It is not often I remember my dreams but last night I had a dream, I had a dream about an open gate, and this morning I woke up with a lightness, which I haven't felt in a long while, when I looked up the meaning of the dream, it means being set free, free to find yourself, free to discover who you are........................................I Had a dream.............
I know a few people are wondering when I will find the words, to write about the changes that have been happening in my life............... I don't think I ever will it is really too painful, and not for all ......... but my special friends to know about, ........... I don't think I want to discuss it or think about it ever again, from the beginning I put it in God's hands and gave him full control, so I am not going to take it back, however, listening to this old song yesterday made me realise that even if I did have the inclination to write something I could never say it better than the lyrics to this old song................
So many words we didn't say,Where did we go?
Two people lost in a storm
Where did we go?
We lost what we both had found
You know we let each other down
We played the games that people play
We made our mistakes along the way
Sometimes I know deep in my heart
You needed me
Because I needed you so desperately
We were too blind to see
But then most of all
(Still by Lionel Richie)
HI Dear Karen,
ReplyDeleteYou write so beautifully. I really like the way you write and express the simplest of things. There are some things that we cannot say, it is understood. I have not have seen the world more than you do and i may never get to know what you would have underwent, but i just want you to know that You are a person who could influence others. Your writing has so much power and it makes me think of what i feel about certain things that happened in my life. I may not be able to write them all. I wish that you maintain this feeling of happiness and relief that you are feeling. With all the love. Ratz
Good luck on your journey through that open gate. Healing and scars are part of life. It seems like you're doing a great job of facing challenges. I wish you the best!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a very positive sign. I'm glad you're feeling lighter and freer. Good luck on your journey.
ReplyDeleteHi, Stumbled across your path(blog) this evening. Nice to meet You:) I noticed that you mention putting God in Control of your circumstances. My Bible study group just finished a book called "Finding God's Path Through Your Trials" by Elizabeth George . It is a wonderful study on the 1st chapter of James. May God Bless you!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone, for your good wishes, it is always so much easier when there are people on your side, praying for you, will try and get a copy of the book, thanks again
ReplyDeleteKaren,
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog again. You are so right and so wise when you say you have given "it" to God and you aren't going to pick it back up. If all of us could only apply that to our lives, what a difference it would make!
As far as schooling kids go, I have decided that there is no perfect answer. We all want our kiddos to have the very best there is, but not any situation is perfect. They all have their downfalls - homeschooling included. It's one of my life's issues that I've had to give to God...and try to leave it there! Sometimes, though, I'm not as good as it as you are! Have a blessed week!
I understand- sometimes things are too close to our hearts to share. And sometimes they weigh so heavily on our shoulders that we need to shift the burden - and give our trouble to God. What a wise thing to do. Will keep you in my prayer- have enjoyed meeting you over at Mom Loop. I'm here for the Mom Loop Friday follow:)
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to echo Shannon and Ratz here, you write beautifully and yes, it is quite wise to be able to know when our burdens are too great for us to carry alone. I'm here from the Mom Loop Friday Follow! Nice to meet you!
