Days Gone By

Good Day Beloved,

Well, back to work I go. My medical leave has come to an end. I went and looked back at the first go around of this blog. Some of my words still ring pretty true. That’s good, right. I did come to the conclusion that I am way too good at compartmentalizing the different parts of my life. I think I might have a handle on why I do this but I wonder why people in general compartmentalize their lives.

Why are people so afraid of letting the ones they care about really know them? Mmm, that is too deep a well for me to get into but I know that our Creator knows the answers. Don’t we all wish we knew what the answers are. With the crap that is happening, Covid, elections, civil unrest, terror, crime… so very much that produces worry in our lives. Sometimes I think it might be better in the days of my parents generation when news did not travel so fast. Crap still happened, it just did not spread on social media like it does now. Am I just kidding myself with that thinking? Maybe this is just showing how old my thinking is. Ah, the good old days, I don’t really think there is such a thing.

All we can do is make the best of what we have in front of us right now. Yes? Yes. I think we each have a responsibility to be our best selves so that one day in the future people can really say that the days gone by were good days because we set them up to be good. Do you follow that? A person can hope right? I think I’m going close with a line from my old blog.

Beloved, here is a bear hug, a kiss on the cheek and an I love you in your ear.

In His Service and Yours
