Sufffering Under Garbage

In my Father's Day post, I mentioned something about using this title for a post, well, here it is....lol. We all have different experiences that we can use to help others through difficult times, it's just a matter of whether or not we feel like sharing them with others.

It would take a hundred posts or blogs, to fill you in on what has gone on in my life. But the point would be to show that no matter how much garbage one goes through or feels suffocated by, there is always a moment of clarity where one sees that it's not as bad as one previously believed. Go and look at a garbage dump, and what do you see? You may see miles of garbage stacked up from what seems like miles into the air, filled by birds flying around, picking over what others have thrown out. But take a deeper, closer look....I mean, really, a microscopic look.....believe it or not...underneath all that garbage is soil that is being fertilized...life is still existing, regardless of what is on top!

I am a firm believer that if you don't have any drama in your life, you don't have much of a life. Drama comes in all forms to all people and it's not the same from person to person. I mention that because I was thinking of personal ads I've read where a man is looking for a woman but without drama.First off, why is it that it's always the woman with drama? Men have drama too! And why does a man feel like a woman he's looking for has to be perfect? Besides, drama either makes or breaks you, you either take it and make something of it or you allow it to overrun you!

I am not perfect! I have trouble getting up in the morning, I have trouble getting my day started, I have trouble getting caught up around the house, etc....you get the idea. BUT I am determined that I will overcome these things that keep me down. Regardless of what others think or what is said about me, my suffering has a purpose and over time that purpose will be showed to me.

If you are suffering, whether at the hands of others, or yourself, don't give up........there is a light just waiting for you to turn it on.
