What has occurred in Japan has been terrifying and leaves me feeling helpless. I try to take deep breaths and count my blessings. I think when your children are envolved, like you, the worry meter tends to go in overdrive.

The situation is truly devastating in Japan and I continue to pray for them daily. I am happy to hear your son is safe and he speaks the truth; we can not live in fear. Whether it is a natural disaster, illness or being hit by a car, our lives will end and the best we can do is to live each day to its fullest and know we have lived an enriched life.<br />I pray for positive energy and peace within...Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12795817810030681267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800160462094633117.post-40448865091260322122011-03-20T18:39:55.555-07:002011-03-20T18:39:55.555-07:00Thanks so much for your lovely comment on my blog!...Thanks so much for your lovely comment on my blog!<br /><br />Wishing you peace of mind....Bossy Bettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12568355839499622409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800160462094633117.post-14118565289297308472011-03-20T09:03:26.508-07:002011-03-20T09:03:26.508-07:00Stay safe and leave the rest to God.

The first year she was there a terrible hurricane hit the coast where she lived. <br />One summer, the mountains around the city we live in had a firestorm. Houses burned down and exploded; they couldn't put it out and it burned for weeks. I think anything can happen anywhere, so why worry ahead of time.Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14175778756449339363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800160462094633117.post-47542592040968067452011-03-19T17:47:09.408-07:002011-03-19T17:47:09.408-07:00We can only change and help so much, what we canno...We can only change and help so much, what we cannot, we shouldn't worry about.

It is my understanding (from my own life experiences) that there are two possible energies emanating from our thoughts: fear and love. So yes, if you can, try to trade up your fear thoughts for thoughts based in love and faith. Focus on beauty and hope where you can. This is how we all really can make a difference. Just like the song, "let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me..."<br /><br />It's not easy, but it is true. Take a breath. Seek reasons to be joyous and add to the collective ah. :) Who knows, maybe our thoughts are mother nature's fuel?<br /><br />In the meantime, here's a big hug for you.Mishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01758902060937156702noreply@blogger.com
