“When you can soak in the good and the bad and know that it’s all good.”-SG
The full context of that quote can be found where I am asking her how you know when you’ve completed this goal. It can be found here
And so I’m responded to that yet again, after thinking it over so more. But I want to focus more on that idea of accepting both the good and the bad.
Now, we all want what’s good. Any sane person does. We all want happiness. But life is not always happiness. Sometimes life is suffering. And yet with any suffering always comes ceasation. All things are eventually ceased. Everything is temporary. All things in time will be resolved, and all things must pass.
So the key is to find contentment. There can be contentment in the happiness. But there can be a sort of contentment from the ceasation of suffering. A contentment from resolution. A contentment from relief. There will always be challenges in life, but there can be contentment in overcoming the challenges. And where the challenges cannot be overcome, there can be a contentment in resolution which is an overcoming of sorts.
I don’t know that this goal can be completed, or finalized, as it’s so ongoing, but I can be content with my understanding.
And God bless SG for her wisdom.

I woke early this morning, and asked God in my heart a question.
Me: God, can I do something for you today that helps you in your goals?
God: Dress up, and go to that concert today.
Me: That’s it?
God: I made you a beautiful woman for my purpose. Your presence will be a tremendous encouragement to the performers.
Me: Ok.

With my excess money, I’ve donated to The Alzheimer’s Assoc., The Red Cross, The Obama Campaign, The Topfree Equal Rights Assoc., The Naturist Action Committee, An animal shelter, and I plan to also donate to a domestic abuse and sexual assault center.
What I receive, I will give and put to good use, until I receive again and give and put to good use, and once again receive, and then give and put to good use. And it will be good to receive and then give and put to good use. And so will it be.
