I took a walk this afternoon along a pretty, winding path near a mini waterfall. It was beautiful and fulfilling to commune with nature for awhile.
I sat on the bench that I sat on almost 2 years ago when I was talking with my Dad in the nursing home on my cell phone. It made me miss him. It made me realize how much has happened over these past two years.
Thinking things over and counting all of the hardships that I've lived through, especially these past two years, I was saddened and frustrated and depressed. But then my perspective changed and I thanked God for a truly full life and the gift of experiencing just about everything both good and bad.
When I got back to work I was still tired, frustrated and depressed, but I did think about how I was grateful for a full life. This will be a work in progress.
Food For Thought:
Now if I could just fill this void of emptiness with something other than food. I have to find that fulfilling activity that gives me the pleasure I get with eating something. What will it be? Writing?
