Blue Or Grey

I got a phone call just now, which reminded me of a low moment in the lives of ourselves and one of our foster children. A moment when everything could have fallen apart.

But it didn’t, and that particular foster child has come a long way, and as an adult still comes round to visit. In fact at the moment he’s helping me out with a project in the back garden.

The bad moments in time are just that. Moments. Clouds. They pass by, and they don’t have to define anything in the long term.

That is also true of any “bad” moments we experience today. In fact, in that respect they are just the same as “good” moments.

They will all contribute to this experience that we call life. And while we are right to try and make things better, we should also fully live the experience of that which already is. However it presents itself.

Whether Blue Or Grey, the sky is full of wonder.
