Surely you know it ISN'T SAFE to DRIVE while you are ONLY LOOKING IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR

     If you want to know what is in FRONT OF YOU it will REQUIRE YOU to LOOK FORWARD.

     You CAN'T DRIVE SAFELY while you are ONLY LOOKING IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR.

     If you want to AVOID TROUBLE COMING you can ONLY GET OUT OF THE WAY if you SEE TROUBLE COMING YOUR WAY.

    If you want to KNOW what you NEED TO KNOW it will REQUIRE YOU to LEARN what YOU NEED TO KNOW.

    It could be RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU but you WON'T SEE IT unless you LOOK FOR IT.

    KEEP YOUR EYES WIDE OPEN as you go on your LIFE'S JOURNEY so you can SEE WHAT YOU NEED TO SEE.

    Remember that the REARVIEW MIRROR is made to SEE WHERE YOU HAVE BEEN and how FAR YOU HAVE COME.

    The FRONT WINDSHIELD is made so you can SEE WHAT IS IN FRONT OF YOU SO YOU CAN NAVIGATE SAFELY while you are on your LIFE'S JOURNEY.

    Leave the PAST IN THE PAST so you can FOCUS ON THE PRESENT MOMENT YOU ARE IN and ENJOY IT.

TRY an EXPERIMENT to SEE what a difference WHAT YOU DO Makes

    What do you think the DIFFERENCE would be between them If you add PLANT FOOD to ONE of your PLANTS but NOT to the OTHER ONE?

   During a DROUGHT SEASON YOU will have to WATER YOUR GRASS if you want to have HEALTHY GREEN GRASS.

   If you want to REAP THE REWARDS for the HARD WORK, you will have TO DO THE HARD WORK it will take.

   Be REALISTIC that Things WILL TAKE TIME, they just don't happen in an INSTANT.

  SO STOP EXPECTING INSTANT GRATIFICATION SO you can STOP getting ANGRY when you don't get INSTANT GRATIFICATION.

   During tough times to keep MOVING just Remind yourself that WHAT YOU PUT INTO IT will DETERMINE WHAT YOU GET OUT OF IT.

   Because it's TRUE that you REAP WHAT YOU SOW.

    LIFE LESSONS come from the LESSONS you LEARN on your LIFE'S JOURNEY.

   

   

   

   

   

    

IT is what it is until....one day IT ISN'T

     What USED to WORK may NOT WORK ANYMORE, THAT'S JUST LIFE.

    What USED to be POPULAR at one time CAN one day be a MEMORY from the PAST.

    What USED to be your FAVORITE thing TO DO CHANGES with TIME.

   What USED to be FOUND everywhere can one day be HARD TO FIND.

   YOU CAN'T get too COMFORTABLE in LIFE because LIFE IS ALWAYS CHANGING.

   Remember IT IS what IT IS until....one day IT ISN'T, THAT'S JUST LIFE.

   YOU may NOT KNOW what the FUTURE HOLDS but REMEMBER that everything will be OKAY as long as YOU ADJUST to the CHANGES AS YOU GO.

   

   

With CREATIVITY you will CREATE A SOLUTION

    There will be CIRCUMSTANCES that you will have to face on your LIFE'S JOURNEY and you will have to get CREATIVE to get through them.

   Things will CHANGE on your LIFE'S JOURNEY from TIME TO TIME and you will have to get  CREATIVE to make the necessary CHANGES to NAVIGATE through them.

   With the PRICE of EVERYTHING going UP you will have to get CREATIVE to STRETCH YOUR MONEY to get what you need.

   Make sure that you don't do anything to get through a TEMPORARY SETBACK that will CREATE a PROBLEM that will affect you NEGATIVELY for YOUR LIFETIME.

   AS LONG AS you get CREATIVE AND ALWAYS STICK to the STANDARDS YOU SET for YOURSELF on your LIFE'S JOURNEY you can get THROUGH ANYTHING.

Conversation between people let's everyone FEEL HEARD

      If YOU don't MAKE the TIME to LISTEN then YOU will have NO IDEA HOW THEY FEEL.

   If YOU don't TAKE the TIME to sit down and TALK ABOUT IT then THEY will have NO IDEA HOW YOU FEEL. 

   WHEN you UNDERSTAND how EACH of YOU FEEL then YOU BOTH can WORK THINGS OUT and YOU BOTH CAN BE HAPPY.

   Sometimes when YOU NEED to TALK to someone in a BUSINESS to WORK THINGS OUT you can't get past the ROBOT to TALK TO A HUMAN.

   Sometimes in Life when it comes to a BUSINESS YOU NEVER FEEL HEARD because the HUMAN that OWNS the BUSINESS DOESN'T CARE HOW YOU FEEL.

   BEFORE the Pandemic there were MANY MOM AND POP STORES that were OPEN who CARED ABOUT how you FELT so YOU would be their REGULAR CUSTOMER.

  UNFORTUNATELY the LESS COMPETITION a BUSINESS has the LESS they CARE how YOU FEEL because you have NO CHOICE but to SHOP THERE because they are the ONLY TYPE OF STORE AVAILABLE TO SHOP AT.

   If YOU want STORES TO COMPETE for your BUSINESS then SUPPORT YOUR MOM AND POP STORES so there will be COMPETITION TO PLEASE THE CUSTOMER.

   If YOU want to have OPTIONS then keep your OPTIONS OPEN.

It's a HOME NOT A STORAGE UNIT

     You can make it FEEL LIKE HOME without SPENDING a fortune.

    You can FEEL COMFORTABLE in YOUR HOME without SPENDING a fortune.

    You can RELAX in YOUR HOME by NOT HAVING TO WORK EXTRA to PAY FOR THINGS TO FILL IT that you DON'T EVEN NEED.

   You DON'T have to KEEP UP WITH THE JONES'S and fill your HOME with THINGS THAT YOU CAN'T AFFORD.

    REMEMBER it is YOUR HOME.... NOT A STORAGE UNIT to store THINGS THAT YOU DON'T NEED while you MAKE PAYMENTS ON THEM.

   HOME SWEET HOME is SIMPLY THE FEELING OF BEING COMFORTABLE HAVING EVERYTHING YOU NEED in YOUR HOME, EVEN THOUGH YOU DON'T HAVE EVERYTHING YOU EVER DREAMED OF HAVING.

   To APPRECIATE WHAT YOU HAVE, it will REQUIRE YOU TO  BE THANKFUL for WHAT YOU DO HAVE.

   

    

    

SUNNY DAYS are awesome but you have to remember What COMES WITH the SUN.

    When you LOOK OUTSIDE and see that it is a beautiful SUNNY DAY it makes you SMILE FROM EAR TO EAR as you ENJOY the VIEW.

   I could see the Butterflies and the Bees OUTSIDE JUST flying all around our flowers gathering the pollen.

   I DECIDED to take my coffee and go sit OUTSIDE on my porch to ENJOY the beautiful SUNNY DAY we were having today.

   It started out RELAXING JUST SITTING OUTSIDE PEACEFULLY ENJOYING NATURE but before I knew it a BEE decided the HAIRSPRAY I was wearing was A GOLD MINE OF POLLEN.

   I finally got the BEE to RETURN TO THE FLOWERS but now I am wore out after all that WAVING AROUND to SHOO AWAY THAT BEE I had to do.

   I tried to GET BACK TO JUST RELAXING OUTSIDE and ENJOY the SUNNY DAY but then I started THINKING about how UNCOMFORTABLY HOT I was because I was SITTING OUTSIDE on a HOT SUNNY DAY.

   THEN.... that BEE DECIDED to MAKE SURE he ANNOYED ME ENOUGH to make me GO BACK INSIDE THE HOUSE so he and all the OTHER INSECTS could ENJOY THE SUNNY DAY.

   So IN THE END ME AND THE BEE AGREED that I would ENJOY IT FROM THE AIR CONDITIONED INSIDE of my house DURING the HOTTEST PARTS OF THE DAY.... OUTSIDE WAS ALL THEIRS TO ENJOY.

   It might be your FAVORITE KIND OF Weather but that doesn't mean you will LOVE EVERYTHING THAT COMES ALONG WITH YOUR FAVORITE WEATHER.
