Extraordinary


What does extraordinary really mean? Extra ordinary...

Extraordinary things can happen to ordinary people and when they do~ do THEY become extraordinary?

Who decides what makes a person extraordinary?

Do extraordinary people know they're extraordinary?

Can extraordinary persons become ordinary?

Sometimes I imagine a kind of extraordinary life for myself. A life where my kids have room to be who they are. Run free and play, imagine and create.

A life where I create an extraordinary place for my dear one to come to for peace, quiet and calm. A place to refresh, to laugh and to love. A place where our children will be loved, feel safe and happy.

Yes, it's extraordinary but someday it will be ordinary.

Cool! I've always loved that word...and I loved how you summed it up. I hope in the paradise I never stop appreciating what I have...When things are going good, I can quickly forget to thank Jehovah.

I do too.

So I guess I should never think that life ordinary.

And when I remember how wonderful it is that I can BREATH on my own, that I can WALK my neighborhood and SEE the beautiful view of his creation, that I can FEEL the breeze and sun upon my face. I'd better stop what I'm doing and thank him before I forget again.

being alive in and of itself is extraordinary, isn't it? It's remembering that from moment to moment that's hard. Before we know it, though, the desire of every living thing will be fulfilled and we will truly know what extraordinary is meant from Jehovah's perspective.
