ITS THE SIMPLE THINGS

Most of my creative and profound writing tends to come from God's whispers, simple thought someone shares with me, from a mistake a made or from merely having an "aha" moment. Sitting and writing about these things fills my heart and brings me joy. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

You Cannot Win Them All.

​I had a hard conversation today. The talk was over, nothing really changed. It was difficult to see that although I prepared and prepared and even asked others to pray, the outcome was clear. The person made it clear. They will only look at things that they can see and understand in their world. There was no interest to step into mine, they didn’t want to understand or ask questions about my side.
They could not see I tried to seek to understand by entering their world and believing from them the best.
I left free and at peace, but I also felt grief. I was sad to see, the person didn’t see me. 
As I walk near a wise young man (my son), he said mother what happened, why the look of sadness you so clearly carry. I told my son I feel great about a conversation today, for I did my best, I think that is what God will say. I feel at peace, so much order is surreal, yet there is a sadness in me that is making me grieve. I am sad about the outcome of the conversation today, in the end, it was clear, they were unwilling to change.
My son looked at me with compassionate eyes; he said I love you, mom, and it is clear you are sad. But you did your best, just remember you can’t win them all. And just like that, I realize that the grief I felt had nothing to do with my friend, but it was because the reality is, I cannot win them all.
