Like everyone I love the movie, It's A Wonderful Life. Jimmy Stewart's character feels trapped in other peoples life and dreams and becomes disillusioned when he realizes all that he has fought and sacrificed for may be lost.
We all feel that way sometimes. We feel taken for granted, unappreciated or caught in a web, not of our making. Well, I have learned to channel my inner Clarence, the angel in the movie, and imagine what life would be like had I never been born.
I challenge you to be bold enough to ask yourself this question. There is someone in your life who wants only your answers to their questions; the way you live, love and share would not have been a wish to someone in need. You've changed the world more than you know, accept it, appreciate it and embrace it.
Your heart may be heavy today, but what a widow knows is that today may look bleak, but tomorrow is a new day with promises, praise and another chance to succeed or fail.
Keep your head up in public, sob uncontrollably in private, thank God and ask for his will to be done all day and everyday. And then when it gets too big you can shake it off, wash your face and suck it up, 'cause rain or sun, it's all God and A Wonderful Life.
Now, Pass It On
