Inspiration Gal: How Long Have You Gone Without Seeing The Sun?

Inspiration Gal is Back! Get inspired this week…

It was gray, cloudy, rainy and overcast for five straight days this past week. Each night I would check the weather report and was promised a beautiful sunny day, but that’s not what I got. Every morning, I would awake to an overcast and cloudy sky that would last all day and end with a few inches of rain pouring down. When would the darkness and rain end? Was I ever going to see the sun again? When the weather is miserable, it is hard for me to feel inspired. I just kept yearning for the sun and wondering if I would ever see it again.

As I was driving home on Tuesday evening, I thought about the last time I had seen a glorious sunny day. It was Saturday, just three short days before, not so long ago. Then I thought to myself, I was going to see the sun again. Maybe not that evening or the next day, but the sun was going to come back out. After all, I have never gone more than two weeks without seeing a sunny day. If you have lived in the continental United States most of your life, you probably have not gone more than two weeks without seeing the sun either.

At that point, I realized weather is just like life. Some days are rainy, some are very hot and some days your life feels likes a tsunami or tornado. No matter how long the storm of your life may last, you must remember that this too shall past and there will be a sunny day in your future.

For the record, the sun came out on Friday!
