** On my prayer list **
My friend MJ... She just can-not seem to get a break this year. Her hubby has Dementia/Alzheimer's and isn't doing well at all, then her youngest daughter has had a very difficult time with her pregnancy resulting in losing the baby...MJ is with her now and missing out on celebrating the holidays. I'm sad ☹ for her, I'm sad for me, because I'm not sure what to say....I do however know how to 'just BE' and that's what I'll do when MJ gets home...
** Reflection` **
✨Life isn't happening to you, You are happening to your Life✨
Hope you had a wonderful Christmas yesterday! Hear you on the holidays being different the past few years (AND the family dramas), finally felt a bit balanced over here again this year. I'm so very sorry for your friend and her daughter's loss. Prayers for peace for them. Hope you have a great rest of your week.
