Water the Seeds and not the Weeds

As I sit back and have time to reflect over past obstactles I've overcome, and how, and why they even happen, I'm confinced that 90% of how we react to the action, is vitale to the outcome, we will endure either immediatly or over a period time. Ever hear the saying, ' When it rains it pours'? Well that is true, but sometimes we wonder when the rain will stop. Or should it stop? I myself like sunnier days then rainy days. But does that always make us grow, develope our character, and who we really are, or made to be, for that fact. So as I reflect back on times that were so tough, when you think you can't take another breath or step, and pain, tears, sorrow, seem to creap in and consume your life, and if your like me, sometimes we mull it over and over in our minds, only creating more distress, more discouragement, and setup to possible failure. On these rainy days, I've learned, and am still learning, that the sunshine is brighter than we give credit. It's warmer than we think, if we only learn how to embrace the rain, and not run, from the storms we come face to face with. How much would and could we grow to help others. Not to mention ourselves with growth.
