Survive or Thrive


Good Day, Compassionary Blog Readers. It feels like a long time since I have written. Just when I think "what in the world will I blog about" - Shazam! The universe provides an opportunity! 

Well, today a new family member (I have been married almost 2 years) was not so nice to me. You would of thought my skin was going to fall off! I cried, and ranted, and yes raved a bit. So, I got on my bike, I usually have to do something physical to try and make the crazy~brain go somewhere else ! I rode and rode. 

When I stopped, God said to my Heart, "You survive when its easy to be compassionate to folks that are agreeable. But - to thrive, try being compassionate to the folks who are NOT so nice. Love them. 

A sweet sense of peace washed over me. Thanks God. When I can be quiet and listen, I move a little closer to getting it! 

On another note, If I may brag, my awesome little sister did a TEDx Talk. If you have never been in Ted-Talk-Land, you are in for a real treat!  I am honored to introduce you to a sweet part of my Heart: Lil Sis, Kelly Callahan. I know you will love her! Peace. ~Colleen
