ROWBOATS


[Ta...]

Recommended Posts

Found this today and I thought I'd share.

 

"We are like rowboats trapped in a fierce storm out at sea and we need to focus on a single light in the distance like a lighthouse and work our way back to it, rowing slowly but steadily through the storm, focusing only on the source of the light whenever it sweeps across the water and never on all the tossing and turning and scary huge waves that threatened to suck us under at anytime down below where it's so painful.

We can substitute the lighthouse with other images!!!  I substitute for my beautiful husband and 3 gorgeous children.

That was a nice explanation.  Thank you.  I have a Thomas Kinkade embroidery kit called, Clearing Storms, with a lighthouse in it.  I try to focus on Jesus at night in bed.

Thanks Becksblue.

Sometimes these little things help to distract us and give some relief. I noticed you jumped some time ago and I was wondering how your healing has gone.  Are you feeling well now.  I hope so.

I'm doing very poorly, to be honest.  Some people get worse and not better.  I have other issues, too.  Diagnosed with Thrombophilia years ago.  I'm at risk of stroke and heart attack and may have had a stroke.  Also diagnosed with Lupus and hypothyroidism.  I have no help here and live alone and it causes me alot of stress. No good support at all.  Everyone's healing or lack of is different.

So sorry to hear that you're doing poorly. I will have you in my loving thoughts and prayers.

I agree we are all different and healing happens in many shapes and forms.

Wishing you better days.

Thank you, Tallow and Marigold.  I have too much external stress on me each day and it's too much for me to deal with, and it's been that way since I got off the pills, which is why I'm not healing, too.
