I Wish You Enough!

[Dia Minha]

This was shared in my WW meeting tonight. I thought it was so fitting to what I was feeling. I thought you all would enjoy it. So here is to wishing all of you enough.

I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright.
I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more.
I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive.
I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger.
I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.
I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.
I wish you enough “Hello’s” to get you through the final “Good-bye.”

This was just perfect. Long enough to pull at my heart strings but not long enough to draw a tear. Thanks, Dia!

"I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger."

Last night my family and I were driving home from an extended family barbeque. We were coming down 1000 North which slopes down off the mountain a bit. There is a clear view of the sun setting over the mountains and across the Great Salt Lake. It is basically the same view we have from our front porch.

Last night's sunset was amazing. There was not much color, no pinks, or purples, or orange, just the blue sky and the white clouds and the most magnificent silver, that made the bottom of the clouds look like glass. I have begun to call these, angel sunsets.

Anyway, coming home last night and admiring the beauty, I asked Fubeca if the sunsets were always this beautiful. It just seems like since loosing Levi, every sunset is prettier than the one before. It doesn't matter if it is spouting brilliant rainbow colors or simply reflecting clear, off the drops of water, within a cloud formation. Each one causes me to pause, if even for just a moment, to enjoy the beauty it has to offer.

It's not like, if I had been given a choice, between keeping Levi and having a beautiful sunset every night for the rest of my life, I would have chosen the sunsets. It is just amazing to me how true the above poem is. Loosing him has made even the tinest treasures so much more enjoyable.

I feel like I'm stepping on sacred ground here by commenting on your post but I just wanted you to know I really appreciated what you said, Dia. Thanks for sharing that beautiful insight.

Diva, I was thinking it would be a better blog than post.

Thanks for commenting. There are so many times I do something with the purpose to share with or help someone else and never get the opportunity to know for sure if it did. It is always nice to know when it does.
