You can stand in someone else’s shoes, but you will never wear them like the person that they were meant for. Find your own path, walk out your own destiny…anything short of that, is a life that has been cheated.

I never wanted perfect, I just wanted you……..Helen

Too light, too dark, too mean, too nice, too quiet, too talkative, don’t have this, should of had that, too fat, too flat, too pretty, not pretty enough, too broke, just broke, too “saved” (is that possible?), still missing “the mark”, too much of this, but not enough of that…..gotta stay below the radar and fly above the storm clouds all at the same time yet stay relevant to the Call and purpose for my life…..at the end of the day I just want to see Jesus …sighs

You know…I have loved this song for a long time. Through the years, its’ meaning has become so much richer in my heart. One day I want this song to play at my wedding, but I just don’t want it to play….I want it to be real in my heart and I want it to be a real expression of the love that my husband will have in his heart toward me. I can’t imagine saying, “I Do”, with feelings any less than what is written in this song, I mean come on, this is worth waiting for, but I pray that God give me the wisdom to know when I am presented before such gift……

Country singer, Dan Seals, sang a song titled, Everything that Glitters is Not Gold. Funny how the shiny things catch the eye and for a moment you think that you really have something special and the things that really mattered and were true are tossed to the side ….and for what…something so superficial but yet feeds the eye of pride and the fickleness of desires. Oh but time……time is the best teacher of the foolish decisions that one has made. Time is the best teacher of what is lost, never to be gained again. Time wears off the “shiny”, the “glitter” that first catches the eyes and it shows that everything that glitters is not gold….it had no value at all but to rob you of what was really true to you.

It is okay to “keep it moving”, just make sure that you are moving in the right direction.

Peace, Helen
