The Big Picture


Sometimes, you just have to look at the BIG PICTURE when something like this happens before you do or say anything. There are sacrifices to be made in every decision we make in order to experience the joy that can come from them. So it is with these little critters . . . when I found that Doc had been outside chewing on the grass and then come in and deposited it on my couch I wasn't too happy about it, but then I thought, it was the perfect "Big Picture". If he didn't bring so much joy and love into the house otherwise this kind of thing would be much harder to put up with. I'm sure the same type of sacrifices are being made every day by parents with their children when they do something they shouldn't. But they are accepted and loved anyway, and we learn to go on and deal with bad when it comes and rejoice in the good, and so it is with just about everything in life.
