Will Wonders Never Cease?

      I think that is a rhetorical question but I know the answer.
The answer is no. Wonders will never cease. Today I got another $100.00. It came, not exactly from out of nowhere, nevertheless, unexpectedly. This time it was from a benefactor who enjoys my writing so much that he paid one hundred dollars for my book. I am very grateful.
      I posted my travel journals for two years without charge and will continue to do so. Since I decided to make my living by writing and wrote my travel journal book, some of my readers who had already read the journals, purchased the book as a way to thank me and support my writing. Simple words cannot express the gratitude I feel for this. It tells me people like my writing and encourages me to stick with it. I don’t know exactly what it is, but I must be doing something right so I’ll just keep doing what comes naturally.
      And as for the wonders.......  I like that expression turned into a statement, “Wonders will never cease.” I’ll have to use it more often, in fact I can imagine myself going around saying it all the time. Yes, I’ll walk down the street, look to my right and point out something to someone nearby, saying, “Look, wonders will never cease!” Then I’ll walk a little further and look to my left, “Wonders will never cease,” I’ll repeat. Then, I’ll look up to the birds soaring, down to the little flower, growing through the pavement and then behind me to every good thing that ever has happened to me in my life. And I’ll keep walking, looking ahead, with a heart of overflowing optimism, still saying, “Wonders will never cease.”

Running total:  $1271.80 closer to my goal of $5000.00
