What a contrast!!!

1 month ago, 

I saw glorious clear blue sky; 

I felt truly blissful, immensely grateful for everything and extremely peaceful;

I heard my children's endless spontaneous laughter; 

I sipped cold cloudy apple juice on warm summer days;

I spoke kindly, gently and lovingly;

Now, 

I see traffic congestion everywhere;

I feel feel increasing tension and frustration;

I hear endless whines and protest;

I drink countless cups of coffee;

I nag incessantly and speak in higher decibel;

Hmmmm what a contrast!!!! I need divine help! Father in Heaven, grant me patience in the midst of teaching my children, joy in the midst of chaos, and love in the midst of everything!!
