Sometimes...

Sometime I wish life wasn't so hectic....and then I recall the times I've had nothing to do and have been bored to death.

Sometimes I wish I had a quiet little study to do my writing in...And then I remember that all these little people running around are what make my characters so alive.

Sometimes I wish there weren't quite so many dishes to wash...And then I recall who I was feeding and how much I love them.

Sometimes I wish I didn't have a cat that knocked things over out of sheer peversity...but then I think of how soft and cuddly she is when she wants to be.

Sometimes I wish I lived in Scotland...but then I think of how dearly I love Virginia and my USA.

Sometimes I wish I was a published author...but then I think of the delights of anticipation.

Sometimes I wish my circumstances were different...but then I think of how much God is teaching me through them.

Sometimes I wish I was filthy-rich...but then I realize how precious frugality will be to me one day.

Sometimes I wish I was prettier...but then I am thankful my inward beauty can shine through all the better because there is not so much to distract people.

Sometimes I wish there wasn't such a thing in the world as sickness...but then we'd never be so grateful for health. :)

Sometimes I wish things moved faster...and then they do and I'm all agog. :D

It's a wonderful life!
