Xango, hope you are up and around soon. Sorry your aren’t feeling well.

@shoelady60,

Wishing you a nice warm evening. 🌹💕

Peace Out Peeps have a great evening. ✨✨

@xango,

I am so sorry you are feeling that much under the weather. My heart goes out to you.🌹💕
Xango you are one of the sweetest people in our community and I love the banter between
us even if we talk about fresh coffee and bread I like it.

I am thinking the holidays may have something to do with it as well as all the injury.

I am sending you a warm OZ hug and I will be praying for you.

Xango December is my down month the cancer and loved ones passing on Christmas
Day. Please know you are not alone. ✨🌹💕

@Sheba 🍁🍁🍁
And @ Oodiebom

I am sorry to have caused you ladies such concern, I am still recovering.

sheba, how have you been?
It finally rain here after not having rain for several weeks. Nothing major, no pour down more like drizzle one day. And the other following day a gentle rain.
I must admit I have been feeling really down and depressed. I know this will pass and get better, but I do ( for a lack of better words) hate being this way.
I don’t have much to write about, so I’ll not be writing often.

A snake tried to get into the house through the patio door the other day. Hubby screamed and practically had an attack. He’s extremely scared of snakes. I was on the sofa and couldn’t imagine what was going on.

Here’s wishing you and Oodiebom a Blessed Thanksgiving and Holiday Season. Full with bountiful of health, filled with joy.

Happy Friday to you. Rainy afternoon here, I had to turn the lights on in the kitchen because it’s so dreary.🌧

Can’t believe that game last night.🏒 I didn’t go last month and they won. I go yesterday and they lose after a five game winning streak. Guess it must be me and I should stay away.😲 Monday night football is looking real interesting in your area. I read (if it’s true) that Taylor is bringing her parents to the game because they are Eagles fans and will meet his family for the first time. Love is in the air!💕 Ratings should be high and replay of the Super Bowl.

SIL allowed to drive and wear a shoe.👍 She is so happy to get off the couch. Her and hubs went out for a celebration lunch today. Keeping fingers crossed🤞 and praying🙏 you finally get to see your family.

Hugs and kisses to you and Poppy.🤗🥰💖

The Good In All

We need to encourage ourselves to look deeply into all things in our lives to see the inherent goodness of everything.

Sometimes we find it difficult to see the good in people, places, or situations that aren’t to our liking. We focus on the things we don’t like in our lives as a way of fueling our efforts to create change. There is nothing inherently wrong with this, and it is one way we make progress. However, if we get too caught up in this way of looking at the world, we lose touch with our ability to sit back and simply say yes to everything on our plates, which is the true starting point for all successful activity. Sometimes what we really need is to encourage ourselves to look deeply into all things in our lives to see the inherent goodness at the heart of everything.

At the core of this inquiry is the practice of unconditional acceptance, which can be scary because we feel as if we are being asked not to change the things we don’t like. But when we think this way, we are still operating on the surface of our lives. In order to feel the beauty and warmth of full acceptance, we have to be willing to sink deeper into the stratum underlying the external manifestation of our lives. This deeper place of being is the origin of all lasting change, yet its paradox is that when we are in it, we often don’t feel the need to change anything. From this place, we experience the pure beauty of the process of being alive, and we see that all things change in their own time. We don’t need to force anything. If there are things that we do need to change, from this place of serenity we create the shift easily, our hands guided by an energy that resides at the very center of our hearts.

In our active, goal-oriented culture, we learn to distrust stillness and to engage in busywork on the surface of life. This tendency can blind us to the good that lies at the heart of all things. But all we have to do to see again is stop for a moment, let go of our preconceptions and our agendas, and settle into the very center of our hearts, remembering that it is only from here that we can truly see. AMEN! 🎈💕
