ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
TUESDAY,NOVEMBER 9TH, 2021
The moments 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!

Today is Chaos Never Dies Day which recognizes the fact that turmoil, craziness, hectic and disorder are a part of our modern everyday life.
Chaos is defined as a state of confusion or disorder or in other words a lack of order.
So if you feel like you are overwhelmed by hectic and stress of your every day like, maybe today is the right day to accept these circumstances and try to deal with it. Make this day your day to take it a little bit slower and let chaos be chaos.
If you can't see the bright side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
A schedule defends from chaos and whim. It is a net for catching days. It is a scaffolding on which a worker can start and labor with both hands at sections of time.
Annie Dillard
I don’t necessarily keep to a schedule, but I do keep a to do list. It helps me to keep on track and helps me not forget what I need to do. Every day can bring some confusion our way. Surprises are always happening so I try to go with the flow and keep calm.
Being flexible allows me to keep calm and I don’t get upset if something changes and I can’t do what I wanted to do. There is nothing I have to do, but in case I forget, I keep lists. Nothing is more appreciated here more than an ordinary day when nothing is happening and things can go with the flow. No upsets, or surprises.
I call my home my peaceful place. It’s where I am comfortable. Not everything is in order, but I have everything I need.
The good news today is that I’m going to go and get my vaccine booster shot. I have an appointment this afternoon. The beautiful weather is still here so it’ll be a good day to get out.
I hope you all have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough and more. It turns denial into acceptance , Chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast and a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.
Melody Beattie
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.

Ha! One of my son's favorite pieces of advise is: "Embrace the chaos." For sure, there's no avoiding it; like Murphy's Law.
Your turkey figurine(?) has caught my eye! My mother had one that looked exactly like it -- only hers was a planter. I don't recall having seen it after they moved; maybe she just didn't like it that much, but it was one of those fixtures of my childhood.
Uh, that should be ADVICE (not advise). Sorry!
