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.

Happy Anniversary!
Today is also Left Handers’ Day with celebrates the 10% of the population that is left handed. If you are left handed you know that living in a world designed for right handed people can be difficult. Opening doors, writing in spiral notebooks and using a computer mouse can be awkward and frustrating
Studies have shown that left handedness is often associated with intellectual creativity. Famous left handers include Michelangelo, Mozart, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Henson, and 8 of our 44 presidents.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction.
Antoine de Saint Exupery
Today’s anniversary is another of the many long distance celebrations in my family. A card was sent wishing this son and his wife much love and happiness. I should be seeing them this coming weekend though as they are having a party to celebrate our little Precious One’s birthday.
My DDH was the only left handed person in our immediate family. None of our children inherited that trait from him. He could use his right hand almost as well as the left hand and sometimes did, but his left handedness prevailed.
It was a quiet and restful weekend here at my house. Now it’s time to start another week. My to do list is full of what I hope to accomplish this week. We’ll see just how much I get done. Today should be sunny with a high of 80 degrees. Not bad at all for mid August.
I hope you all have a GREAT start to this new week. Happy Monday!

It's a blessing to see them so happy.
Love seeing your beautiful family pictures! My sister, Nita, is left handed. The only one I know f in our family although we may have a left handed quadruplet. I’m not quite sure yet.
Wishing you a week of accomplishments! I love a Monday because the week stretches out in front of us and everything looks possible! I must sew that quilt together since the shower is Saturday afternoon.
Pace yourself! The week is yet young!
Happy Anniversary to this beautiful couple … they're all so photogenic!
Yep, I'm a 'leftie.' Rather, someone once observed, "You're left handed and right armed." He went on to explain, while I eat and write with my left hand, I perform sports (i.e., throwing a ball), heavy lifting etc. with my right. I thought that was kind of interesting.
Happy Anniversary to DDS#6 and his lovely bride! Those were interesting statistics about being left handed. No one in our family (so far) is. Good that there is a day to recognize the uniqueness of being left handed.

Happy Anniversary 💒💏
