Yes to love, joy, peace etc
Of course we know that life doesn’t have to be a picnic, and so I could understand adding in loneliness or anxiety. But longsuffering is usually a disaster.
Life is not a bed of roses and longsuffering is a trial that can lead to beautiful things
Oh, what a lovely picture to accompany such precious words. Thank you for the sweet inspiration and encouragement.

Thank you, I am glad you enjoy the picture and accompanying words
What a beautiful sun-loving plant. I looked up “longsuffering” – its meaning isn’t as bad as it sounds!
Longsuffering is a bit like an endurance test which can sometimes yield fruitfulness at the end of the trial.
So, after the above comments, I looked it up: “having or showing patience in spite of troubles, especially those caused by other people.” This is life as we know it, and to be able to BE these qualities is truly what it’s all about. I often think this is what we’re here for!
Certainly life as we know it and I agree with the thought that this is what we are here for.
Like Ginnie I googled the word suffering… hmmmm… I can go along with everything it is often that our action is a reaction on actions from others…. and we are no saints…. Great picture with it. What is it with sunflowers, they are so happy
I totally I agree with you
What a beautiful photo. That sunflower will stay in my mind all morning.
I am glad the photo has inspired you so much
