ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
The moments of our lives may be bright with possibility, dark with fear or sadness, or even plain everyday gray, but God's glory never fades. May God's glory shine into the exciting lights, upsetting darks, and boring grays of your every day.

Today is Dr, Seuss’s Birthday, which is a day to celebrate all kinds of reading. He was born in 1904 and went on to become the famous writer and cartoonist we all love today. Dr. Seuss wrote and illustrated 44 children’s books containing fun rhymes, wacky plots and outrageous characters.
Dr. Seuss’s books were so popular that he also had multiple TV specials and series films and a Broadway musical named after them. His books are loved worldwide and published in many different languages. He received numerous awards for his work such as a Pulitzer Prize, two Academy Awards, two Emmy Awards and a Peabody Award.
It’s a day to enjoy green eggs and ham !
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living; it’s a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life’s realities.
Dr. Seuss
I have read and own several Dr. Seuss books and enjoy them. They are a lot of fun and full of wisdom in a quirky way. His books are definitely not just for children.
Laughter makes us healthier. Laughter is a good thing and an important part of life. Laughter is something we all need even if it is to laugh at ourselves now and then. It’s important to keep your sense of humor. It goes a long way to keeping stress at bay.
After experiencing several spring days in a row. We are back to cold and snow. But it is March now and we know it’s not going to last long. Warmer days will return and before we know it, we’ll be saying it’s too hot outside. It’s a rare thing to have perfect days and perfect weather.
I’m going to try and laugh more, love more and live life to the fullest each day!
Fun is good !
Dr. Seuss
I hope you all have a FANTASTIC Friday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.
Dr. Seuss
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
5758. for Dr. Suess, a wise man
5759. for laughter, it’s good for whatever ails you
5760. for Spring, it’s on its way
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!

You are so right. Currently I have no one to read to, altho one is expected, a great, in August. I would never give up even one of my Suess books.
We amassed quite a collection of Dr. Seuss books (and just about every other kids' book you can imagine) when our children were growing up. I've since passed them on to our grandchildren... except for ONE book. It's a 3-stories-in-1-volume that contains the story "Yertle the Turtle." I LOVE that book! It's given me great pleasure to read it to many children over the years. And of course, I also bought a copy for the grands. :)
Have a super weekend.
Laughter is the BEST medicine! I'm enchanted by the thought of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. :)
