Dinner with the what ifs...

This week was different than most. It was a week of surprises and flip turns of life as I stated earlier. You know you never know when things like this will come up...most of the time surprises of life seem to happen when life is getting mundane, normal, routine. This week I have learned that through all of the struggles in life I have to remain a child. What I mean by that is I have to stop having dinner with the what ifs and dessert with the what will we dos. Kids are so innocent in their thinking. When they see that someone is sad they simply try to cheer that person up. They don't ask why, or when, or how...kids just trust that whatever is wrong will be fixed. I love that! Where in life do we all of the sudden stop that way of thinking? I truly am learning to live life in the present. I can't look to my past nor can I look to the future. If I do that I am trying to take control of things that I simply have no control over. It is so much easier just to think like a child...as challenging as that can be!
