Ok Not To Be Ok!

Sometimes we smile, even though we yearn to scream.

Sometimes we laugh, even though we feel like crying.

Sometimes we stand strong, even though our souls are shaken.

Sometimes we encourage others, even though we are discouraged.

Sometimes we offer a shoulder for others to cry on, even though we need one.

Let the weak say they are strong.

Let the poor say they are rich.

But sometimes, it's ok not to be ok!

There are days when I totally identify with your words, and inside I'm screaming, "Why do I always have to be the strong one? Why do I always have to be the sane one?" Thank you for this, for letting me know I'm not alone in feeling that way!

Wonderful wisdom and timeless advice in this piece. I love your expressionism! One of my favorite sayings is, "If you want an outpouring of love, then love. If you want a outpouring of encouragement, encourage others. For your desires may not occur the time you want it but it will happen the time that you most need it."
Keep the faith and always look up to the Lord, and He will shine warmth in your heart.
Yours in the loving name of Jesus,

John Michael
