Short story: An ordinary life is never really ever an ordinary life

Tweet

Susan Jeffries was just an everyday, ordinary, sort of a person. She was an accountant's receptionist, and she had worked for the old accountant, for thirty years now, in his office, on the front desk. Over the years, she had heard many comments, made from many people, usually made in passing, as a reflection on life, and how it was passing to them. She also had her own thoughts spring up in her mind, from time to time, about life, and what it was really all about too. She noted all of these gems of inspirational words down in her journal, and every so often, she would reread them to get some positive injection of a fresh spirit of energy into her life at that time, usually when it was sorely needed, due to her going through a bad patch, at that time too. Here are just a few entries from her journal, which, upon reading them, might inspire anyone else in their own life too. "Life is not about doing, but about loving; just love, and let the doing, do itself." "Everybody is hurt inside in some areas of themselves, at all times, and nobody can ever totally get away from this hurt, during the whole of their lifetime. They can live from love, as best they can though, and this will provide a salve to the hurt, and it will then not affect, or run their lives, so much for them then either." "Love is not a force in you until you allow it to be from acting truly from the love in your heart." "God (or love, or a higher power) is always there, and available, to us; all that we need do is to acknowledge his presence, and see him there." "Each life lives independently as best they can, as everyone innately knows to strive for bestness in their life. Bestness is achieved by having God in your life." "Randomness never exists to God, nor to love, and all has its purpose in existence for God." "Reaching past the lowness of yourself to live from the highness of God in you requires love, and only love can raise you into this highness." "Love is a part of us, and when we love, we give ourselves to others." "The length of any life is created by the amount of love given out in some ways, but it also depends on the love not given out, which stifles the life, and ends it, prematurely so." We can all bring extraordinariness into our life, and so every ordinary life, is never really so. Being ordinary is never about being ordinary. We are all uniquely fashioned for a purpose by God.
