I am posting this because of how blessed I felt truly experiencing how lucky I really am, my suggestion is you do the same – it will shake you to the core and warm your heart
I went outside this morning to put some mail out for pick up and it was COLD and RAINING. All I had on was an old T shirt I sleep in and a pair of shorts, and slippers. As I turned to go back in it hit me like a bolt of lightning – I can shelter from this cold, rainy, bad weather into a warm home with breakfast waiting. The poor, hungry and homeless have to live in this terrible weather, no food, no money, nothing. I felt how it must feel to not have a warm home to shelter in. I stood out in the cold rain and almost cried thinking of not having someplace to go, something to eat. Try it. Go out the front door in very little clothing and as you are standing in this mess of cold and rain, think about not having a house behind you to escape the weather. Think about not having that cup of coffee or that bagel waiting for you. See?

We have absolutely nothing to complain about.

God Bless Us All

We are all OK.  No matter what anyone says, you are OK.  Now go spread that OK everywhere you go, to everyone you meet. 🙂

Make at least 1 goal when you wake up, and make sure it happens!  Wash the dishes, walk around the block, clean the bathroom, get a carton of milk from the store.  Aim for at least 1 and make it happen – you can do it!

Tomorrow wake up and aim to make it a GREAT day by assuring you remember how lucky you are to be alive, how thankful you are that you have a great family, and how nice and respectful you can be to those around you.  Smile! 🙂

Hello Friends – I am having to take breaks for personal reasons and hope you will bare with me!  I will try my best to get post up daily and I thank you for your support 🙂

Do you find yourself being mean, angry, disrespectful, and just plain hateful to others a lot of the time?  Could it be because there is something going on in your mind, a memory of the past,  memory of how you were put upon badly, abused, treated mean, angry, disrespectful and hated? Could it be that you treat others this way because you haven’t made peace with your monsters from the past?  Could it be that you are still in pain about your past and you make it your mission in life to see to it that you can find anyone to put that same hurt, pain, heartbreak and disappointment on?  Ya think?   Friends, let me say this.  We all have these same skeletons in our closet to some extent.  If we are lucky we learn to make peace with the past and not let it ruin our future.  Being angry, disrespectful, mean and hateful is not only a bad to turn you into the same monsters and memories you are running away from, it is also no way to live.  Life is meant to be happy, enjoyable and fulfilling.  And Life is short.  The memory hurt and betrayals of the past may never be something you can forgive or forget, but it surely can be packed away and “accidentally” lost in the move.  You can stop and count to 10 before you lose yourself to the past and take it out on others.  You are better than this and deserve a good life.  Don’t let the past ruin your future.  Live to be happy fulfilled and get all the enjoyment out of your short time on this earth as you can.  Let go of the bad and let the good move in to your heart.  I am sure there is PLENTY of room in there!
