“Why do we need compassion?
Experience tells us that it brings inner strength.
It also benefits others
and we face many unnecessary problems
when we lack it.
To understand this
we must develop a holistic way
of seeing the bigger picture,
which means we must use our intelligence.”
Inner Strength brings peace
When we use it to create
Inner compassion
Then compassion brings
Inner strength when we use it
To show outer peace
Peace be with you, my friends.
Tomorrow we’ll be on our way to Oregon
to be with my sister-in-law
as we celebrate the life and memory
of her husband of 60+ years.
May your soul
Rest in peace, Stanley P Hunt.
And my dear WordPress Friends,
May your day be filled with peace and blessings,
compassion and inner strength.
God bless you!
Hugs,
JanBeek
P.S. May you find sweet peace that passes understanding.

Thank you, Fran. It will seem strange not being in church, but our flight leaves at 8:55 tomorrow morning, so I will have to create our own worship service with the devotionals I will take as my carry-ons. Happy weekend to you. Thanks for your visit to JanBeek and taking time to leave a sweet comment. Love ya, {{{Fran}}}. ❤

You would think peace would create a much better world, but greed and lust for power seem to be overpowering instincts that keep us down. Love your post and the sentiments it expresses Jan. Have a safe Journey. Go on to the coast while you are there and find natures peace in the awesome beauty!

Thank you so much, Susan ❤ We spent a lovely afternoon and evening with Bob's sister, her son and his family. Tomorrow is the funeral. We're glad we made the effort and came to support the family during this trying time.
