Coloring outside the lines...

Today when I did a product demo, it was offering a box of free crayons to anyone that wanted them. I thought it was interesting that adults would come to the table and say they didn't want one because they didn't have children. I mentioned to them that you don't need to be a child to enjoy "coloring outside the lines" with crayons. No one took me up on that offer, because they all walked away thinking they were adults and as adults "we" don't do that.  A gentle reminder ~ to play a little more...

The Heart...

Even though my children are considered by the world "adults" it doesn't mean my heart leaves theirs. When their heart hurts. mine hurts. When their tears run down, my heart aches to ease the pain. In life there are things I can't fix, I can only be there to offer LOVE and a safe and soft place to fall. But the heart is fragile and needs to be handled with care. Tonight I will give those I love a hug, give myself a hug and hope that those that mishandle their children's heart, will find an awakening that will heal their heart that is so wounded.
