Have a nice day


Have a nice day .... ♪♫•*¨*•.¸¸ ˚❀‿❀˚


To those I may have wronged
I ask for forgiveness
To those I may have helped
I wish I did more

To those I neglected
to help
I ask for understanding
To those who helped me
I sincerely thank you so very very much.

motivation, and a pinch of creativity.”

Praise and blame, gain and loss, pleasure and sorrow come and go like the wind. To be happy, rest like a giant tree, in the midst of them all.

"It's easy to get lost in endless speculation.
So today, release the need to know 
why things happen as they do. 
Instead, ask for the insight

Ruby Tuesday

It's not about what's in our purses or our pockets.

It's about what's in our hearts.


It's THOSE riches that we need to share ♥ Be generous, give 


something to someone today.... ♥



God is like a star, not too close to burn us…Not too far to leave us in darkness, but near enough to guide us on our way…God Bless always…

Have a fabulous Tuesday everyone.




We are thrilled to be spending time with Kim and Drew visiting from Australia...............

Many gatherings taking place and we are loving each and every one of them.

It all begins and ends with family.


The Victor
If you think you are beaten, you are.
If you think you dare not, you don't.
If you like to win but think you can't, 
It's almost a cinch you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you're lost.
For out in the world we find
Success begins with a fellow's will.
It's all in the state of mind.
If you think you are out classed, you are.
You've got to think high to rise.
You've got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win the prize.
Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man.
But sooner of later, the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can.
C.W. Longenecker

Nature is not always tricked in holiday attire, but the same 

scene which yesterday breathed perfume and glittered as for 

the frolic of the nymphs, is overspread with melancholy 

today. Nature always wears the colors of the spirit.” ♥

This life is yours. Take the power to choose what you want to do and do it well. Take the power to love what you want in life and love it honestly. Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature. Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you. Take the power to make your life happy.” ♥

“The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention...A loving silence often has far more power to heal and to connect than the most well-intentioned words.”

"It is human life. We are blown upon the world; we float 

buoyantly upon the summer air a little while, complacently 

showing off our grace of form and our dainty iridescent 


colors; then we vanish with a little puff, leaving nothing 


behind but a memory..." ♥

When you quiet the mind the soul speaks.

It helps me realize how BEAUTIFUL my world is."

Life is Sweet most of the time, but once in a while
it shows us its not so pretty other side, and that's
when we have to awake and grasp the opportunity
life is giving our Spirits to learn the lessons we are
still missing in our curriculum from the school of Life,.

It's very precious this letter if you have a chance to read it.

Count Your Blessings ♥´´¯`•.¸¸.♫´¯`•.¸¸.♥

Count your blessings instead of your crosses;
Count your gains instead of your losses.
Count your joys instead of your woes;
Count your friends instead of your foes.

Count your smiles instead of your tears;
Count your courage instead of your fears.
Count your full years instead of your lean;
Count your kind deeds instead of your mean.
Count your health instead of your wealth;
Love your neighbor as much as yourself.

Love is an eternal and everlasting bond. Love is when two people want to be together even though they have seen the absolute worst in each other. It is about having a strong conviction of not giving up on each other even though you have put each other through hell. Love is all about embracing imperfections and making your relationship perfect. It is about overcoming the fear of betrayal by having immense faith in each other and holding on to each other in worst circumstances Love is not about touching each other’s bodies but about touching each other’s souls to cherish the divinity being together till the end of time..
