The path to transcendent sensibility is neither even nor easy
at times, but the difficulty of the journey sometimes turns out
to be a blessing. Indeed, there are ways in which the pain we
suffered yesterday increases our power to work miracles today.

Wow what a wonderful way Marianne Williamson has of putting the idea of our very strengths and areas that we can help others coming out of our own past challenges and hurts.

Isn't this the truth...Marianne says it very well...I managed to find the blessings in the painful events of my past rather than dwell on the pain. I'm actually very grateful for all that I've been through because it's made me the strong woman I am today. It has given me the strength to survive anything...a strength that goes deep to my core. It also gave me the courage of my convictions, and the strength of my faith.

No I haven't but I know she is a very popular author. Maybe I should check it out I really really like the way she stated that.

what a great thing when reading a book can deliver us far from the bitter cold of the season.

Thank You HealthyLiving, and you do the same.

Hoping you have a great holiday,

I wish everyone here at CS whatever name to the holiday they Celbrate, may it be blessed with the warmth of family and the radiant heat of laughter..
