Happy Friday to you the very last weekend of January 2011.
Another month gone, nobody seems to mind January going away, the cold, the snow covered roads, oh I guess the snow boarders and skiers might mind but hey they still make snow in February right?
We have about 51 days till spring and how awesome is that huh? The countdown starts:
Think spring quote and a poem:
If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.
~Anne Bradstreet
***********
And Spring arose on the garden fair,
Like the Spirit of Love felt everywhere;
And each flower and herb on Earth's dark breast
rose from the dreams of its wintry rest.
~Percy Bysshe Shelley, "The Sensitive Plant"
Flowing into the weekend with thoughts of spring. Not a bad plan or trivial idea. I think not. We should all have spring like thoughts about anything our heart yearns for.
We are placed on this planet to have free will. We can choose.
We can choose to think on despair or have an attitude of delight.
We can choose to have jealousy of another or a heart of gratitude.
We can choose. Always have had that power.
Its not were we are raised in location.
Its not who raised us that matters.
It is what we become with what drive we have.
We are all instruments of God, but we get to write the music. We are the music makers and dreamers of dreams. A quote I have shared many times from Willy Wonka.
So today and everyday choose to be an instrument of love. Kind and caring. Sharing that simple sincere smile. Holding that door open for the next person, or letting someone into your lane on the road of life. Be gentle, be kind, be slow to anger but fast to praise.
Praise life! Praise God! You will love the image in the mirror and so will the next person.
Have a great Friday everyone!
Just flowing into Friday with you and sending you a smile along the journey.
May your smiles abound.
May your joy lift another spirit.
May you stay hungry and stay foolish!
May your heart be warmed because it always was.
Smiles sent your way this day and always!
Happy Friday everyone! : )
