Finding Strength

Seems like everyone, in some way or another, is struggling right now. Maybe it's the weather, the after-Christmas blah, the economy, the need for change.....

Whenever I seek inspiration, I think back to this video and have pulled it up more than once to remind myself of how lucky we are to have each other. Blogland is a weird place.....but from it, I've found a network of friends that I treasure. Add that to my family and real-life friends and I consider myself blessed.

I've posted it a couple times before and will continue to do so.....love this by Kelly Corrigan.....the book mentioned at the end if fabulous, too.

The video wouldn't play when I tried, but I'll try again later.

I hate this economy. It absolutely stinks. I'm tired of seeing the friends I love fall on hard times. And yesterday, my husband called me from work saying his company was doing a 10% across the board pay cut. That will ruin your day, my friend.

I find strength, like you, in the dear ones I am so blessed to share life with. In them and God, I find my contentment and happiness.

Great video clip and how true it was! Life is never easy or when you think it is easy, you fall into a huge hole on the path of life.

I remember feeling the same way you do this time last year and it seemed to drag on, but how can you not snap out of a funk with insiring words like that. Where would we be without girlfriends? Loved it, thanks for sharing.

I loved that book! It does remind you what it important. That is what I thought throughout the entire book. I need this reminder right now.
