A Monday Memory...

 These beautiful Santa and Mrs. Santa salt and pepper shakers belonged to my parents. I remember seeing them on the table from a very young age. They were painted by a neighbor of theirs, Mrs. Stevens, who lived down the street from them in the first house they bought. They must be nearly 70 years old and are a special treasure to me!

Happy Thanksgiving...

THANKFUL

Somedays, we forget to look around us
Somedays, we can't see the joy that surrounds us
So caught up inside ourselves
We take when we should give
So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And on this day we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us, to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for
Look beyond ourselves
There's so much sorrow
It's way to late to say, I'll cry tomorrow
Each of us must find our truth
It's so long overdue
So for tonight we pray for

What we know can be
And everyday, we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us, to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for
Even with our differences
There is a place we're all connected
Each of us can find each others light
So for tonight, we pray for
What we know can be
And on this day, we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us, to be the change
And even though this world needs so much more
There's so much to be thankful for

Wednesday's Wisdom...

 "Everything that matters,
 takes time."

A quote from "Alfie Stephenson"
 played by Tom Wilkinson in the film
"The Beautiful Fantastic"

He was referring to the growth of the garden, but it can be said of so many things in life. Healing, personal growth, relationships, learning a new skill and more,
 also take time.

Tip for a Tuesday...
