TODAY’S QUOTE
The resurrection gives my life meaning and direction and the opportunity to start over no matter what my circumstances.
Robert Flatt
IT’S MONDAY !!
I had a great Sunday and it went by way too fast. I wound up having breakfast after church with DS#6, his wife and DD and her husband. DS#6 and his wife went with me to put flowers on my DDH’s grave and then we did a little shopping as there were some things they were looking for.
The weather started out mild and sunny but cooler temps and clouds moved in before the end of the day. Today and tomorrow have SNOW in the forecast.
They say we could get 1 to 2 inches. I do not want to see that for sure.
I’ll have to get the warm winter coat out again. I tried to put it away but it looks like I will need it for awhile yet.
Take good care all!
Have a great day all ! Another wonderful one on the Way !

TODAY’S SMILE
A son and his father were walking in the mountains. Suddenly, the son falls, hurts himself and screams: "AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!" To his surprise, he hears the voice repeating, somewhere in the mountain: "AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!" Curious, he yells: "Who are you?" He receives the answer: "Who are you?"
Angered at the response, he screams: "Coward!" He receives the answer: "Coward!" He looks to his father and asks: "What's going on?"
The father smiles and says: "My son, pay attention." And then he screams to the mountain: "I admire you!" The voice answers: "I admire you!" Again the man screams: "You are a champion!" The voice answers: "You are a champion!"
The boy is surprised, but does not understand.
Then the father explains: "People call this ECHO, but really this is LIFE. It gives you back everything you say or do. Our life is simply a reflection of our actions. If you want more love in the world, create more love in your heart. This relationship applies to everything, in all aspects of life.
Life will give you back everything you have given to it.
YOUR LIFE IS NOT A COINCIDENCE. IT'S A REFLECTION OF YOU!
