Is Sweetness Passing you By?

One of the most amazing things I've ever heard my mother say is, "Sweetness passed me by before I knew it was sweet."  Believe it or not, she was referring to her time in a refugee camp, because she was remembering the wonderful friends, really family, that made that otherwise unbearable and terrifying time sweet.

Is sweetness passing you by today, without you realizing it? Are there people in your life who bring so much sweetness to you, yet you don't know it because you're just trying to get through each day, fighting past the unavoidable details, routines, and necessary minutia of life, and in some cases, trying to endure overwhelming challenges?

Regardless of where you are, take a moment and ask yourself: What's sweet in my life? Am I letting it pass by?
