Such beautiful words. It’s not easy loving some of those in your life, I try, but fail constantly. I’m sad about my family and what’s going on in the world. I want peace, but there is nothing. I pray, but the world pulls you into the ugliness it offers. I want to love and I do, but it’s hard, life’s hard. Thank you for reminding my heart, it can still love despite what life hands your way. God bless x

Oh gosh Doreen, thank you for sharing... My heart goes out to you. Life is not supposed to be hard. But you know, I lived like that for over 40 years of my life. We had a saying when I grew up, life is tough in Africa.

The reality is that it is our perception of life that makes it seem hard. It is what we choose to focus on that creates our reality. If we watch the news, hang out with negative people and focus on what we don't have in our life. What we are missing. Then that is how we experience life.

Instead, if we consider being grateful for what we do have. What we love. Who we love. What gives us joy. Focusing on this will change our experience of life.

Remember we can't fix others, we can't make decisions for them. But we can love them unconditionally. This means, it doesn't matter what they do or say, we love them. We don't even have to talk to them or see them. But we can still love them. There are no expectations.

What is important that we take responsibility for our own life and how we live it. And it all comes back to doing things we love doing. Things that bring us joy. I find that going on walks into nature help ground me and be more present. Remind me to be grateful.

Sending you unconditional love Doreen and wishing all the best for you. x
