First Day Back to Work....

    Lord thank you for another day... Thanks for not letting me break any bones during the course of the day(LOL)...
  Bless those who are less fortunate than myself and allow them peace and hope to fill their hearts as they get closer to you.

       Let me tell you, I wanted to die. It was freezing at work today. You would have thought I work outside. Wrong. I am as indoors as it gets. My company sponsors a flower show every year around spring time.Normally the weather is much warmer. Right now we are looking at 15-40 degree weather, when normally it is 50-70....

Although, the flowers are beautiful I would much rather have the real ones that come from outside. And the weather that comes with it. Winter does not seem to want to leave us, and the snow that is coming this weekend is really not allowing the flowers to bloom through. What can we do? We can just pray for a long summer.

  The flowers are beautiful to look. It keeps me hopeful that we will be warm soon. I had a minor surgery last week. I was home all week driving my poor husband crazy... I know I was so whiny. I couldn't stand myself. But coming back to work today was hard on my. It was cold and my bones were hurting . Got me thinking about a lot of things in life that I want to do. I am going to do more things in life. I do not know when my last day on this earth is going to be ,but in the meantime I want to live my days like if it was my last. I want to live it fully and joyous. I want to be remember as someone kind and with good intentions and happy.
                                          Which brings me to my story today.

               The story I chose today come from a lady who is 85 years old and these are her words as she tells them....
       "If I Had My Life To Live Over"

     I'd dare to make more mistakes next time.
   I'd relax. I would limber up.
I would be sillier than I have this trip.
I would take fewer things seriously.
I would take more chances.
I would take more trips.
I would climb more mountains and swim more rivers.
I would eat more ice cream and less beans.
I would perhaps have more actual troubles but I'd have fewer imaginary ones....
You see, I'm one of those people who live sensibly and sanely hour after hour, day after day.
Oh, I've had my moments and if I had it to do over again, I'd have more of them. In fact I'd try to have nothing else. Just moments.
One after another, instead of living so many years ahead of each day.

I've been one of those people who never go anywhere without a thermometer, a hot water bottle, a raincoat and a parachute.
If I had it to do again, I would travel lighter next time.
If I had my life to live over, I would start barefoot earlier in the spring and stay that way later in the fall.
I would go to more dances.
I would ride more merry-go-rounds.
I would pick more daises.
                    This was a story I read and chose for me to discuss with you today. I am always complaining about something and I hardly ever look around and just be contend with what I already have. It's like I have to do more because if I feel like I have nothing more to accomplish , then I am not showing my kids to reach for the stars. Reach for the inevitable. You know the saying" THE STARS ARE THE LIMIT" ...
Yet what I want them to learn is to enjoy reaching there.....
