Our Flag


 

I wish that we could say "Thank you for your service" to each of those who paid the ultimate price that gave us the freedom that we still enjoy today.

I feel it is a privilege to be able to thank a serviceman or woman who serve or have served in the United States Military.  It would be wonderful if we never had to see a flag draped over a coffin of a returning servicemen or servicewomen again.  But that is not realistic in the world today.  

Today is the day we remember them and the service that they performed

Negativity Committee

I think this is a must.

As of late, the negativity committee seems to be in full swing for many of us.

It is time to do this NOW.

Are you struggling?


I know I am.
I have no idea where the month of February went.
I swear it was just January, really wasn't it?


 This really says it all

I promise I will never QUIT ... I may say I QUIT when I am totally frustrated but then I will take a deep breath and carry on.

Are you with me?  We CAN do this together.

January 31st already??

Where did the month go? I swear it just flew by.

Weren't we just celebrating the New Year?

There are so many things I wanted to get done this month, before the craziness starts. You know, that time where we have to figure out what we owe the government and how we are going to pay them OR if we are really lucky, how we want them to pay us.

I will NOT stress.



I definitely need to put this into practice every day, or it will be a very long year, without getting the things accomplished that I really want to get accomplished this year.

I do NOT want to be looking at December thinking I wasted the year. I definitely will NOT stress!

A reason?

 Have you ever really thought about this?

Sometimes I wonder, especially when things happen seemingly "out of the blue", what am I suppose to do with this or learn from this?

I know there are all kinds of reasons that things happen, but this really hits it on the head.



Try not to miss the message OR the reason.  

The message may not be to do something, it could be to NOT do something.  Don't be so stubborn and believe that YOU and only you, know what to do. 

Believe it or not, there are times when we really don't know. 

I'm pretty sure we will miss out on something good if we do.

Follow that dream

 Sometimes I think dreamers have the right idea.

Now don't get me wrong, I am the "practical" one.  Oh I tried to be artistic, but in the long run, that was better left to my sister.  I just wonder if I can be the "practical" one AND the "dreamer"?



What do you think?

Can you be both?  Or do you have to pick one or the other?

What you are

 

Please, please, please take this to heart.

Read it,

    Think about it,

        Accept it as truth.



Thank you Kristen for the reminder.

We all need to be reminded that sometimes our soul knows more than our mind.

Yes, I AM going to make it

 

Do you ever wonder if you can do that which you have wanted to do since you were a child?  Or when you became an adult?

I know there are times that I wonder if I am on the right path.  I wonder if I should just throw in the towel because it just doesn't seem to be working out.

That's why I keep this one on my phone.  I'm thinking I should make it my screen saver.

Enjoy today

 No matter what is going on in your life, remember this.




I know some are sitting in a part of the country that is fridged .. ok that is an understatement ... when the temps before wind chill is in the negative numbers there is not word for it.

Then there are some of us that are feeling cold, even though the thermometer says 50 ... but the South just doesn't do cold.

And then there are others who look out their windows and smile because it is "another day in paradise".


Where every you are Enjoy the Day, I know I am going to put every effort into doing just that.

Are you truly happy?

 Before you answer, look at this.



I know that there are times I really get annoyed when the "direct" path I have in mind gets detoured.

Then I saw this sign above a door in the hospital when I was visiting my dad a little more than a year ago.  I stopped thinking about being annoyed and more about what the detour was telling me.

Sometimes the best things are shown to us when we least expect it and many times when we are off of our prepared plans.

So enjoy those detours ... it could be sending you in the direction of your best choices.

This is the year for YOU

 I want to make this the BEST year ever, for my family, my friends, and of course for myself.

I believe that these are what will be included in my "theme" for the year.



And of course, this will be a reminder when I fail ... and we all know that there will be some, or what we "think" or are told are failures.



How about you?

Are you with me?
