Thankful Thursday - Story





“Every human being has a fascinating existence, with a big cast of good and evil characters in each. And almost always, somewhere along the way, magic.”  Lucinda Riley. 

I love hearing people's life stories...where they've been, what they've done....things they hoped for, things they've lost, what they've overcome, the tough times and the scary. 

But the best is hearing about the amazing, the magical...long held dreams finally fulfilled, second chances given when everything seemed hopeless, new discoveries that infused them with purpose and passion.

Listening to others tell what life has been to them, is a huge reminder to me that all of us have a story make up of bits of darkness, and bits of glorious. Another reason to live kind.

Happy Thursday, Guys.

It is so true that everyone has a story including troubles and bad times as well as good. I agree this is a perfect reason why kindness should always be a priority. Happy Thursday, Nikki!

I love hearing stories too, Nikki, and I've heard a lot of them over the years. Everyone has a story and some are sadder than others. I especially love to hear about how God has done something BIG in someone's life. There is always HOPE and always a new beginning with Him. Great post! Have a fabulous weekend.

Hugs,
Sandi

We are the essence of our stories. I'm always inspired by people who aren't afraid to tell theirs.

A time to tell and a time to listen ...
Talking and sharing the good and the bad can help us and others to a better place ...
