Written by Arleen M. Kaptur

Surely hurt feelings and heartaches do just that - hurt. We can, however, take allrepparttar pieces and put them together. No, it will never be exactly as it was before it broke, but it will be. It was a part of yesterday, and today is a new day leading torepparttar 123860 future. The pieces glued together let us know that there is a continuity no matter what happens, andrepparttar 123861 crack marks are a reminder that nothing is permanent. The tiny impossible to pick up pieces belong torepparttar 123862 wind andrepparttar 123863 breeze of reflection will carry them away to become a part ofrepparttar 123864 universe. Everything has its purpose and when it breaks, we put it together as best we can, place it in a very special place, and openrepparttar 123865 door to step into tomorrow.

Hurts heal, tears dry up, and feelings mend. Hearts are miraculous in that they never forget but they do forge ahead. With each day, memories are more golden and heartaches lose their sting. You need patience and like that old saying, “Give me patience and right now!” doesn’t work. Its using each day to mend, to forget and to look ahead that really counts. People are miracles looking for somewhere to happen. You can be encouragement to others and heal your own heart. A person can face each day bravely andrepparttar 123866 night rewards you with rest. With a little effort and a whole lot of courage, our broken plate becomes a marker to separaterepparttar 123867 past from today. It will always be there but it has a new mission, an opportunity to become a memory. Ah, memories are what golden dreams are made of. They arerepparttar 123868 glitter and shine ofrepparttar 123869 past, andrepparttar 123870 glow of tomorrow. Cherish them and love each and every one of them. The path torepparttar 123871 future will be well lit and a joy to travel. ENJOY! ©Arleen M. Kaptur 2002 June

What's In Your Closet?

Written by Arleen M. Kaptur


Continued from page 1

Skeletons inrepparttar closet should be removed and discarded. At some point, they may attempt to sneak back into your closet, but remain firm. If you don’t allow them access,repparttar 123859 only move left for them is to return torepparttar 123860 depths of long ago and stay there. Each morning brings light, adventure, opportunities, and change. Today is not going to allow yesterday to hang on, unless someone ties them together purposely. Also, remember, that tomorrow won’t arrive until we undo these ties and handle them withrepparttar 123861 gloves of cold, hard facts. They were, and therefore they are not today!

Open your closets and begin cleaning them out. The skeletons that you have tended to all these times are just dust collectors. They are not alive, but you are. You give them their strength and their endurance and only you can take it back. Closets are places to keep assorted items, and skeletons are definitely not one of them. ENJOY! ©Arleen M.
