I think that it is such a great motivator and can lead in directions both up and down.

I think we have been programmed to believe in a sense of entitlement where we are going to be protected and provided for without the struggle and hassle of life's twists and turns. Quite honestly, the piece wrote itself....had a few words in mind, but tried to simply describe the churning going on inside right now. <BR/>Thank you, David for your prayers. I feel more strength knowing this. I really do.awarenesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06098432781380754899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17192698.post-67358575480667602562007-09-23T19:25:00.000-03:002007-09-23T19:25:00.000-03:00A lovely piece of writing.

I look forward to figuring out the lessons in the land of discomfort! :)<BR/><BR/>Tara.....when I read your take on the prompt....aspersions......I couldn't help but think our pieces this week compliment one another. <BR/><BR/>Hey Redness.....yes it can be very scary. But, I do believe we're not alone when we are feeling the most discomfort because I have this sneaky suspicion that God may be hanging out there too...perhaps nestled in the silent shadows. <BR/>btw....Virgos ROCK!
