Laughter and smiles are contagious.  I have experienced some days that may have contained very little of either.  There is nothing worse than feelings of depression.
Hopefully most of this has been accelerated by hormone imbalance as I am aging...
I am back on track, with the doctors help; moving toward a healthy, happier me.

As I ponder the life I have lived, and the one I now live, I find it interesting how easily we can lose sight of all that is so important for true happiness.  I believe we "need" God close to us every day.  When I had nothing, it was so easy to rely on Him to see me through.  I now struggle with taking the time I need to know Him.

I have many struggles, completely different than anything I have experienced before. 

My life has turned and moved and thrown me around like a crashing wave in the ocean.  I have not really known which way is up. 

I have a life full of love, friendship, compassion, understanding and so much more.....
Lord, help me find direction, help me find motivation, guide and direct me in this path I am on.
