Everyone has an opinion
I’d like you to know that
I do as well.
The world isn’t falling apart,
though ideas do have a way of
collapsing beneath
false prophets.
Headlines scream
what we already know
Fear is easy.
But my ears only hear
two children
pleading
for peace.

I know… last night I stopped following some friends on Facebook and will read news less often. I’m getting so anxious with it all so I realized I should pay more attention to my children. I still want to be involved and active but there is just so much one can handle… specially while raising little ones.

I totally agree! There are limits to what the heart (and our sanity) can handle. At this point, I think it’s figuring out a balance of being in the know while still moving forward with love. Kids are pretty good reminders that hope abounds, even if only in our homes sometimes 🙂
