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.

Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
Today is Awkward Moments Day which celebrates those awkward and embarrassing moments in our lives that have made us want to hide. It is something we all can relate to as we all have our awkward moments from time to time. They are are a part of life.
If anything awkward happens, be sure to see the humor of the situation, have a good laugh about it and know that you are not alone. We all have them. It’s often these moments that make for the best stories and life lessons we’ll never forget.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
It’s only awkward if you let it be.
Silvia Donahue
There is no doubt about it, I’ve had many awkward moments and laugh at myself all the time. Sometimes these moments have made me want to cry, but laughing is the better way to go. Laughter is always the best medicine and definitely makes me feel better.
I’ll never forget the first day of work at the last job I had. I was feeling very important as the job was that of an office manager. I had put on a dress and looked very professional and then I found out that everyone wore jeans to work there and I looked ridiculous in my business dress. I had to go out and buy some jeans so I’d fit in more appropriately. At that time I didn’t even own a pair jeans. What an awkward feeling that was. What could I do but laugh at myself.
The older I get the more I have reasons to laugh. I try to keep in mind that laughter is very good for us. Laughter relieves stress better that most anything else.
The picture above was taken last Easter of some of the grand babes and one of my son’s turned it into a black and white one. He said that they looked like the Little Rascals.
It’s to be a warm and sunny day today, something we rarely have, and I’m hoping to find a sunny spot and soak in some rays. 50 degrees may not sound warm to some but it’s the best we’ve had in quite awhile.
I hope you all have RELAXING Sunday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Everyone is like a butterfly, they start out ugly and awkward and then morph into beautiful graceful butterflies that every one loves.
