Make Each Day Beautiful

Make Each Day Beautiful

Sometimes it takes 

a really beautiful day

to wake us up to the wonders

of the world around us.

A blossoming flower,

 a sunny sky~

sometimes

these are the only things

our eyes look for

and value as worthwhile...

But there is so much more

to life,

so much more to enjoy,

if we can learn to see 

with our hearts as well

as our eyes...

 To be aware of each day,

each experience,

as a separate wonder

of it's own,

to meet each challenge eagerly

and grasp each moment

with a sense of newness

and discovery~

this is what living 

is really all about.

Enjoy this Beautiful Day the Lord has blessed us with, before long fall will be here. I am looking forward to cooler air and the beautiful colors we'll

be blessed with.

 Be Blessed!

Make a Beautiful Day!

Sometimes it takes

a really beautiful day

to wake us up to the wonders

of  the world around us.

A Blossoming flower

a sunny sky~

sometimes

these are the only things

our eyes look for

and value as worthwhile...

But there is so much more 

to life,

so much more to enjoy,

if we can learn to see

with our hearts as well

as our eyes.

To be aware of each day,

each experience,

as a separate wonder

of its own,

to meet each challenge eagerly

and grasp each moment

with a sense of newness

and discovery~~

this is what living is really all about.

As I meditate on those words from a little book my friend gave me years ago, I realize the truth of in each word.  The beauty in all that's around us.  The snow and ice has melted away and the daffodils are blooming and soon the trees will be all dressed in green.  The smell of flowers in the air, with children laughing and playing, brings joy to my heart.

I picked a bouquet of daffodils to brighten up the table.  Made myself a cup of tea and a plate with banana cake and strawberries.  I whipped up some fresh heavy cream. I didn't bake the cake, it's a Sara Lee Snack Cake,  A nice quiet time to ponder my thoughts is always a treat.  With all the problems in this world and in our own daily lives, it's good to take a time to be alone to clear our thoughts.

Have A Blessed Day!

JUST BECAUSE.....ROSES AND BLESSINGS

Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is Good!

PSALM 107:1

Happiness is all around....

It is in the morning's sunshine

And the evening's quiet hours.

It's in all that's  bright and beautiful~

In rainbows, fields and flowers..

It's in warm and tender moments

And in special feelings, too~~

All the simple, little joys

we gather all life through.

This morning my hubby bought me a dozen pink roses.

" Just Because!"

He's such a keeper.  In all our years (50)  of marriage, with

our ups and downs, he has always been there to make me

Happy!

I do have to be careful what I say I want, because he will try

his best to get it.

WISHING YOU ALL A BLESSED AND HAPPY

WEEKEND!
