Murmuring


We were in Chicago and autumn had just started, in this time of year the trees begin to change color, they turn yellow, others orange, and red, one prettier than the other and the view as you can imagine is breath taking.
So one Saturday we decided to go to a park they have there called “Starved Rock”, it is huge and full of trees, with the intention of taking photos of the colorful trees.
We invited a couple of pastors and went with such expectation, after all we love having contact with nature, and we joined business with pleasure and went.

To our surprise, when we arrived at the immense park, it was completely green, the leaves had not changed color, there were a few trees beginning to turn yellow, but in the midst of so much green you couldn’t notice it, it didn’t stand out, jejeje.
Our plans failed, it all went downhill, but what do you think happened?
Did we murmur and complained all day with nature because it delayed?
Could it be that we got into the car and decided to leave because there were going to be no photos of autumn?
Of course not, we enjoyed the fresh air, the company of our friends and went for a walk and took pictures either way, and it was a marvelous day.

What I want to draw your attention to with this story is that things don’t always com out as planned, or as we expected, but that doesn’t mean that we will turn into murmuring people, that only complain and are unpleasing to around and instead of enjoying the moment, we turn it into a heavy environment and the day ends up being upsetting and unpleasing to all.
Scowling, negative words and a aggressive attitude would only get in the way and ruin our day.

So girls, no murmuring, if we are happy everything will be okay, and will take out the good in every situation to smile and enjoy, for ourselves and those that are in our company.

I leave you with some pictures of the green park, very beautiful, and of the few colored leaves in the middle of so much green, at least we found some jejeje.


Kisses to all!

It is true, no matter how much we prepare for a day, nothing quite turns out exactly as we planed and yet life goes on. We need to be prepared to react in a proper way when things do not go according to what we expected. No complains can change the situation but however we can chose to react in a positive way to counter our disappointment.

It's true Mrs. Tania no matter how much we prefer or plans doesn't come out exactly what we want to be. But instead we dis apoint or complain we carry on don't destroy the day. Relax and be happy..

You are right. We can't expect everything will be all right as what we planned. Sometimes we plan it ahead but on that day, it failed. So instead of murmuring, divert our minds in other positive things. In this way, we can experience something that not in our plans. Somehow, it makes us happy too instead of destroying our day.

Very true Mrs Tania, that we cannot expect exactly as we planned. Sometimes, we need to expect the un-expected so that if in case our plan did not go well according to what we expected, we are not dissapointed. And instead of murmuring do something different that makes us happy.

Its good to not complain when things are not going the way it was planned because that will add a stressful day and what was needed to be done will never be done. Instead our mind will be on how we wish we never did this or we wish we never went etc instead of looking at things another way and trying to change it.

Mrs tania I can confess that at times I have been a serial murmur complaining sometimes about things not turning out my way and as you said it I created a heavy environment and no one wanted to be around me. I didn't realise even until now how bad this is but complaining is really ugly, it's like a social repellent. I will definitely be taking this lesson into consideration and pledging to say no to mumurring !

Thanks Danielle

It's true Ms. Tania, we can't expect everything that we plan will exactly the same, most of the time there are changes, insrtead if complaining go ahead don't let your dissapointment destroy your day, grab the opportunity to learn new things.

very true Mrs Tania, it is like the nature of the human that when things do not go according to the way he plans the person will start on complaining and giving negative words so instead of complaining we should turn the water into the wine, find a way out even if it is to be no way.

Nice pictures indeed, Dona! Nature always reflect the glory of God. I agree, Dona. We can turn a bad day into a fun and enjoyable one. It's up to us how we make our day. We can always make the best out of a bad situation. Have great one always, Mrs Tania! :)

This is powerful Mrs Tania, most of the time i murmur when i am panicking and when things do not go my way. I have realized that i do it most of the time without thinking, probably thinking that is gonna change a certain situation or make i better. things don’t always com out as planned, or as we expected, but that doesn’t mean that we will turn into murmuring people, that only complain and are unpleasing to God and instead of enjoying the moment, we turn it into a heavy environment and the day ends up being upsetting and unpleasing to all. I have decided no more murmuring, if i am happy everything will be okay, and will take out the good in every situation to smile and enjoy, for ourselves and those that are in our company.

Unknown said...

Very true Mrs. Tania, we plan something but of course sometimes the things that we planed turn out not to be. But of course it doesn't impede us to make other things and enjoy every moment of it. It's up to us to turn our day into a beautiful one.

That's where faith comes in. In good and bad expectations we still have to keep going. Thank you for sharing Mrs. Rubim.
