In the morning all the signs of last night’s\u00a0gale were there.\u00a0 The power of the wind unquestionable\u00a0in the devastation and debris it had left behind.\u00a0 But that\u00a0same wind had failed to remove the humid, damp and\u00a0depressive\u00a0stillness that stubbornly clung on longer than it\u00a0should, successfully crowding out any brightness.<\/p>\n

A metaphor, perhaps.<\/p>\n

The lady with the silver hair grabbed a rainjacket as she left home just in case there’s another downpour!<\/em>\u00a0It wasn’t\u00a0her usual Golly Gosh day but today wasn’t the usual kind of a day. \u00a0Certainly it was grey and dark enough and she wondered if the heaviness of the air would ever clear.\u00a0 The gloom\u00a0was trying its hardest to\u00a0claim\u00a0her hopefulness and fortitude\u00a0but she laughed in its face; formidable and strong.\u00a0 Not today.\u00a0 Especially not today.\u00a0 Why did it still persist after all these years?<\/p>\n

She arrived at Golly Gosh in time\u00a0to meet\u00a0her oldest friend in the world.<\/p>\n

Big deep breath.\u00a0 God’s\u00a0presence.<\/p>\n

Looking up\u00a0she spotted some blue sky.\u00a0 She needed it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
