ON THE BRIGHT SIDE

Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
Today is Compliment Day. It’s a great opportunity to say something positive about the people you come into contact with. Everyone has good attributes, that's right, everyone.
Its a cinch to find compliments for family and loved ones. Friends are friends because you see something good about them. It's more challenging to compliment your boss, or people you don't like. Take up the challenge, and find a compliment for them today, too.
Remember: Mama said, If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything. After a long search for something good, if you just can't find a compliment for them, then silence is golden.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
Leo Buscaglia
Giving a compliment is a positive action that has lasting affects. So many people hold back compliments and it becomes a wasted opportunity of being kind. You never know when you're going to be the one who makes another person's day. Give of yourself and you will find yourself. Give the world the best you have and the best will come back to you. A kind word is never wasted. Strive to be first: first to nod, first to smile, first to compliment and first to forgive.
Remember: It’s nice to be important but it’s more important to be nice.
God was just showing off when he created you.
From the movie Keeping the Faith

I Hope You Do!

I hope you woke up this morning with a big smile on your face
I hope the sun is shining just for you
and the birds are singing their very best songs...
I hope your coffee is hot and tastes just right
and the cats are purring contentedly, and the mailman waves a
cheery hello and there are no bills in the mailbox...
I hope just everything goes your way ...
I hope everything is well with your world,
a place for everything and everything in it's place...
I hope you can enjoy all you do and you are
complimented on the way
you look and you can laugh
and talk and share to your heart's content
I hope you have all you wish for yourself and those dear to you,
and all your dreams come true...
At the end of the day
I wish you a perfect moon shining just for you,
a snug and cozy bed with the softest of pillows
and I hope you sleep like a lamb with a smile on your face...
I hope you have a perfect end to the perfect day
and I hope that every day is just as wonderful in it's own way
I hope your day is ... filled with love!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
I can live for two months on a good compliment.
Mark Twain
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is always, always something to be thankful for.
2429. for compliments, they do make us feel appreciated
2430. for another day to try and get it right
2431. for a few winter days with no snow, cold but no snow is good
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Lord, hold our troops in
your loving hands.
Protect them as they protect us.
Bless them and their families for the
selfless acts they perform for us
in our time of need. I ask this in the
name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT's
GOD BLESS YOU !
ADVICE FOR TODAY
When you cannot get a compliment in any other way pay yourself one.
Mark Twain
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,
ma

Now, this is a neat theme for today! (Suppose it would be an awful thing to fib and bring as my 'show and tell' to Monday morning's line-up?)
Compliments are wonderful things, yes ... as long as they're sincere; and haven't we all been on the receiving end of the 'other kind' at one time or another?
Sending you a compliment, Ma, for all the wonderful things you post on your blogs in the form of poems, pictures, quotes, etc. All are inspiring and enjoyed!
