But regardless, life can be very fulfilling if you just grasp and take hold of it with courage. It's not where you've been that matters but where you are going in life. No one can say they have had a perfect life so far ..life just happens. My wish for you is to taste the journey through life, for we are just passing through. We become much richer, more wise when we use all our senses through that journey and we realize that what we have learned can be used to tell a better story of the world. Living Faith "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Hebrews 11:1 Living Love "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is s not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 ABOUT THE AUTHOR Elvia Morales works as a nurse but she'd rather be writing poetry books for children and adults.
