On Life and Living.
Several circumstances have made me step back and look at life from a different perspective. I have seen personally that there is much merit in what the Bible teaches about living for today and not worrying about tomorrow. In fact, I was going to save this post to post it tomorrow, but now that I think about it, who knows what tomorrow may bring? Maybe someone will benefit today from reading this post, as I am benefiting from writing it. What do I know? I know that I am alive today, and that I have a home wherein I can entertain and feed my friends, and I know that I can give hugs to friends with hurting hearts. I can call my dad today. I can write to my sister today. (Although I won't since I have heard from a reliable source that she has written to me, so I will wait for her letter to arrive and respond immediately. And if an out-of-control Fed Ex truck comes careening into my bedroom tonight, and I am rendered unable to respond to her letter, she will know that I love her.) I can make tea and invite a friend to share a leisurely afternoon with me. I can write to a dear friend on the other side of the country and brighten her day. I do just need to live for today and not worry about tomorrow. I need to focus on all the good things I can do, and do them.

I agree 100 percent with your conclusion and enter into it myself.
Just in case my missing copy of Bleak House falls out of the sky onto my head--I love you, too!
I'm sorry your book is missing. A most horrific and bleak circumstance, in my opinion! You can borrow my copy if yours doesn't fall out of the sky-or come crawling out from under the couch. Have you checked the fridge? I've found missing items there before.
You encourage me amiga because you live out what you have written. I'm so thankful to God for your friendship-more thankful than you know. But I had to let you know today because I never know what tomorrow might bring.
