Turn away from wrath

I am not always the best at this, and tend to want to fight back....{which is necessary sometimes. wink! }.....but in life I have learned it is always a good idea to let soft answers turn away wrath.

Never sacrifice permanence on the altar of the immediate

I have had some thoughts cross my mind lately as I have observed my own humanity + humanity around me. Something that has stirred my soul and muddied the waters of my thoughts is this: Why do we feel as though we have to make exceptions, choose what we really don't want, settle, compromise, ....grasp?....
......Whatever happened to integrity, diplomacy, dying to self, loving others, ethics, truth and contentment? What is meant for you will not pass you by, and there is great peace in a life lived bathing in this truth.
Be still.

I have to say that I feel a bit of pressure these days....pressure to get everything ready for the party next week, pressure to get everyone's summer schedule worked out, pressure to remember everything on my to do list............and then I stop, and think.....everything is totally going to be ok. It will all work out. Enjoy this day...this moment. Don't pressure wash it away. {hardy har har!}Don't let the pressures of life overwhelm you. Take them one bite at a time and enjoy the beauty that pressure can and should bring!xo,Barb
