It has been said, “𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘤𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘴 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘦𝘦 𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘴; 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘴, 𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘭𝘴, & 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘥𝘨𝘦”.

Just a Thought ~ A lot of time, we discover how to approach day-to-day life with a relentless pursuit to explore all angles (𝙚𝙙𝙜𝙚𝙨) to every coin (every unique facet that makes us up). 

I am reminded of a parable about a woman who turns on the light (𝘮𝘢𝘺𝘣𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵) to look diligently for a precious coin until she finds it. Why? She knew that she had it.

Sometimes, life’s routines cause us to sleepwalk through the days, & if we are not mindful, we tend to forget or neglect matters of the heart & ultimately get lost.

Thankfully, desire has a God-given way of reminding us again of all the various core values we hold dear.

There is a depth of gratitude with this kind of heart attitude that reveals grit in moments or seasons. We need a wholesome yet evolving balance of peace, doing life with others, with simplicity, & making our today matter.

I think we could all agree there’s something special too, “𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘦.”

I’m constantly learning in deeper depths that hidden capacity, especially within diverse dialogue, can reveal ongoing possibilities, at times effortlessly or suddenly, by acknowledging & applying 𝙩͟𝙝͟𝙚͟ ͟𝙚͟𝙙͟𝙜͟𝙚͟ 𝙤𝙛 𝙬𝙞𝙨𝙙𝙤𝙢.

In moments of transparency, isn’t it an inner intentional endeavor that can bring about needed change to find again whatever we know we have yet do not see clearly or understand? 

Like the woman in the parable, turn the light on, flip the switch & in seeing clearly from the inside out, we see it is there all along. 

One of my favorite sayings in the Amplified Translation: “𝘼𝙨 𝙞𝙧𝙤𝙣 𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙨 𝙞𝙧𝙤𝙣 𝙎𝙤 𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙣 𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙨 [𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙞𝙣𝙛𝙡𝙪𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚𝙨] 𝙖𝙣𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 [𝙩𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝙙𝙞𝙨𝙘𝙪𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣].”

Moments with others matter in our growth journey in all areas of walking life, personally and together. Maybe these moments can be defined as God-Winks!
