This morning, I am sharing a meditation I wrote for my class yesterday. 

Have you ever had the opportunity to focus on sand? Bear with me for a minute. Sand can be very hard or soft and if we are not paying attention, we could start sinking pretty quickly if we find ourselves in quicksand. Sand helps to fill things in and level things whether doing yard work or building a house. It is one layer that helps create structure and beauty. In the timely sense, the hourglass filled with sand reminds us that time will not slow down, and when we walk on sand, we leave footprints. And these footprints turn into hundreds and show us how the world keeps moving and everyone is on a path of their own. We all have things to focus on, and it is crucial that we stop from time to time and make sure we are keeping a clear perspective. Whatever we do, we must keep going. And when we find ourselves sinking, remember that as long as we donโ€™t panic, we will find a way out. 

Wherever you find yourself in this moment, take a deep breath, smile, and know the day is going to be amazing no matter what we face. It is not what happens to us, it is how we are able to respond and keep going when it gets hard. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿปโค๏ธ #godisgood #healthjourney #blessed #encouragement
