The Sun Will Come Up

Yes, it sets each day, but it also rises.

It’s like all of our lives.

We continually experience ups and downs.

It is the cadence of our lives that leaps from sadness to joy and back again.

For some of us, sadness seems to linger longer.

This is understandable when the sadness is caused by a major disappointment.

Yet, like the sun, those of us in a protracted sadness, must also rise.

I say this because I’ve learned that our allotted time is short and goes by in the blink of an eye.

And joy doesn’t last a lifetime.

There are interruptions to our joy when life deals us another blow.

So, each day we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off and start all over again.

That’s life!

If not today, when?
