Me, me, me

The other day on my way to work, I was having my morning talk with God. Help me do this, help me forgive that, help me throught this day, etc.

Then I remembered my prayer list I had started. It had many names on it and so I began talking to God about the folks on that list. I had been do thing for about 20 minutes when it dawned on me that I had been praying all wrong.

I should have been praying for others, focusing on others, lifting others up, helping others, and the me would fall in place. Put me last and others first. Isn't that what God teaches?

Clouds

Does God have as much fun playing with clouds and making all those different shapes as we do playing in the sand?

Rainbows

Wednesday I was coming home from the Grands house in the rain I saw the most beautiful rainbow!

Have you ever seen the ENDS of a rainbow?? BOTH of them? I never have until the other day! I'm thinking that the car in front of me had not seen it either because they were weaving on the road too!

This rainbow was soooo clear! I could see every color! All the way across! The pot of gold was the golden fields of cut corn! It was such an awesome rainbow! Rarely have I seen one where you can pick out all the colors in each line!

THEN as I was driving, IT MOVED WITH ME! IT MOVED IN FRONT OF THE TREES! IT LOOKED LIKE CELLOPHANE PAPER! I COULD SEE THE TREES THROUGH THE RAINBOW! IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS ON THE ROAD WITH ME! ON BOTH SIDES!

Then I caught up with it and went under it and it disappeared!

Never in my life have I seen a rainbow like this! I am not going to put up a picture of a rainbow because I want you to imagine THIS one! It was glorious!

Have a super great day!

Hugs!

Some of my favorite sayings

Laugh uncontrollably, it clears the mind!

Sometimes I pretend to be normal, but it gets boring, so I go back to being me. . .

Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain!

If the shoe fits, buy one in every color!

Count your blessings, not your worries!

Forget the potholes in the road, enjoy the journey instead!

Find something to laugh about every day!

If at first you don't succeed, change the rules!!

Take time to laugh, it is the music of the soul!

What are some of your favorite sayings??

Have you ever. . .

Reba asked that in her song.

Not sure I ever have been.

Life-not always as we envisioned!

Is life ever the way you envisioned it as a kid?

I wanted to be married, have 6 kids and bake cookies and live in a beautiful house with my beautiful family.

I got married. Several times.

I was pregnant 6 times. 5 which produced live births, and 4 of which are still living.

I have lived in several nice houses.

I have a beautiful family.

I got my wish, it just wasn't EXACTLY as I envisioned it. But I got the best part! My family!

How about you? What was your wish or dream as a kiddo?

Hugs!

A Thinkin' Place? or A Fallin' Off Place?

I'm thinkin' that is would be a great thinkin' place. But I guess it could be a great fallin' off place too.



That's the cedar tree in my back yard. The ladder is about 12 foot.

What do you think? A great place to think? Or fall?


Hugs!
