Gloria to God:
Beloved God, I don’t know what I really have to say to You, but I know I want to personally be here with You this morning.
God:
Be with Me always. Know where you are.
Gloria:
Thank You, dear God.
There is so much love that comes in on me from Heavenletters™ that belongs to You. The love is almost too much to bear.
God:
You are going to have to bear it, beloved. All love is Mine, and all love is yours. Ocean waves are for all.

Gloria to Blogreaders:
I had such a good time writing this blog. You don’t have to read it. It’s okay. You don’t have to go further. My daughter suggested that what comes next constitutes her least favorite blog entry.
I said to her: Why, Lauren, this is the cleverest entry I ever wrote.
She said: Clever isn’t good on you, Mom.
Here goes anyway:
I have heard that positive stress is equivalent to negative stress. In other words, great happiness takes its toll on you. Like winning the lottery – it can do you in.
Consider Cinderella. I don’t think her life is what it was cracked up to be.
Her life in the ashes with her wicked stepmother and wicked stepsisters wasn’t a piece of cake, but imagine how stressful it must have been for her when her fairy Godmother appeared in broad daylight. How would you feel?
You might think elated. But let’s get real — having a real life fairy Godmother appear might be enough stress to last a lifetime.
And, as if that weren’t enough, then poor Cinderella had to stand by and watch a pumpkin turn into a coach and mice turn into coachmen! This doesn’t sound like an easy day to me.
Have you ever considered how stressful it must have been for Cinderella to know that she had a curfew at the stroke of 12? Not just an ordinary curfew, mind you, but one, if she didn’t leave in time, the coach would turn back into a pumpkin, the coachmen would turn into mice again, and she wouldn’t be wearing her beautiful gown any longer. Would you really have had an exultant few hours at the ball?
And then there was the awful stress of meeting the prince and having him fall in love with you right away?!!! Pack all that into one night, and see how you would feel.
On top of that, the cruelest blow of all — Cinderella loses a shoe! Wouldn’t that alone be enough stress for one evening for any woman?
Cinderella can’t go back to the ashes she came from. Of course not, but, furthermore, day after day, night after night, year after year, she is put in the difficult spot of having to be a princess from then on. Think about it. I don’t know how she does it.
Perhaps we need to have compassion for all those who meet with undreamed of happiness. Perhaps a support group. TMHTB — Too Much Happiness to Bear. We could meet once a month.
