Choice

This little beauty is from a portion of a post
in reference to the Texas floods,
but boy howdy ...
can it be inserted into absolutely ANY circumstance ...

including your simple day to day.

"... we are (insert name) strong

not because we looked

for someone to blame,

but because we looked

for someone to help.

That's the choice

in front of you right now.

You can rage,

or you can reach out.

You can look for fault lines,

or you can look

for someone to help."

What is your choice?

And Happy 35th to the hubster! Love you!

Life's Luxuries

Some folks focus on bank accounts
and houses, titles, cars and gadgets.

Here are the real luxuries of life ...

time

health

a quiet mind

slow mornings

travel & wandering

rest without guilt

a good night's sleep

calm, lazy days

meaning conversations

home-cooked meals

people you love

people who love you back

Sunsets and Sunrises

A beautiful bit of wisdom

from AJ Lawless
for your Friday ...

It was sunsets 

that taught me

that beauty

sometimes only lasts

for a couple of moments,

and it was sunrises

that showed me

that all it takes

is patience

to experience it

all over again.

There is good all around you.

Seek it. Absorb it. Reflect it.

Three Rules

These kind of jumped on me today.
I have not Lynified them.
They seem pretty straight forward and clear ...

1. Love needs action.

2. Trust needs proof.

3. Sorry needs change.

Have yourselves a beautiful day.

Roar

This came through my feed.
Now ... you've got to understand
that I am a leo in the zodiac
and have always loved to shake my mane and roar.

And this could be applied in a multitude of facets.

It is no longer our job

to wake the sheep.

It is time

to wake the other lions!

Nice

Found this posted by a dear friend.
I have regularly seen a different version of this.
I think I like this one BEST!

The world is full

of nice people.

If you can't find one,

be one.

Have a nice day, kids.

Excited

Found and Lynified:

A large part of being happy

is being excited.

Be excited for ... EVERYTHING!

... making a cup of tea;

seeing a friend;

the next episode

of your favorite show;

a new book;

weddings;

long walks;

quiet woods;

sandy beaches;

aimless road trips;

splurging;

sunrises & sunsets;

gentle rains;

fresh snow;

making memories;

travelling;

laughter;

falling in love.

Live a life you are excited about.
