The Words You Speak and The Words You Accept

I sit hear in the quietness of our little home, Soundscapes playing lightly, with a mind full of thoughts.  The headaches of been more frequent lately preventing me from writing so I have a million things jumbled into my head.  Many can look at where I lived in Florida and compare it to where I am now and draw a world of conclusions.  I've listened to some of those things over the last week and came to the conclusion it's all how you choose to see it.  I don't have a dishwasher or a pool, yet I am happier than I have ever been.  I haven't "downgraded,"  I have "upgraded."  I don't see a "dump", I see a cozy little place filled with love.  This is a temporary place as God moves us to the next leg of our journey and I am going to appreciate and be happy in it.

Be careful and mindful of the words you speak to others.  Those words can sting and hurt or lift and encourage.  Be even more careful of the words you accept into your life.  They can bring you down or lift you up.  Just a little something that was on my heart this morning.  I pray I am a light and encouragement to you in a sometimes dark and cruel world.  If I have ever wronged you with the words I have spoken I apologize.  Words may not break your bones, but if you allow them they can break your spirit.  Don't ever give anyone that power over you and if you have that power over someone else please use it with care.  That's all for now (but I have lots more crammed into this head).  I love you guys, have a great and blessed weekend!
