Life is not the way it is supposed to be. It is the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.

Sunday evening

Someone is going to smile as a young man is walking up the courtyard with flowers in hand and I would guess he is about to make someone smile; flowers have a way of saying what is in the heart and gives us reason to smile. Yep, I was lucky and got a beautiful bouquet that is on my dining room table. It is Sunday evening and I have my shoes off and are not going anywhere for the rest of this day. I was up early, out the door with two beautiful caring daughters and had a delicious breakfast cooked by granddaughter Erin and then went on to try my luck at the casino and although I did not come home with a chest full of money, I did come home with some of my own money and memories of love and laughter. Sunshine, a lovely ride, good company and lots of good things to eat and even a gift or two ...Mother's Day....Birthday....how lucky I am. The day itself was a gift of sunshine and fresh air. The ride was smooth and not a lot of heavy traffic although there were a lot of folks on the road. All in all I had a wonderful day and want to take time to say thank you to each and everyone of you who remembered me with love, laughter and a gift or two...how lucky I am. Thank you seems inadequate but the words and feelings are from my heart and I thank each and everyone for the love and care shared today. The sun is out, the trees are still, the lady across the way is changing the bird feeder or maybe just filling it to keep those hungry birds happy. There are only a couple of cars out there on the tarmac and the bird is still on the roof top. My shoes are off, my chair awaits and the tv is on. I am hunkering down and have no intention of going anywhere or doing anything more today. Well...a walk to the kitchen to look for something good and I don't think there is anything good in this house. If there was, I would have found it by now...smile. I hope your weekend was all you wanted it to be. I hope you found love and hugs to share. It is not to late as the sun is still up and there is time to make someone you love and like a bit of your love and attention before the day is gone. Be good, be kind be generous and share YOU with those you love and like. The trees are swaying in the breeze, the bird is on the rooftop, the silence can be heard and I am off to sit in my easy chair, watch a little TV and put my feet up but not before I go out to the kitchen, heat some coffee, and maybe look for a 'small'...'tiny' bit of something sweet.. if there is anything left...which I doubt. smile. Be good be kind, be a lover, be YOU!! Hugs to all.
