No words to be exchanged, just pure and simple unconditional love.
Happy New Year Everyone
Happy New Year to all of my friends and family, I wish you all a better year than last. I can’t say that this year is a new beginning because I try and look at every day that I wake up as a new beginning and a new day to get things right. Enjoy life and not just the big accomplishments but the little ones that really count. The things that matter the most are hearing and saying I love you a million times a day, random hugs and kisses for no reason, phone calls/or texts just to check in and say hi. Get together even if it is just for a “quick cup.” Ask someone how their day is going. Give second chances. Listen to someone vent just to make them feel better. Be compassionate and understand that not everyone lives by the same book that you do so don’t judge. Reach out to someone who you haven’t spoken to in a while. Go out of your way to make someone happy. Don’t gossip, it hurts and is VERY destructive. Watch your words and think about what you say before you say it and please teach your kids the same. Don’t make fun of those who are less fortunate than you, you never know; you just might end up in the same situation. Take care of yourself, as in mind and body (you only get one so treat it right). I really want to go on and on but I think you get the gist of this post so I’ll cut it short FOR NOW lol.
Bottom line and I think I’m repeating myself, BE KIND. It is amazing how doing something nice for someone else or just treating others with the same respect that you would want, can truly make you feel good.
Be safe and have a great 2016.
Beautiful morning in upstate New York
Good morning everyone. Today’s thought is never feel defeated. Only you can control your outcome. With positive thoughts and determination anything can be done.
Don’t give up. Stay focused.
Am I telling you this or am I telling myself this? It’s a bit of both. I sometimes have to reassure myself of my affirmations. Today I need a lot of reassurance and faith.
Have a great day everyone 🙂 
Two Steps Back
In our mind we think that when things go wrong, we have no luck or we are just doomed. This isn’t the case. In order for things to come together they must fall apart. And, in the current situtaion or circumstance that you are going through, that just might very well be a good thing.
If you are in a relationship that you think is irreconciable but you still love that person the best thing to do to make it better is to sometimes walk away for a while.
There are so many unknowns in life. Everyday, every second, every moment of your life is an unknown. My philosophy is to just roll with it. Don’t stress. Don’t fret. Don’t worry. It is a waste of precious time. There is only so much you can do to change the inevitiable. That is why the word inevitable is so important. You truly do not have control over what is destin to come. So….just let it happen. Learn from your mistakes that created that inevitable and critique for the future.
I’ve change the tempo of my blog so many times but I guess I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s just a compilation of my life. The good, the bad, and the inevitable lol.
My header pic is of my new apartment. It’s a shot of my sun/bedroom and my cat Moo Moo. I love my simple life and over the course of oh I’d say the past ten years is when I really started to think about what it’s all about.
Stop. Think about what’s important and enjoy it.
Until next post…. have a great day and be kind.
