Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
Today is Cheer Up the Lonely Day. It's an opportunity to make a lonely person happy. Any time you can make someone happy, you've done a good thing, and should be proud of yourself.
Spend some time today cheering up lonely people. It's easy to do.....just spend some time with them. What a lonely person really needs, is face to face time with other people.
Make someone happy and you will be happy too !
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Cheerfulness is the best promoter of health and is as friendly to the mind as to the body.
Joseph Addison
Thankfully, I’m not a lonely person. There are plenty of people in my life to smile and laugh with. I’m very thankful for that and appreciate them very much. Not everyone is so blessed though, and they do need a hug and a smile too.
For me the hazy lazy days of summer are definitely here. I’m doing less and enjoying it more it seems. Every day brings a few surprises our way though. We never know what’s going to come our way, so for today I’m thankful.
We do need to remember we are never truly alone, no matter what the good Lord is always there right long beside us to carry us through.
Every day might not be a good one, but there is something good to be found in every day.
I hope you all have a SUPER Saturday ! Be cheerful !
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
2934. for hugs and smiles, they keep loneliness at bay
2935. for friends and family
2936. for cards to send out to those far away
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.
Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU ALL !

I hope you have a wonderful day!! I'm so ready for FALL!! The hot weather is really taking a toll!!
Off the top of my head, I don't think I know of anyone who's lonely ... then again, in the past I've felt really lonely for no good reason, even in a crowd.
I suspect there are some lonely souls in Blogland whose days could be brightened by a simple 'hello.'
It is great you are enjoying the lazy days of summer, Ma :) With how fast this year seems to be flying, soon the cooler weather will be around, so enjoy the nice days while you can.

Love the idea of cheering up the lonely day Pam! I have come to discover through the years that we are surrounded by lonely people. You know that friend at church that latches onto you in a conversation that you can't seem to get away from? Chances are they are probably very lonely and really need someone to talk to. I make sure I spend extra time with them. Thanks for all that you share! You're a real gem! Have a fabulous Sunday! xoxo
