I shall be satisfied with the life I am given, with the people I am blessed with, with the home I am provided with. I shall be satisfied when the answer is no, when I don't get what I pray for, when the doors to what I adore close. I shall be satisfied in the future I am called to, and joyful in its inner workings. I shall be satisfied when I release to God what I want, and I shall be satisfied whether that bird returns to me or flies away forever.
Too many times we get caught up in what we want, we try to control the direction of our lives. We want what God has not given us, and we keep living like we're going to get it. Miss M, close to my heart, dear love, you wanted to be a mom, and prepared for it. Yet there you are, still teaching, probably beyond the age of child bearing. A new prayer, I ask God, to give to you. And a new dream. My love, amore, W. Still the bachelor, still waiting for life to start, still searching in all the wring places because you know what you want...and you'll go to almost any level to get it. Owning a house, having a job, having every aspect, still wanting to put in that empty piece. But what if this is the life allotted to you? And what if you are meant to serve Him as you are? Not every man is Adam, my love, and not every woman is Eve.
