“Daddy, is it true that every cloud has a silver lining?” the BabyGirl asked, looking up at the white puffs in the sky.
“So they say,” her daddy replied, looking up to the clouds as well. “But I bet no one has ever really checked. They may have gold linings.”
“I wish I could check for you,” she responded.
“You wanna try?” he asked.
“How?” she asked. “I’d have to be running really fast to even jump to touch them.”
“I think you can reach them, BabyGirl,” her daddy said. “Just focus in on the journey of your heart. Race up that hill and remember that each chapter has a needed end.”
“I don’t get it,” she replied, perplexed. “How does that help me reach the clouds?”
“You simply remember the momentum you gain along the way,” he answered. “Remember how wonderful it felt to give someone everything you had. Then remember how humbling it felt to know that ‘everything you had’ still wasn’t enough to meet the needs of those in your past. And finally, remember how reassuring it felt to know that you would love that deeply again. Take all these thoughts and put them together. And you’ll find your own way to hit the clouds running.”
