It is easy to get caught up in the swirl of all things you.
It is easy to think that your life, your hurts, your slights are worse than what others are going through. It is easy to wallow in the "Woe is me." and not hear the pain of others. But everyone has their story and sometimes it gives your life a reality check to listen to someone else's. This has been my reality check - eight months ago, a co-worker I worked with briefly last summer at the theatre had an ATV accident, ended up in a coma and life as they knew it was changed. Thankfully, three months later, he emerged and now they are both working on their new normal. Now I am not a religious person. I'm not even a nice person some days but the love and the faith that these two share is awe-inspiring. Harrison's wife, Hayley has started a blog and you can read her first entry here - in the dark, there is light. Perhaps your angry moments of the day will smooth out and you'll find the beauty in your life and your loves. Because underneath the "Woe is me." there is hope to be found, there is light be seen, there is joy to experienced. There is love.
