I used to have a handle on life, but it broke. :)
With every choice you make, you create your life.
You can't be both awesome and negative. Choose one.
It's okay to be scared. It means you're about to stretch yourself out of your comfort zone and grow a little.
"You're awesome." Sometimes you just need someone to tell you that you're not as terrible as you think.
In a world where you can be anything, be yourself.
The only way to have a friend is to be one.
A kind word is like a Spring day. - Russian Proverb
Stress comes from trying to do it all on our own. Peace comes from putting it all in God's hands.
If you want to touch the past, touch a rock. If you want to touch the present, touch a flower. If you want to touch the future, touch a life.
Trust.
Kindness and encouragement go a long way!
Share this post for no reason. :)

ReplyDeleteMy favorite quote today is: If you want to touch the past, touch a rock. If you want to touch the present, touch a flower. If you want to touch the future, touch a life.
Have a fabulous day and weekend Linda. ☺
Good morning Linda. I laughed when that little boy slapped those women's backside and they laughed. If I had done that I would have been slapped back or they would have called a cop. Ah yes, being a young kind. I really enjoyed the Barbershop Quartet section. Realistically that music is pretty cool.. I totally loved the one that said, " If you want to touch the past, touch a rock. If you want to touch the present, touch a flower. If you want to touch the future, touch a life." You seem to always put one that mens so much for me.
ReplyDeleteHave a brilliant Saturday my friend. See ya.

The Mynah Bird video was interesting. I had a friend who had one many years ago, and it was spooky how well that bird could talk.
