Without Having It Figured Out

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Faith isn't about having
everything figured out
ahead of time.
Faith is about following
the quiet voice of God
without having everything
figured out ahead of time.
 Rachel Held Evans




Practice kindness all day
to everybody and you will realize
you're already in heaven now.
   Jack Kerouac



Sometimes, you have to
look back in order to understand
the things that lie ahead.
  Yvonne Woon




Remember, if people talk
about you behind your back,
it only means you are
two steps ahead of them.
  Fannie Flagg




ᭋᭋᭋᭋᭋᭋᭋᭋ
Love You,
Cloudia & Pixie

Great quotes today, Cloudia. Your quote above kindness is above a picture of the Honolulu office of the Buddhist NGO that I studied for my dissertation. Their mission in life is to practically reduce suffering by performing acts of compassion. The lion dancer is cool, too, as is our resident lioness, Pixie!

We certainly don't have to see the whole picture when we walk by faith. Blessings!

It's okay to look back at the past, but it's best done briefly before moving on.
