cancerous tumor removed from her spine at age 11. Constant pain for the bulk of her life and real, physical limitations in what she could do. Her funeral was amazing - she spent her life dealing with her stuff with humor, grace, and long-suffering patience. And emphasized that our emotional and spiritual health and wellbeing are so much more important than the physical -either physical health or physical 'stuff'. I feel badly for those who are so stuck in the physical that they can't remember who they -or all of us- are! I pray to be able to approach them, and life, like my cousin - with humor, grace and patience.
Good luck!
Oh my, what a post... I hope you have re-covered and can now look back at the incident a little more easily... It is a shame how manners have all but disappeared these last few decades... I see it daily - it takes so little for someone to be kind and courtious rather than rude and mean... Hold tight to what you love and move forward...
That was such a heartfelt post. I agree with you that there are just too many people out there that are too selfish and uncaring.
On the other hand I feel uplifted by meeting people like you and your readers.
There are so many loving, caring and talented people in this world, and luckily we can find each other through our art.
I hope you are feeling better and that the situation you found yourself in is now resolved.
