Many Thanks

I'd like to thank everyone I met in my life

Maureen Stapelton

Some folks will rub you the wrong way

Others will give you just what you need

There are those you wish had never crossed your path

                            ....Those  who made your life very hard

Those who you never really got to know

and those you will always remember even when they are gone

We should be thankful for them all

Because they helped make you who you are

And that can be a very good thing

if you let it

and that's poetiquejustis

Dear brothers and sisters, we can't help but thank God for you, because your faith is flourishing and your love for one another is growing.

A Little Something

Time for a little something

A A Milne

Today, I need a little something

a little bit of

A little laughter

I need a little cottage

Where the wildflowers can watch me grow

I need a little

A little rest

A little quiet

Today, I just need a little something

so I will have

a little something to give

I know there is a little something around here somewhere

 

I don't quite remember where I left it

 

 But today, I am off to find it

And that is poetiquejustis

 

 Do not despise these small beginnings, 

for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin

Then live it

Let everyone see how reasonable and gentle you are. The Lord is near!

What You Do Today

It is always too early to quit

Norman Vincent Peale

Imagine what your world would be

If you did all the things you are talking about doing

Having adventures instead of idea

Making progress instead of excuses

Where would you be if you headed down the road ahead

Instead of frantically looking for detours?

So tell me...

Where will you be tomorrow

If you just get it done today?

Ralph Marston said:

What you do today can improve your tomorrow.

Bad Things Happnen

The world is so full of suffering-

and it is also the overcoming of it

Helen Keller

Bad things happen

Good people step in

unkind words hurt

Kind words seek to help

Bad can take away so much

Good can give so much back

Today-

Go...be good to one another

Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Something we should never lose

 A strong mind always hopes 

and always has cause to hope.

Thomas Carlyle

Hope

Victor Frankl tells us loss of hope

is harder to overcome than loss of the material

Hope

It is that belief of Annie's in the sun coming up

Hope

It is what gets us out of bed

It keeps us searching for answers

Keeps us believing in our dreams

Hope is the greatest gift we can give to the day

And that the day can give us in return

Hope

is what I hope for you

today

and that's is poetiquejustis

A strong mind always hopes, and has always cause to hope.
