I was thinking the other day ... a lot of people place a lot of hope in winning the lottery.
I don't think there is really anything such as coincidence. I think that there is a whole lot more going on than that. Somebody up there clever is still in charge :-)
Anyway - while I was thinking myself admittedly - about all the things I could do if I won the lottery - I got to thinking ... more truly ... the thought popped in my head that if I did win the lottery, I would have nothing left to look forward to.
That is the same about knowing the future.
I don't want to know the future. Don't want to know horror-scopes filled with doom and gloom that are mostly computer generated (had a science teacher tell me that).
I am looking forward to it though. I believe it is going to be good.
But there is a joy in not knowing what it is going to contain.
A long time ago, I felt pretty hopeless. I have my hope renewed though. That is pretty special. For the first time today, I put my youngest child on one of those $2 rides at the shopping centre. I used to be such a tightwad that I had refused to do things like that with my other two children. What a shame.
It isn't the $27.8 million dollars that makes you truly rich - it is those $2 moments with your children, surrounded by your family and loved ones that make you realise that you are richly blessed. Family and true friends are priceless.
