Someone Else Said it Best….

Just after I posted my last entry I was looking at my Facebook page. A special friend from Maryland posted the following quote:

"Sorrow prepares you for joy. It violently sweeps everything out of your house, so that new joy can find space to enter. It shakes the yellow leaves from the bough of your heart, so that fresh, green leaves can grow in their place. It pulls up the rotten roots, so that new roots hidden beneath have room to grow. Whatever sorrow shakes from your heart, far better things will take their place."  -  Rumi

It was the timing of her post that sort of caught me by surprise….and reading it helped. Memories heal - thank you dear friend.
