When we are children and stories are read to us, we feel better when there is a happy ending. In fact, most fairy tales end ”happily ever after.” It makes us feel good. We have an inward desire to be happy and want happiness.
With our busy lives we don’t often take the time that is needed to reflect on what positive things are happening in our lives every day. They are there, we just have to find them.
It would be nice if someone could reassure us that everything will always be ok. This is where faith steps in. It is not possible to protect our family, friends and those that mean so much to us…24/7. Life happens. Unfortunate events occur. Illness creeps into the lives of those we care about, and causes pain.
Keep in mind that we have to find happiness throughout each day, every day. This is how our stories evolve. If we participate in happiness each day, we will have a “happy ending.” Don’t wait for the ending…find it now! Look around you.
It may not be perfect, but it may be just what you need today. “Now, let’s get going!” xo Sally
