I don't doubt there is life in me. I know there is. Some people can't see that though. All they see is that I don't ride a horse. So, I just keep on walking and knowing that it doesn't matter what they think. Most of them have been thrown a couple of times and gotten back on and are patting themselves on the back for getting back on. They think what they have been through is the same thing as what I have been through, but I don't think so. I really don't.

Each of us walk a different path through life, and for some there is more suffering than others. I think of young children with cancer, sexual abuse, rape, those who survived the Holocaust, torture... the list goes on and on. We can either choose to look at the glass half full or half empty. It is all in perspective. I had a dear saint tell me one time when I was really going through some things, and felt so overwhelmed. She said to find someone worse off than you, and do something for them, and it will get your mind of where you are at. It took me a while to do that, but I began to look around at other people's problems, and situations, and realized mine wasn't so bad, that I couldn't get up and keep walking. Keeping our focus on Christ first and foremost helps in every situation. It really is all about perspective, about whether you choose to focus on Christ, or focus on your problems.
I'm glad that you're still walking sister!
