Remember The Moment !

One of the most tragic things I know
about human nature
is that all of us tend to put off living .
We are all dreaming of some magical
rose garden over the horizon-------
instead of enjoying the roses that are
blooming outside our windows today.

A Sunbeam

The beauty of the sunbeam
lies partly in the fact
that God does not keep it ;
He gives it away to us all  :)

May happy sunbeams come your way .

If We But Believe

If we put our problems
in God's hand,
There is nothing
we need understand...
It is enough
to just believe
That what we need
we will recieve.

Optimism

Hi Y'all

Today is a bit on the cloudy ,windy ,trying to rain ,
but not quite certain sort of day.
In other words gloomy ,but it sent me looking
for something to do while being still .
I found some   magazines I was saving  for a garden scrapbook .
As a reminder to myself  that sunny days will soon
be back again and so will my garden blooms :)
The birds have already started to migrate our way so it won't be long !
While looking through them I found a couple of  thoughts to share.


Gardening is an exercise in Optimism.
Sometimes,it is the triumph of hope over experience.

Where flowers bloom,

So does hope .

Pearls and Clams

Howdy  Y'all

Recently I recived a wonderful card about pearls
from a fellow blogger :)
I also recieved a magazine from my son
that had an article about pearls.
A long story short .
I read the card ,read the article
and now I'd like to share what I learned.


"Once in a thousand clams you find a pearl and once
in a thousand pearls you find a good one."

Greeting Card

Once there was an oyster
who was going through
some "REALLY" irritating Stuff.
It made a pearl.
Then it made another.
By the time things got better,
The oyster had a necklace and
some very nice earrings !!!


What I learned
is a simple reminder that there is
a silver lining to the stuff  life brings our way .
Lesson : this cowgirl  will be wearing pearls one of these days :)

Seriously while we all go through stuff
sometimes we forget there is a reason
and in due season it will all turn out the way it is meant to .

One more thing Y'all 
I found this clipping stuffed inside an old book :)
Hope you enjoy !



Kindness has been described in many ways.
It is the poetry of the heart,
the music of the world.
It is a golden chain which binds society together.
Kind words produce their own beautiful image in man's soul.
Everyone knows the pleasure of recieving a kind look,
a warm greeting ,a hand held out in time of need.
And such gestures can be made at so little expence,
yet they bring such dividends to the investor.
