Look Up

God puts rainbows in the clouds so that each of us — in the dreariest and most dreaded moments — can see a possibility of hope. 

~Maya Angelou

Look Up
Life can get overwhelming. Sometimes there is too much that happens all at once that makes us feel like we will burst open from worry, stress and sadness. And in those moments it's so hard to be grateful. It's so hard to see the positive when our hearts are aching and our minds are racing. But it's in those moments that we need to look up, literally, for there are signs all around us letting us know that we will be ok. It's so easy to miss these signs if we only look down, if we decide not to pay attention to those around us and if we shut ourselves off from the world. Life can be hard but it's also balancing. It will give us just enough to keep pushing ahead until the storm settles, until the clouds start to disappear, until the lightening and thunder are in the distance and all that is left is a beautiful rainbow ushering in a new beginning.
