Quote of the day

Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you. [3Jan2010]

“ Butterfly! Butterfly! Butterfly!!!! ” Awww, I will probably never forget that moment. It was just really cute. He looked so young and free again. Happy. So maybe it is true. He did try and reach out, but it flew away beyond his grasp. It was fleeting. Like our feelings. Sometimes you just need to relax and wait. You might not find everything exactly the way you asked for it, but sometimes, usually, its better that way. When your prayers are answered in a totally unimaginable way, those are the best miracles. Everything has a way of working itself out to be the way it should. Sometimes not the way you want… but sometimes what you want isn’t what you want at all. I hope I am making sense. But it makes perfect sense in my head. Sometimes you ask for a special moment… but that would alter all the special moments later on in life….I won’t lie, I still wish for those ‘perfect’ scenes that play-out in my mind. Everything seems alive and passionate and true in there, but I know if they were to spill out and over into reality…well it just wouldn’t work out that way. Happiness is found in the now. In the hour of life. And with the help of God. Boy, do I need Your help God… I can’t continue because I’ll go to deep and confuse you all. And maybe, myself.

I hope he stops chasing that butterfly soon, and realizes he had a great thing going and that he should settle down a little more…. I hope.
