Contentment - the update
From your comments I draw these conclusions.
Home is where you find contentment...where richness dwells.
We need less of self absorption.
We need to savor good moments.
We need to inspire our own contentment...who else could do so well.
We need to believe in God's promises.
We need to find the good in our circumstances.
We need to have patience...even with ourselves...because we deserve it.
We may... just need to let go and just let it pass, whatever is going on. Then...
be still and know that God is God...and we are not.
And... being content is being connected... with God, family, friends, community.
This is what I heard you say. What do you think?

I'm going to have "one of those days" today. It's 5:40 and I already know that! Every minute is scheduled between my son's band concert this morning, my daughter's play this afternoon, and my out of town company arriving this afternoon.
BUT...I need to have patience and love and reflection today, too.

The way we live it, is our gift to him !
I'm just a vessel.
How can you continue to say so much with so few words?
May I sit at your feet?

Joanne, A good point - being adrift with our feelings and without a connection- we'll get lost.
LV, I will.
Patti, Yes you may :) then may I at yours?
Judy, Thanks for coming by. I appreciate it much.
