Love Opened up Hope and Happiness to a Life DerailedWe plan our lives to live out our dreams hoping only the best will come, But life at best is a mixed bag-- it works out smoothly only for some. I thought myself to be of the few to live a charmed and good life, and so I did for many years-- until the swift death of my wife. It seemed then my life was over for my world came crashing down, to my life I became a stranger no sense of normal to be found. Life can change for good or bad I now knew this first hand, We think we're building a foundation but it turns into crumbling sand. But to me God was merciful His providence He would provide, beyond my own ability to change He showed me He was on my side. Seeking help to deal with my grief I turned to the Internet, just wanting to make it through each day but much more was coming that death. On one site I met someone who lived half a country away, who used her own expereience of widowhood to bless others in the same way. And so she offered a book she'd wrote without charge to those who mourned, I called to thank her for it and a new friendship was born. A growing love soon developed the gift of a caring God, Who helps us in our infirmities and who changed the way I thought. No my life was not yet over for Love's for had been opened for me, a new life emerged from the rubble He light shone in the darkness for me. The new love and life He gave us transformed two people in need, so in our hearts Love blosomed and so did our darkness receed!~ Yes, love made all the diff'rence the diff'rence of Night and Day, And now with each wonderful sunrise Life thrives for us in every way!
