Battered from the Storms of Life

How do you show gratitude?

I am grateful for my life’s journey.

My intentions were to walk a straight path.

But my journey gave me a battered path and took me down a cobblestone road.

• It was dusty.

• It was rough.

• It was worn.

• It was twisted.

• It was unmanageable.

• It was unruly.

• It was old.

• But it did not abandon me.

The most magnificent experience you can have is to come out on the other side of a storm knowing that despite what you went through, you didn’t feel abandoned. Don’t let life abandon you. Instead, abandon the load that causes you to abandon life.
