Miracles

Loving this.
Sharing for you all ...

Life
is a series
of a thousand
little miracles.
Notice them.
Embrace them.
Absorb them.
Share them.

Good Tenant

No one to acknowledge for this.
There are so so so so many people
that need to read this ...
sometimes multiple times ...
and I hope it helps ...

Do not let anyone
rent a space
in your head,
unless they are 
a good tenant.

Tiny

Not sure who the penned this,
but very aware of the author.

I love places
that make you realize
how tiny
you and your problems
really are.

Enjoy your day
and all its blessings.

Shine

Without anyone to properly credit,
I am simply sharing.

It is not
in just one way
that you shine ...
but ...
a million little ways
that you light up
the world.

A Dog upon a Chain

 Written for so so so so many reasons ...

A Dog upon a Chain

by Lyn Marinello

 

Here I am, the chained up dog, my yard’s grass is worn beneath.

I may bark and I may growl, but I rarely bare my teeth.

I am fiercely loyal; a staunch protector of my pack.

Seldom the aggressor, but when provoked, I will attack.

I will raise my hackles. I might race til the links may break.

My conviction to my owner is the only thing at stake.

I may occasionally get loose and wander from my domain,

But I will always come back home to the security of my chain.

I am often times permitted to sit upon the shaded deck,

Or offered up an outing, a companion on your trek.

I am fed enough to stay, scratched sporadically behind an ear.

I may seem mostly docile but am alert to those who near.

I exist on minimal praise; or a much appreciated treat.

I sit ready, tail a-wagging, dutifully at your feet.

I embrace my boundaries though they’re not always clear.

I may test my tether’s limits but my devotion is sincere.

I am eager to obey commands, though I scratch and sometimes dig.

I’ll bring back the entire branch when you’ve only thrown a twig.

I am at my most content with purpose unrestrained.

I am just a steadfast hound, tied up here, upon this chain.


Whatcha think?

Contribution

I took this little tidbit
and Lynified it for you kids.
I hope you enjoy ...

If you want to know
where to find
your contribution
to the world ...
look at your wounds.
When you learn
how to not react to them,
but to respond;
how to recognize
the lesson in them;
how to realize
the strength they provide;
how to become stronger
in spite of them;
how to heal them ...
teach others.

Have a Happy Halloween!
I hope you're blessed
with full sized Nestle crunch bars.

Urgent!

With only a name who posted to acknowledge ...
thank you Lauren F.

There is nothing
more urgent today
than taking care
of your mind,
your body,
and your soul.

Please do so
today ...
and always.
