Ok, it can't be a secret that Outspoken_Diva is a Christian. It shouldn’t be. If you know me (birth name) on Facebook you know I end most times I speak on there with a “nice” quote. It’s my way of saying goodbye for the time being. And sometimes events in my life give a message to tell. Well, Monday gave me a nice one to share.
After dinner we locked up the house for the evening and some how a small rock hit our screen door. This has been our screen door almost 45 years. All my life I heard "Don't slam that door, the glass will break" or "Watch how you handle that door". Then someone would check the door for warps or a slight crack in the or around the glass. On Easter I even told my cousin's friend the latter statement. All these years of slams and a rock shatters the top glass. Crazy part is the glass didn't fall out until we went to tap the opening latch before we took our brooms to push the glass out onto the porch.
Ironic that is how we live life. We are slammed by life tribulations day by day. Then something that seems so minute finally hurt our hearts, feeling, and souls. And finally someone slightly touches us trying to help, we just fall apart. Like we sometime didn't listen to the warning about bang our screen door, the miseries of life can hit us with some heavy blows. We have to sometime get some maintenance on our emotions to make sure we are not too warped not to be able to withstand small pebbles throw at us also.
Who would have thought screen doors could help us out with life? Well, we're getting a new door by the week's end. And we will be careful with that one also. Another door to usher in new messages into our lives. Can't wait to see what it teaches us.
