Life means well.

Life has our best interests at heart, although we are sometimes tempted to think otherwise. Life means well when we are struggling with an illness or pain, when we feel shut off, absent or stressed, when we lose someone we love, or when we lose contact with those who are closest, or with ourselves. Life means well.

Tomorrow is a cornucopia of time with no history. New approaches await. Life provides us with opportunities to start over, make new choices, and reestablish contact with the aspects of ourselves that are able to find light in the darkness. To every thing there is a season, and the present has constant confidence in life meaning well. 

Remind me today never to give up, no matter how deep the darkness inside or around me. Help me to keep up hope for myself and for others. Remind me to accept the help I need. Let me trust that life will see to my happiness.
