William Congreve

"Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned / Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned." ~William Congreve

So I've been thinking about this quote for a little while and oh it's so true. However, I've been doing a lot better with the whole anger issue until...this morning...on a whim...I decided to....

do a people search and whaddya know...2 contacts showed up, one in NY and the other in GA...so now here's my dilemna, do I try to contact them? I don't want to be the one to call cuz I don't want to talk to him, in case it is him. I doubt that it is him because the name is pretty common and the locations are pretty full of Senegalese Wolof peoples.

Anyway, I am no longer full of rage nor am I furious with him. What he's done is done and it is what it is. I know ultimately what I am going to do and have prayed about it and have peace about it too. I am no longer going to live my life in fear and worry about all the 'what ifs'.

So, I was reminded of this quote because I'm such a girl...obviously but, I mean it in another sense too. I am so curious and want answers and do so many things to get answers. Sometimes I need to just leave well enough alone.

Once again my prayer for today is that I would leave things in the Lord's hands and let Him do what needs to be done and lead me in His footsteps...and that I would follow instead of trying to see what's out there on those other pathways...a.k.a. my imagination etc.

That's all folks!

Hey,

I just checked out your blog for the first time, how fun! I'm so glad that you're doing well, and the pic of Haddie was adorable.
