Food for thought...looking forward...

Just something to keep in mind as the winter days linger and the snow keeps us in...

***Nine weeks from today, March 9th...Daylight Savings Time begins...

***Ten weeks from today, March 20th...First Day of Spring!

Now, how's that for goals??

Serenity Sunday...week 39

Groundhogs Day is right around the corner. When it's this time of year and February 2nd is upon us...who cannot think of this movie?

Spring...new beginnings, fresh starts...

SPRING....new beginnings, fresh starts and all that goes with it. That's where we are. Mother Nature is giving us a helping hand. For me it seems that spring is a better time for renewal than the new year. It's when the air is freshly washed and the soil has been turned to reveal new growth. We "spring clean" to invoke a sense of cleanliness, why not 'clean' ourselves of the old and renew our attitudes? Seems to me it's should be a regular part of our spring ritual. Enjoy your spring and do whatever it is that makes you the best you can be....

FOOTSTEPS
Slowly, methodically,
I retraced my footsteps,
reached far back into my memory,
remembered the moments of my life.
I looked for the where’s, when’s,
the what’s, and how’s,
the who’s and why’s,
that brought me to today.
I needed to find out what shaped me,
molded me, into the person I am.
The trip down memory lane made me realize
that I didn’t regret a moment of my life.
I didn’t want to change anything at all,
because changing only one moment,
one decision, would have changed
not only my life, but the lives of those I love.
When I reached my destination,
It was clear to me who I am,
And I was pleased to have taken the journey.
