When I get overwhelmed with the weight of the world, I tend to feel numb. I hope while you "sit here in this space," there's a warm breeze in your face. There's an overarching aura of disbelief in so many people right now. Praying for refreshment for your spirit my friend. Thank you for being steadfast, wonderful you.

Thank you Joni! I'll settle for a brisk breeze from the tundra and several inches of snow. :-)

Sorry you're hurting right now, Michelle. The world does feel extra heavy lately. I hope you feel God's love and get support from him and your family and friends. You'll have more to say when you come out the other side of this hard time. Hugs! ~Robyn
