“O” is for…

I try to live life openly. Open-minded.

To new ideas.

To those whose opinions are on the opposite end of the spectrum than mine.

To an alternate, unfamiliar way to reach an end to something.

Open to new experiences, and revisiting old.

Open to change.

Open to accepting the unacceptable, loving the unlovable.

I try to be open to receive that which others have to offer, no matter how insignificant it may seem.

Open to creating from my heart, writing words from my soul, and drawing strength from life.

Open to living freely and completely.

I try to be open to embracing difficulties and heartache, practicing dependence on God.

Open to whatever the day ahead brings rather than the way I would have it unfold.

I try to be open to the unfamiliar after the door to what is familiar slams shut.

I never said I was successful, simply that I try.  And when I try I sometimes get it right. 🙂

“When God closes a door, he opens a window, but it’s up to you to find it.”
― Jeannette Walls
