365 Creativity Project-Day 344

Journal entry:

Falling Short

Sometimes it is hard
To make others happy as
You would really like
Because they have different
Measures of satisfaction.

You attempt to make
The best of situations,
But you only cause
Misunderstanding, trouble,
Not at all what you desire.

You cannot give up,
You cannot stop trying to
Bring some happiness
To those for whom you care so
Very much, loving them more.

Photographs:

I am grateful:

1.   Alex came to visit a while today.
2.   I was able to shoot with the pistol and rifle some.
3.   I did not run out of hot water in the shower.
4.   Hope settled down after we finished shooting.
5.   Alex and Laura are going to be with us for Christmas dinner.

I enjoyed my Tuesday a great deal. I hope you had a good day as well. I urge you to use your creativity and make something wonderful to share with the world. I know you have the ability, because I believe you are at least as talented as I am.
