This is a late post, but I started writing it to post for March 5 and just was overcome with emotions as that is the week we also buried Christopher last year and were in the midst of celebrating Dr Seuss at the daycare, so my emotions were a little wild that week.....but here is March 5 blog post, I pray u can take just one quote or verse and apply it to your life this week......
This past week we celebrated Theodore Seuss Geisel AKA Dr. Seuss with a different book theme each day, to celebrate his birthday week!!!The Zaney word play was always encouraging and uplifting and In researching I found that his first wife Helen, also a great writer, committed suicide after struggling for more than a decade with partial paralysis from Guillain-Barré syndrome. Depressed by her worsening symptoms and a rumored affair of her husband she took her own life at age 68.
Seuss was famous for positive uplifting words….words that will make you stop and really think about life……I paralleled them with verses from the Bible, which are also words to live by…
Enjoy, always think positive thoughts and remember you are loved, you are valuable to this world and GOD has a purpose for your life……you only have to STAY!!!
