Hardships And Easy Sailing

"Hardships". This photo was taken at an early morning surprise breakfast for my birthday as I am making my wish before blowing out the candle. Thank you family! This bowl of strawberries with a candle in it was a make-shift birthday cake. I can't have much to eat like most everybody else, but I can join in festivities anyways. Yes, many times, it's hard, but it's harder to NOT be a part of life. Not always easy sailing. In fact, most times, it's not. No complaints. Just thanks that I still sail...in my hardship. Anyway, the thought behind the breakfast and the cake was deliciously sweet of them. I love it. It's the li'l things, you know. Just hearing or knowing that someone cares... Is food for the soul. Now, that's a food I can eat alot of. And, that can make hardships easier to sail. Gives me an anchor and wind for my sails. It's a blessing to have others astern. Alongside, Even aft or forward. For all the times we are sailing leeward or windward. And, I see Him in all of it. Well, because He IS all of it. Oh! And, my wish? Can't tell!  But!  I will say?  It was more like a prayer!!  Can't you tell by the photograph? PIMP LOL.  One last thought? If you ever feel like jumping ship or bailing out? Don't be a dinghy! At least, jump on someone else's and give them a hand with the sail! Until you can make some headway! Besides we'll all be on the main ship together someday. We should learn to sail together now. Okay! I know alot of you know some sailing terms and good comebacks for this. I love it when you sail along with me. Cuz... ♪ ♫ sailing takes me away to where I'm going...do-do-do-do-do-do... ♪ ♫  See ya out on the waves.   Trace
