Soaking up the sun with my friends

I never miss’m Pa this ones for you

nevermissmPa

When I first looked at this house and property I saw this view and I knew this was the place for me. My Pa used to stand here and look out towards the woods in the back and he would always say he spotted a dear, he also warned me that there was coyotes. He was a mountain man so he just knew those things. Today when I saw this and all the grass heavy with dew, I thought of his poem he wrote there is a line in it that goes….

Don’t take the sun away from me, take anything but the sun! I feel the same way! As long as I have this beautiful view to wake up and drink in the goodness of God everything is ok in my world. Have a blessed day!

Don’t Quit

Wow A, this made me cry in a good way of course! I was thinking today what happens when life’s cheerleader needs a cheerleader? I guess God sends one for me cause here you are posting just what I needed! It’s amazing when you actually think of quitting everything how powerful the downward spiral. I once cried for 3 months solid and wondered if the sadness would ever lift and it does! This time though I was being brave and took an unexpected hit, knocked my flat down. I thought to myself this morning I’m getting tired of getting back up I believe I’ll stay here. So thank you for posting this! I’m going to copy it and put it in my wall right now and every time I look at it I’ll smile and think how my sweet friend A came to the rescue! Much love and great appreciation to you A! 💗

I posted this twice in 2012, and today, Michelle Marie commented on my post that sometimes it seems all uphill and it reminded me of this, so I had to repost this again.

……………………

When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill.
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh.
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns.
And many a fellow turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out.
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man.
Often the struggler has given…

take care for it rains

take care for it rains
I slow my pace~I miss
On the shutters of my eyes~I shut
On my face a kiss~ I smile
On my shoulder a blanket~I
Huddle
Thunder overhead~I wait
1001~1002~1003
Bolts of light across the sky~I watch
A shower show for me~I see
take care for it rains
Storms the mate of my soul
it is life I fear
storms they are my friend

What Would You Do If You Knew You Could Not Fail?

My sweet friend A always has a good word and today I happen to need it! My favorite “You may not control all the evernts that happen to you but, you can decide not to be reduced by them. Maya Angelou” good word!

If you have been really wanting to do something, but are afraid of failure, how would you react if you knew you wouldn’t fail? If you knew that taking that step would be the best thing you ever did? Would you ask that person to dinner if you knew they would say yes? Would you go parachuting if you knew for certain you would survive? Would you tell someone you loved them if you knew it was reciprocated?

How do you know it won’t? Don’t be afraid of failure, look for the success. Don’t hide behind the “what if …” look at the “it will …

What would you do if you knew you could not fail?
What would you do if you knew you may not fail?
