Searching for a way out
But I lost the layout of my path.
It's hard to navigate
when you're in restraints and cannot move
It's like walking through concrete
I try to move my feet
but with each step it hardens.

We All Have A Story
People endure such hardships, some too horrific to ever speak about. Regardless of what they've faced, they awake each day and put one foot in front of the other to attempt to do their best to find their way back to the path of joy; fighting through the darkness, which is admirable. We should always keep this in mind with each person we encounter, when choosing our words, be wise and above all kind. Proceed with compassion. Spread Love. Try to come from a standpoint of understanding always. God bless ya'll.

Family Quotes
"Is Trump causing division, OR are we using him as an excuse to divide ourselves?" - Anthony Carey ©
My brother asked this profound question the other day. It of course sparked controversy but if you really take into consideration what society has been doing since Trump first announced he'd run for Presidency, up until right now, the answer to this question is clear. It's the latter.
Each of us has a choice when we awake each day of who we are going to be and the impact we desire to have on the world. Our destination is written but not our journey, God leaves that part to us. Will we be positive and have a good influence wherever we go? Or will we be negative and have a bad influence on the world? I've said before that no good change in the state of the world has ever stemmed from anger. Anger only breeds more anger which leads to a state of hatred. What happened to a time when people could agree to disagree, where we may not have the same view and that was okay and we respected each other enough to say hey, you're on a different part of your journey than I am, and that's alright, I can still be a friend to you, I can still love you with the Love of Christ and we CAN get along. Because despite our differences, you're still my brother, you're still my sister.
If we could all live that way, and see each other in that manner, despite the difference in views, the world would be a much better place.
My dad instilled in me a quote that I carry through my life at all times:
"Look for the good. Hope for the best. Do your part. And let God take care of the rest." - Donald E. Carey ©
If you're always looking for the good in everything and in everyone, it leaves little room to judge, it leaves even less room to search for the bad in them. If you're always hoping for the best, it leaves little room for doubt or fear, and since hope is an inherently positive trait, it breeds optimism. If you're doing your part, and that means doing the best that you can to be a good human being, if the majority of the time you're doing the right things and taking steps towards making the world better including yourself, then there's very little room for negativity or pessimism because you're too focused on doing your part to improve. Then lastly you let God take care of the rest, the unknown, the future, the uncertainty of tomorrow. All of that belongs to Him. You entrust it to Him. He has it in His fully capable hands. So don't worry, don't be anxious and definitely don't be angry. Read Matthew 6:19-34 in the Message version. I'll also post it shortly thereafter this one just in case you don't have access currently to a bible. God bless you and thank you for reading. Take courage and be the best that YOU can be for God. Sending love and light! - Brianna Carey ©
