Tam’s Trench Truth



Hello friends and welcome to Tam’s Trench Truth this warm Thursday!

I was thinking about the troublesome side of life last night and thought I'd share some thoughts... Do we have a humble soul?

Being humble is such a great and incredibly loving way to live one's life. At least I believe it to be. One thing that keeps me humble is simply talking with others. I have come to learn that the times I am most happy is when I have someone to talk and laugh with. I am no better or more important than anyone else. We all have something we want to talk about, to share, to get off our chest. I am happy even when talking to a perfect stranger. I do prefer a best friend in conversation for sure, but there is something special in crossing paths with others, isn't there? I find it such an honor when someone opens up to me and tells me what's going on in their life, for someone to trust me enough to do that. That in itself is such a huge gift. 

Many times in life we might wake to find those we love have left. It can become quite lonely, but even in this we can find balance. I surely hope so for most of my life I have been banking on God's wealth of love and His ear. I admit that I am not always the best Christian, I have doubted God, but I still arise at the point in which I can just feel this living force of love within me. It's that force that keeps me going, the force that opens the part of me that I can feel passion in a single song that fuels me for a month all to itself. 

I find love from God in most all things... maybe not at first, but in the end I surely do. Lord only knows how I struggle to. In the painful endings, we can find new births of appreciation, spirit and peaceful understanding. Every ending has another beginning on the other side. May God inspire the strength to remain humble, remain grateful, and never take a single breath for granted as we continue in our journey Every breath is as important as the one before and the one after...  the longevity to support the duration of spiritual life.

Much love everyone.
