Too much time on my hands today,,,

This is from a husband who just lost his wife...

I belong to a MSN board , we all met on line, when we were PG with babies born in 2001. Recently one member , Katie, who was 30, died of cancer. Although I never met her physically, we conversed via the internet. This is a post on her Husbands Journal. She was taken from this earth very quickly and leaves 3 small children behind. It is very sad and I read this passage and learn a great deal from it, and hopefully bring these words into my own life.

"With every ending comes also a new beginning. With every disappointment comes a new opportunity for success.
With every mistake comes a new and valuable lesson to be learned. With every setback comes a new position from which to move forward.
With every frustration comes the energy to move to a higher level of achievement. With every challenge comes a new strategy for taking action.
With every time of darkness comes the chance to make a real difference by shining your own special light, Gods light. With every sadness comes a deeper appreciation for the joys that life can hold.
With every difficulty comes a new level of strength to be gained. With every loss comes an increased determination to win.
Though life has many pitfalls and problems, there is a positive side to every one of them. Choose to see and live that positive reality, and no problem will be a problem for long. "

Will I be a Gardener

Today on my walk, once again enjoying the sunshine on my cheeks, I passed a little old lady in her tiny garden. She was prepping the soil for the vegetables she was going to plant. She was a stout older lady,who looked like she was probably pretty tough in her day. Her husband was sitting in a chair, just watching. I guess he must be too ill to help. I stopped and just watched her dig up the dirt and walk back and forth to get the things she needed. Then I thought will that be me someday? Will I live in an adult community, gated, and have a little 10 by 10 plot to grow my own vegetables? Will a little plot of land, be the thing that keeps me getting up in the morning? Will the work that I do yeild the crop I want? Who knows, but somehow I can see that happening... I will always need something to do and something to be proud of..maybe it will be a little garden.. who knows?

Just a Great Image---- Mother and Child

I found this today and thought it was beautiful. Made me miss my sons as babies. Made me miss that feeling when a baby is tucked into your breast.. made me miss the little hands and feet... Reflection is good, healthy for my soul, but it does make me weepy all the same.

The unknown Man.... was just here

He walked by the store, stopped came in and started to talk .. He was talking about being postive and creating good memories.... Be around people who make you feel good, get rid of those that are like poison on the soul. He said .."do you want to get rich quick?" I said,"no not really" (thinking here comes the next part to this conversation trying to sell me something) .Then he said " get rich by counting your blessings and you are instantly rich." How true that is..... What an odd thing to happen to me out of the blue, I mean where did this guy come from and why did he choose to stop and chat with me for 15 minutes? Doesnt matter, really, it was interesting to listen to him.. and even more interesting to me , to discover I am rich in so many ways............. blessed I am.....

Simple Pleasures

I am at work today. my little part time job that makes me feel happy inside. I walked here today, in the glorious sunshine listening to my Ipod. It's funny how something so simple, like a walk in the sun,alone, can make you smile. I felt like I was 15 years old again, carefree and oblivious to the real world. The songs on my ipod actually made me sing outloud, I sure hope no passer bys were mortified by it, but to be honest I just didnt care. Now I am at work in a great mood and just enjoying the peace and quiet...
