Unsettlement

Unsettlement





The heart wants to love
yet we fight each other with unkindness and hate

The heart wants to reason
yet we are often ridiculed

The heart wants stability
yet we are unbalanced

The heart wants to help
yet we are selfish

The heart wants to trust
yet we are dishonest

The heart wants to see the truth
yet we are still blind

The heart wants to hear
yet we are mute

The heart wants to be flexible
yet we are rigid

We must overcome the things that divide us apart
and concentrate on what can bring us together.

There’s always a risk involved. However, despite what might happen there are endless conceivable outcomes. Today, my probability is to succeed the odds.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving "Thanksgiving isn’t just about celebrating a traditional holiday. It’s about giving thanks to God and being grateful. Each day take the opportunity to enjoy life, have fun, breathe, smile, laugh and help someone less fortunate. Make an investment to wish someone happiness, good health, prosperity, and success. Most of all take time to look around and notice how blessed you are."                                                                                 -Darlena Swann
