"It is what it is, but it will become what you make it."
- Victor Standish
Yesterday I received an email denying me any unemployment benefits since I was fired.
It was a sucker punch I wasn't expecting.
I walked out to my car, Gabrielle, to sort things out with the Father.
Under my windshield wiper was a neon-pink stickie note with three hand-drawn hearts and the words:
BETTER DAYS ARE COMING
I really needed those words done in a feminine hand.
Who had left it?
The day before I was leaning against my car after my exercise walk when a perky young lady walked by asking, "How are you?"
"Almost good."
"Only almost?"
"At least I'm heading in the right direction."
She bubbled a nice laugh and got into her car next to mine.
I only know that it was there when I needed it.
I am glad that I prayed for her as she left just because of the sweetness of her laugh.
I walked into my apartment feeling better. Then, I saw this YouTube which was another gift:
And yes, I prayed then for both the little boy and the small dog.
It's who I am.
