Yesterday was such a special day for me, marking my book’s birthday. I found myself taking in the realization that I accomplished something I had worked on for a very long time. Equally, if not more meaningful, I reflected on the ways I’ve been able to lift people up, to make a positive difference in their lives. This latter thought alone brings tears (of JOY) to my eyes.
Full transparency: my heart journey has had its ups and downs and twists and turns. As rewarding as it’s been, it’s also been challenging. As such, I found myself thinking about the many hiccups and setbacks along the way.
But you know what? Throughout the day, I felt God’s presence, reminding me to focus on the positive impact I’ve had on others. These incredible heart-finds, especially the smiling face with heart-eyes emoji, did just that. Interestingly, several smiling faces with heart-eyes emojis have found me over the years. Serendipity at its best!
We should always be mindful of how we can grow without allowing others’ actions or lack of action bring us down. Always stay true to ourselves, never give up, and remain open to encouraging signs along the way.
