bitter. Nothing is more cancerous to the soul than fellowshipping with the "Bitter Betty's" of this world. I know our world is a crappy place, and people suck, and everyone's in it for the money, and no one cares, and blah, blah, blah...I mean seriously do we not have anything else in this life to rant and rave about, except what pisses us off, or who is annoying us, or whatever. Okay maybe I am sounding a bit bitter now. I resolve to never become a "Bitter Betty!" Yes, things surely suck from time to time, but can't we see any goodness in life anymore? i know it's there. Maybe the eyes of our heart are too blinded by bitterness to recognize it anymore. I know its hard to find, but if we seek it out, if we soften our hearts, we just might catch that rare glimpse. and who knows that mere glimpse can turn into an amazing experience to be had. Share a kind word, a smile, a sunset, a good song, an inspirational verse or poem. It is possible to see the world without bitterness. Look hard enough and you'll find it. Stop complaining and you'll hear it. May our souls never be soured by bitterness.
and she took a bite of the fruit and it was...
sweet!
