counting my blessings thanking God that at soon to be 60 I am healthy enough to drive for hours, jump out of the car and after working out the kinks go compete on the track. Even though I will complete trip #60 around the sun in December, I sure don't have everything figured out yet. I remember when I was younger thinking how wise some older folks were and seemed to have answers for every situation. I am still waiting for that wisdom to come to me. I have certainly learned a lot along the way, but I have enough wisdom to know that there is much I still don't know and some things I probably don't need to know. I have certainly had my share of failures. Still learning life lessons from them also, including some that were long ago. Trying not to beat myself up over them.
I have also learned there is only so much one person can do. Like the church sign says, Let Go and Let God. I am learning to do that more the older I get. I guess I better get to the Love and Acceptance like the title says. All the work, fun, play and busyness that our lives consists of is surely important, but I don't want to let those distract me from my relationship with God, my family and friends. I am so driven at times I lose sight of that. Let Go and Let God. What if we all accepted who we are and loved like God. Why can I not get over myself and just say God made me and loves me(Every One) just as we are. Why can I not love like God. None of us are perfect yet God forgives us anyway. Why do we not forgive ourselves. Hard to forgive, love and accept others if you can't do the same for your self. I hope my remaining time on earth that I will simply enjoy life, love my family, friends, and self the way Jesus loves us. Peace and Love.
