I sometimes wonder why some people seem to have it all while others are made to suffer or go through trials; and it seems that no matter what they do, they never get ahead. Yet all I can do is trust in the Lord and know that He will get me through whatever comes my way! Well done; feelings well justified!

I just love this. You are an amazing writer of pithy, yes I spelled that correctly, stuff. True, on the outside some seem to be more blessed than others but we who focus on the inside where life is really lived know that what's in our hearts make us richer by far than most. Blessings and hugs. Keep warm. J'nia
But grass grows better OVER the septic tank as I have one in my yard and it doesn't matter the weather, the time of year or lack of water, its always growing in that one spot...as for envy, the green monster unfortunately always seems to rear its ugly head around me, but I try to not allow it to affect me...ed
