Randy's Aunt Lisa has this quote in her email signature and I love it!
"Life is too short for negative drama & petty things. So laugh insanely, love truly and forgive quickly! From one unstable person to another... I hope everyone is happy in your head - we're all doing pretty good in mine!"
Sometimes I find myself being too judgemental or offended by another person, but when I take the time to get to know someone, I find out that we all have our stuff we have to deal with in this life. Most of us grew up with some sort of dysfunction in our family, and most of us have scars from past heartache. All of us have trials and insecurities.

I was talking to a good friend today about my own personal heartache over one of my family members. She said to accept love wherever you can receive it, and you will find that the Lord will always overcompensate. How true is that! I have been so blessed. I married a good man that loves me and puts up with me. His parents treat me like I'm one of their own, although I'm sure they've wondered a time or two why the heck Randy married me in the first place. I have friends that I am bonded to for life. I have children that are so dang cute and love their mama. And my family loves me.

Loved your post.
Love that quote, Nancy. And I like your thoughts on it. Reminds me of the song "The Story" by Brandi Carlile.
