PERFECTION?

My mother once told me that I will never have everything perfect, and how right she was! When someone out there gives me a negative comment about my writing, I have to stop and remind myself of this quote. And it is okay because no one is perfect. We are only human beings trying to live the best lives we can with the gifts and abilities God has given us. The other thought I had was different strokes for different folks. I don't care for certain things like sword fights and muddy streets in movies like my husband does. There; I feel better now. I'm not perfect. I'm just happy! Enjoy your day today, however imperfect it may be!

WHAT'S YOUR FOCUS?

After getting my teeth cleaned by a dear fan, I was floating on cloud nine. Nothing like someone loving your work! The weather was drizzling rain (one of my favorites) and I proceeded to my favorite store, Walmart, where I found the last two turtlenecks available in my size for half-price. Nice! I wondered if anyone else was as happy as I was, and with no way of knowing of course I just decided to enjoy my happiness and wallow in it. It's a lovely thing to have your housework finished, your dinner simmering in the crock pot and no pending disasters in your family anywhere. My focus is on what can be accomplished, not on what has happened. Big difference when you wake up in the morning and face the day. No matter what happens, the situation can be turned into something good. I think that's a lovely way to live.

TEST THIS OUT!

They have proven that when a woman wakes up in the morning to fresh flowers by her bed, she has a much more positive day. So ladies, for the sake of our own happiness, and the sake of those we are around everyday, I say buy some fresh flowers and make it a lovely day!
