This story was originally posted a year or so ago, I am not sure of the date, but I fixed a few things and updated it a bit. Basically, although the story is somewhat old, it is truly a timely message.
Does this title (It’s a new day and a new world) sound strange to you when considering everything going on the past week?
Another saying we likely heard a few times as well is “The day is what we make of it”.
When we change the way we view who we are and our responsibility to affect the world around us in a positive way, we actually change the world around us.
I believe these words wholeheartedly, and I know this is true because of my own efforts.
I know that life is not pleasant or beautiful when so much ugliness is around us, yet we see what we choose to see.
Just because we know the reality of life, it does not mean we have to be what the world says we have to be. We can be the kind of person we choose and live our lives accordingly!
I wrote a blog that no one was stopping by to read. I thought about deleting it and not write any more until I came across something I wrote earlier and decided to try writing again.
I had no idea of what to say until I started typing and the words just started forming on the page. I believe this is how we should live our lives; meaning that we shouldn’t think so much about what we are going to say or do, we just need to start doing it.
Who cares if anyone is paying attention to us or what we have to say! Right? We may never know who we affect by our words or even if we do, but we need to do it anyway – at least do it for ourselves.
Writing is how I came through depression after 9/11/2001, and it blessed my life. Eventually, the first book I wrote turned into a six book series. You can read about my books at this link: https://ourdaysolutions.com/about-treasure-box-series.
It’s true, I do hope that someone reads this posting because I believe there is inspiration in this writing. My point is that we have to live our lives according to the inspiration we receive right now. How else can we know how to face the scary times ahead and know what to do, unless we live by the spirit and the promptings that come to us?
Now, if you just happened to stop by for a visit, please leave me a note to let me know that you came by . . . just so I know that someone actually read this post. Although I don’t care whether you read it or not, being human, I do like knowing that I’ve been heard.
I’ve noticed that, as I write, I am becoming more and more confidant in who I am. Perhaps this is your solution as well for your own lack of confidence. Writing is very satisfying.
In conclusion, let me say that I hope people will become more comfortable with who they are and not try so hard to be acceptable to their peers.
That’s all for now. I don’t know when I will be checking back in so I hope you check into some of my other sites as well.
God bless,
Judith Sherman
