Happy Easter!
I've always had a soft spot in my heart for Humpty Dumpty. I pretend that the kings horses and kings men really can put Humpty back together again. I am totally unwilling to accept that Humpty's existence ends after he falls off of that darn wall.
Sometimes life feels like that though. We take a great fall and sink so low that we think we will never shift back into joy.
One of my dad's favorite sayings was, "this will pass" and he often said it to me when I felt that my life had hit bottom permanently. He was right. My woes and troubled times have always passed.
Just as there are seasons in the year, there are seasons in all aspects of our lives. If you are in a tough spot, remember that the darkness will pass and you will see the sun again.
Happy Easter and blessings to you,
Beverly
PS: here is the cartoon that Storyteller mentioned in her comment. I posted it, removed it and now am reposting it. Thanks Storyteller, this made me laugh too when I first saw it!
I do miss having little kids around at Easter ... so I appreciate your photo here, but I'm wondering what happened to the Easter Cartoon I just saw in Google Reader with the caption, "This isn't exactly what I had in mind when I asked you to paint the wall eggshell" because it made me laugh aloud!
I've got Easter 'phun stuph' at Small Reflections and more 'thoughtful' ideas at Sacred Ruminations. Happy Easter to you and yours!
Hugs and blessings,
