I seek progress, not perfection. I was raised in crisis, lived in crisis, and liked my ignorant bliss. I can identify with Lucy. It switched to carrying other peoples drama. After a tragic crash landing, I woke up. Wondering, am I still alive? Eyes wide open; ugly truth in my face - "I give up, Uncle!" I don't have to take the wheel. I don't drive. No more game ... no more blame. Lolly, as you wrote above: "Seek grace in your life......" As I do, my day evolves into a beautiful existence. I am blessed because I simply 'am'. I am blessed because "He" simply 'Is'. I make a plan for the day and smile, because I have seen it turn into detours of blessing. People I meet in the grocery store, a telephone call, a surf on the web, where ever...... results in a blessing for them, or a blessing for me, and sometimes both! And gently, I am surrounded in the warmth of love. I smile ... and whisper ... thank you for driving. Lolly, thank you for the reminder. I am putting you in my favorites.

I feel very at peace with most of my life now but I find that I have friends who just cant get away from the constant drama. Their drama pours over into my life now. Maybe because I can be a good ear since I am in a calm spell. I see what you mean on the looking for it because I swear that is what they do. Lucy This is how my life used to be.
