You CAN because it HAPPENED to CAUSE IT

      Every Day is a NEW DAY as long as YOU ENJOY THE MOMENT you are in NOT WASTE IT thinking about ANOTHER DAY.

      There MAY BE many ways TO DO IT but the only thing that WORKS for you is what you WILL HAVE TO DO.

     It may SOUND GOOD but that DOESN'T MEAN that it IS SOMETHING for you to do.

     What works for SOMEONE ELSE may NOT WORK for you because IT JUST DOESN'T work for you.

     You may have WANTED IT but..... you GET WHAT YOU GET IN LIFE, that's JUST LIFE.

     What HAPPENS is what is MEANT TO HAPPEN to GET YOU Wear you were MEANT TO BE REGARDLESS of where YOU THOUGHT you COULD BE.

     WHEREVER YOU ARE PLANTED TODAY is WHERE YOU WILL BUILD YOUR FEET DEEP in the GROUND to GROW STRONGLY TO WEATHER OUT the LIFE STORMS.

    LIFE is LIFE and YESTERDAY is already gone and TOMORROW may never come but TODAY IS YOUR'S TO ENJOY while you are LIVING IT.

  

     

What can you FIND when you have PLENTY OF TIME to FIND IT?

      I WOKE UP super early this morning so I DECIDED to get DRESSED and GO DRIVING and SEE what I could FIND.

     It was a BEAUTIFUL SUNNY MORNING and EVEN DRIVING was BEAUTIFUL TODAY even with a little bit of TRAFFIC.

     I DECIDED to stop by our local Dunkin DONUTS and grab a quick SWEETENED DOUGHNUT to get EXCITEDLY MOVING.

    I REMEMBERED that the local Joann fabrics store was closing so I DECIDED to head that way and SEE what else I might FIND within my 35 minute ride to GET THERE. 

     I DECIDED to stop by EACH OF the WALGREENS stores along the way..... two on the WAY THERE and two on the WAY BACK HOME.

     When I got to the store I JUST COULDN'T believe HOW EMPTY the CRAFT STORE would be in JUST TWO WEEKS of CLOSING.

    I was HOPING to pick up a few CHRISTMAS ITEMS but there WASN'T ANYTHING but EMPTY SHELVES.

    I THOUGHT okay I will pick up a few CHRISTMAS PRESENTS of CRAFTS for my GRANDKIDS for CHRISTMAS.... but those SHELVES were EMPTY TWO.

    Then I THOUGHT I could get a great deal on a few SEWING MACHINES for my older GRANDKIDS but although they HAD PLENTY they had not GONE DOWN in price but by 15 Percent.

    I DECIDED to just GRAB A FEW little things and get the SEWING MACHINE only when they got EVEN CHEAPER.

     I REALIZED that Just because a STORE IS CLOSING doesn't mean that you are GOING TO GET a GOOD PRICE on anything.

    I then at least GOT EXCITED that HOPEFULLY I could FIND some GOOD PRICES on something at the WALGREENS for someone's CHRISTMAS on the way home.

    I DIDN'T FIND anything TODAY but it was such a BEAUTIFUL DAY REGARDLESS of NOT FINDING ANYTHING special AT ALL.

    When the SUN COMES SHINING you can ENJOY A SUNNY DAY. 🌻

The FLOWERING GARDEN can't GROW unless you WATER IT

     If you LOVE FLOWERS then DECIDE if you are GOING TO WATER THEM or LEAVE THEM AT THE STORE for everyone to ENJOY THEM because if you don't WATER THEM then they CAN'T GROW.

     The NUMBER OF NEW FLOWERS my husband bought at Home Depot was so AMAZING TO SEE AT OUR HOUSE TODAY.

     My husband has BECAME an instant GARDENER just by all the MISTAKES he made from HIS FIRST GARDEN that he made LAST YEAR.

    We got to TOTALLY ENJOY every MOMENT we had with the FLOWERS he bought but..... they DIDN'T SURVIVE through the winter.

     This Year he BOUGHT specifically by KNOWING exactly what he KNEW he would NEED this year.

    The FIRST thing he did was by at least ONE OF EVERY COLOR of FLOWER that they OWNED so HE COULD ENJOY them all.

    I always KNEW I didn't GROW A GOOD GARDEN because it REQUIRES YOU to CONSTANTLY WATER THEM EVERY SINGLE DAY.... and UNFORTUNATELY I didn't so they didn't GROW.

     My Husband though..... ACTUALLY LOVES WATERING them every day so HE CAN ENJOY every NEW FLOWER that GROWS ON HIS FLOWERS.

    NEXT WEEK it will be back in the EIGHTY DEGREE WEATHER here and those FLOWERS are going to be MIGHTY THIRSTY 😍.

    If you aren't going to WATER THEM then YOU KNOW that THEY WON'T GROW.

     

    

   

Have you noticed it?

      Have you EVER SEEN the TIME when PEOPLE ARE JUST EXTREMELY RUDE?

     Have you EVER HEARD someone just be EXTREMELY ridiculous to someone?

     Have you EVER SAW someone be EXTREMELY SELFISH for themselves?

     Have you EVER THOUGHT about being TOTALLY RIDICULOUS for how YOU HAVE ACTED?

     IF YOU don't just RELAX and THINK LONG and HARD..... BEFORE you REACT.... YOU might REALIZE that....YOU SHOULD HAVE STOPPED BEFORE YOU REACTED.

     There are MANY THINGS that HAPPEN that SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED.... BUT.....IF IT DID then you SHOULD THINK NEXT TIME BEFORE YOU REACT AT ALL. 

      YOU KNOW we all MAKE MISTAKES but.....it doesn't mean that YOU SHOULD EVER, EVER, EVER REDO IT EVER AGAIN.

    ONCE YOU LEARN....THEN LEARN IT..... AND DON'T EVER DO IT AGAIN....EVER.

     Even if YOUR PARENTS forgot to tell you......then FROM THIS DAY FORWARD... IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING NICE TO SAY....THEN DON'T SAY ANYTHING AT ALL.

     YOUR CHOICES are YOUR CHOICES and EVERY CHOICE YOU MAKE MATTERS.

      YOUR GOOD FORTUNE IS....that YOU ARE AN AWESOME PERSON AND YOU SHOULD BE PROUD OF YOURSELF.

    BE KIND TO EVERYONE YOU MEET......BECAUSE YOU SHOULD.

     

Never before NOW have we NEEDED TO.... JUST LISTEN

      I was LISTENING to different people TALKING about all the DIFFERENT FRUSTRATIONS that they were DEALING with just at that VERY TIME of their LIVES TODAY.

     Because when you are at a DOCTOR'S OFFICE you get PLENTY of EXTRA TIME to just sit and PATIENTLY WAIT AND LISTEN while WAITING for your turn to go see the doctor.

     And wherever and whenever you have plenty of EXTRA TIME...... it gives you plenty of TIME TO THINK about many things that you NORMALLY WOULDN'T have thought about at all.

     When I was YOUNGER we ROUTINELY went to have DINNER at least ONCE A MONTH at many PEOPLE'S HOUSES WHO WE TREASURED to STAY CONNECTED.

     We got to SPEND many MOMENTS LEARNING to CREATE NEW MEMORIES together as well as LEARNING from ALL OF OUR LIVES together OVER AND OVER again.

     The MORE TIME you SPEND with OTHERS then the MORE YOU SEE just how IMPORTANT THOSE SPECIAL MEMORIES would be to you when you are OLDER.

     We ALL THINK just LISTENING can be a WASTE OF TIME but the LITTLE THINGS I LEARNED by JUST LISTENING can one day be EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED TO HEAR LATER in my Life.

     When you get TIME TO LISTEN then..... JUST LISTEN.

     

     

They THINK they KNOW but they DON'T KNOW

     You can THINK YOU KNOW but the TRUTH is YOU ONLY KNOW what they CHOOSE to tell you.

     You may THINK YOU KNOW.... yet WHAT YOU KNOW is.... Only WHAT YOU PRETEND THAT YOU KNOW even though YOU DON'T REALLY KNOW MUCH AT ALL... REALLY.

     When SOMEONE ASK....ALL YOU KNOW is you have to GUESS.... because YOU REALLY HAVE NO IDEA what is REALLY HAPPENING AT ALL.

     JUST ENJOY the precious time you get to SPEND WITH THEM because....we only HAVE THE TIME WE HAVE.

     SO ENJOY EVERY MOMENT that you have even though YOU WILL NEVER KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM.

    I REALIZED that I DON'T NEED TO KNOW but I do NEED TO ENJOY hanging out with THEM EVERY MOMENT that I can.

    Just because YOU KNOW THEM doesn't mean that YOU KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM.

As I listened I had to ASK.....

       As a good friend was talking about how a worker was talking to her.....I wandered if when I was working would I have been angry about FRUSTRATION like that?

      As I was listening to my Doctor I was wondering if I was ASKING MYSELF if I was doing everything that she was ASKING me to do.

      I don't always ASK MYSELF WHY but ...the TRUTH IS..... If you needed to Would you if you could do anything that you needed to?

      WE ALL MUST HELP PEOPLE LEARN how LITTLE THINGS can GET YOU CLOGGED UP and cause you to SEE THINGS DIFFERENTLY.

     Until WE LEARN HOW then WE CAN'T LEARN..... what DOES WORK and what DOESN'T WORK....so WE KNOW WHAT IS BEST FOR US TO DO.

       Only If you ASK YOURSELF will YOU KNOW the ANSWERS.....OR NEVER ASK and never have NO ANSWER AT ALL to MAKE YOUR DECISION ON TODAY.

       ASK YOURSELF so YOU WILL KNOW what YOU SHOULD DO to ENJOY LIFE while you are LIVING IT.
