Thieves

We all have thieves in our lives. Yes you do! Okay, so your house hasn't been robbed, your purse hasn't been stolen, your car is still in your garage. But you DO have thieves. We all do. These are the things we allow to steal our joy. To rob us of happiness. To stress us until we are walking time bombs. To just hack the heck out of our lives. Hear me well......we ALL have these things. They are dirty little black bubbles that float around in our brains and take up all the space where blessings should abide peacefully. They are hammers pounding away inside our heads where happiness needs to rest. They are worries that turn us into one big roaring pile of anxiety. They are blinders to the fact that we are so full of blessings we shouldn't be able to contain them, but yet we turn our backs on them and are fully loaded guns pointing at our thieves. Do NOT miss out on life because you are paddling upstream and think you have no way out of the boat, but to jump in the raging waters. I have been guilty of it....you have been guilty of it. We call it LIFE. What have you missed while hacking away at the thieves weeds? I daresay a LOT. Learn this if nothing else. Life is not meant to be lived with a spotlight pointed directly at you and your eyes blinded. Life is meant to be lived counting blessings, sitting in the shade of peace. Look around friends. You have them.....in spades.
