Things did not seem to go in the right direction much during the day. I reminded my husband, "No one died... this is nothing, let it go."   It is really hard in life to let go of the stuff we can do NOTHING about.  It is not even about tomorrow being a new day, how about the next moment is a new moment in life with no mistakes in it?

First Sunday in Advent. HOPE

   © +Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2017 HOPE  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Available Paintings by Laurie Pace  Follow me on Facebook           Sign up for my monthly studio newsletter. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There seems to be a building change here in the United States. There is a growing population that has chosen to be unaffiliated with religion and God.  It is focused on "ME"  more than anything else. They replace God with Tolerance.  No one dare question them - "me" - for their behavior or their beliefs.  It is hard at my age to see children being raised so far away from the God. It is easy to talk of faith, but not easy to WALK the faith. It is not easy to LIVE the faith. It is not easy to DIE for the faith.  ...
