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 Sorry Charlie Day which is for all of us who have been spurned , and yet somehow survived it.
Celebrate the day and take a minute to reflect upon a past rejection and then smile with the realization that you are not alone, it happens to all of us at one time or another.
Whether we’ve been rejected by a sweetheart, a prospective employer or by the bank for a loan, we have all been refused but it’s important to remember how you bounced back and what you learned from them.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Failure is the opportunity to begin again, more intelligently.
Henry Ford
Life is too short to get stuck on failures that can only drive us toward success. Each time we fail, it teaches us something. The only real failure is not learning from the past.
We need to keep moving forward. I remember all the times I fell and scraped my knees when learning to ride my bike as a kid. I had to try over and over to stay up and keep pedaling, but it sure felt good when I finally did it!
Every day we get a new beginning and another chance to try again. A new day to start over. Take a deep breath and start again. No matter what our life situations look like, it is never to late to start over.
It’s the end of another work week and for many it will be the end of their Spring break. Today’s pictures are of my lovely Spring flowers. The Easter lily has been blooming and still has many buds that will soon open too. Easter lily’s remind us of the new growth of flowers that represent spring and new beginnings!
I hope you all have a FANTASTIC Friday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Each moment is a new beginning.
Each day is a new life.
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
5863. for new beginnings
5864. for life and all it’s wonder and awe.
5865. for a new day to celebrate
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!

Exquisite lily! That last shot practically had me reaching for the monitor to stroke it.
"Sorry, Charlie" cracks me up, remembering that commercial. Poor Charlie! It's mighty reassuring to look back and realize I wasn't the Lone Ranger Loser I once believed myself to be!
