The Conversation goes like this......... 
Myself "Oh Blessed Goddess Please open the traffic in a timely manner so we can safely cross the road"  (as we are entering an intersection)
My granddaughter Eva "Bah Bah who is the Goddess?"  
Myself "She lives in the Moon"   
Eva "Oh I know her!"  
She then asks me, "Who put her there?"  
I am befuddled and answer "I guess Mother Earth"... 
Her  answer to that is "Oh Bah Bah, you are so Silly!"  
she shakes her head and says "Mother Earth... Mother Earth?"
" Yes I tell her the Earth is our Mother and we are her Children."
 I proceed to sing the words.  Again she tells me I am silly.  I guess that's a good thing coming from a four year old.
Blessed Be and Thank you Goddess for All that you Do for Me!

We do not succeed in changing things according to our desire,
but gradually our desire changes.  The situation that we hoped
to change because it was intolerable becomes unimportant.
We have not managed to surmount the obstacle, as we were
absolutely determined to do, but life has taken us around it, led
us past it, and then if we turn around to gaze at the remote past,
we can barely catch sight of it, so imperceptible has it become.

Today's Quote
“You can't stop the future
You can't rewind the past
The only way to learn the secret
...is to press play.”
Jay Asher, Thirteen Reasons Why
 
There are very few constants in life
Be ready for change
You know it's coming
and when it does
Be Open
Accept the Challenge
and 
Allow the change to Wash over You!
Okay.. I'm Ready
