Just Believe

        Sometimes you feel like you're on top of the world. And sometimes you feel like the world is on top of you.

        Sometimes all your battles have been won and you are reflecting on your glory. And sometimes it feels like you won't survive one more skirmish, altercation or challenge.

        Sometimes you wonder if having dreams is worth it when all your dreams seem to have vanished or been destroyed or delayed beyond what you could have imagined.

        At those times - when times are at their darkest - you simply must believe.

        Don't try to move forward. Don't try to push yourself to achieve more. Don't try, in fact, to do anything.

        Gather your strength. Rest your spirit. Know that you will need those things in days to come.

        Just believe.

        And rest in the strength that comes from knowing that your path is the right one. No matter what you see. No matter how poorly things are going.

        If you've honestly evaluated every option available to you. If you've worked hard and all signs point to the path that you're on, then stay on it.

        And just believe.

        Because sometimes you won't have the strength to overcome. Or be brave. Or to take a stand.

        But you can stand very still and very quiet and just believe better days will come.

        So today - just take a deep breath, remain where you are and just believe.

        And I promise you - a better day is coming!

G-d Bless:

My husband and I have a beautiful life of happiness. I thank G-d everyday. For the past 5 years he has been stricken with 2 blood disorders. He has been going through many blood tests (on a contnuing daily basis). They are very painful. The recovery period is worse than the blood disease itself. He has to be in the hospital for 30 days.. The inhome care is a very fragile, sensitive scary outcome. The Dr. ,said he need a bone marrow transplant. He also has other medical issues that cannot be performed because of this blood illness.

Last year his brother was diagnosed with bone cancer, and he lost his dearly beloved wife to colon cancer. The second wife to cancer. I am bi-polar and on medications. My husband is a dear man with a beautiful, caring, patient heart that has a mellow personality. He never gets angry. I am so afraid of losing him....Thank you for your 'Just Believe'. I keep reading it....I want so much to be strong and unafraid. We do have friends in farawy places, and at times, feel alone....We have no support system. Appreciate your self-help, caring words. It will help get me in a positive way throughout the days, weeks, and months. I pray so hard.......There is a book published and written by a rabbi called, 'When bad things happen to good people.
