Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
Today, the first Friday in October, we celebrate World SMILE Day.
World Smile Day celebrates the ever popular yellow smiley. It also offers us an opportunity to do an act of kindness. The intent of World Smile Day is to do an act of kindness, or help one person to smile.
A kind heart is a fountain of gladness, making everything in its vicinity freshen into smiles.
Washington Irving
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but, scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable.
Joseph Addison
Smiling is such a wonderful thing to do. I not only makes others feel better, it make us feel good too. I've often thought how wonderful a world this would be if everyone would simply smile at a stranger they see every day. One smile can stop a thousand tears, so just smile.
Smile and do a kindness for someone today! If you see someone without a smile... give them one of yours!
I hope you all have a FANTASTIC Friday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage, and confidence.
Og Mandino
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
3181. for SMILES, a truly wonderful thing
3182. for some delicious cranberry orange bread I got at the Farm Market this week
3183. for apples and more apples, from sauce to cakes they are great
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
83 Days Until Christmas
Dust off your Halloween décor, get out your goblins, and set out your spooky spiders. Kids and adults get so excited when they are able to go through the Halloween tubs and boxes to unearth the treasures that have been hidden for the past 11 months.
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 !
ADVICE FOR TODAY
Smiling Is Infectious
Author Unknown
Smiling is infectious, you catch it like the flu, When someone smiled at me today, I started smiling too. I passed around the corner and someone saw my grin. When he smiled I realized I'd passed it on to him. I thought about that smile, then I realized its worth. A single smile, just like mine could travel round the earth. So, if you feel a smile begin, don't leave it undetected. Let's start an epidemic quick, and get the world infected!
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,
ma
