As I was preparing today's post, I was considering how clarity is seldom instant. It usually develops over time, and more often than not, it develops out of hard times.
Sometimes we get clarity on the things we really want by realizing a few things that we absolutely do not want, or are not willing to put up with anymore, or after emerging from particular storm. βοΈ
As I considered these things, the following song lyrics came to mind:

πΈ πππ πππ πππ πππππππππ ππ ππ’ π ππ’

πΈπ'π πππππ ππ π ππππππ (π±πππππ), ππππππ πππ πππππ’ πππ’
And then of course that reminded me of the scripture:
Psalm 30:5 (KJV) Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
And along these same lines, reality is that a rainbows only shows up after it rains.
As you work on being clear in your own mind which goals are going to get your time and attention, is there one you'd be willing to share that emerged out of a "dark cloud" season?
