It's easy to let days fly by

without taking notice to the

world around you.

Life is beautiful.

Soak it in, think about it.

and be grateful.

Merry Christmas!

Why do we love the Grumpy Cat?

There are times when we, as humans, just want to be grumpy.  But social protocol requires us to smile, be agreeable, be kind, stay quiet, and hide our cantankerous  feelings.  Grumpy Cat says the things we humans, would love to say aloud.  If you search online you can find numerous "Grumpy Cat" sayings.  I have posted my favorites.  There are occasions you have to tell others, "No!"  Making too many commitments keeps you away from the people you really want to say, "Yes" to.  And the making lemonade when you are handed lemons thinking; you better be sure that life gave you the sugar and water to make it a really delicous life.

And finally, the "It's not me.  It's you."

All Praise Be Yours, My Lord

For the month of October I wanted to make an entry even though I've been busy.

October has been a beautiful month. The season is really changing. The leaves on the trees are turning many colors. And those trees make the mountains beautiful.  The air is invirgorating. The sky is really blue when the sun is out. And even on the rainy and foggy days, there is a loveliness. 

October reminds me of St. Francis. His feast day is October 4th.

What great things God did with St. Francis.

"He who works with his hands is a laborer.  He who works with his hands and head is a craftsman.  He who works with his hands and head and his heart is an artist."

This is a St. Francis of Assisi quote.

Harvest Moon

The Harvest Moon in my neighborhood.
Gravity pulls it a lot closer tonight.

Always
