Take Time to Relax and Reflect

A Quote from a novel that I had to write down

While reading a novel last night my neighbor loaned to me I came across a sentence that hit me and I had to stop reading and write it down.  The words were......

         

 "Forget what hurt you in the past, but never forget what it taught you" 

"Wherever You Are, Be All There" - Jim Elliot

   

Nostalgia and Counting My Blessings

While going through some things for our upcoming move, I came across an old Polaroid picture I took about 37 years ago when my daughter was 2-1/2.  We flew to Florida to visit my parents and I snapped this picture of her "snuggling" with her Grampy (my dad).  I am blessed to have a wonderful, loving family and two amazing and loving children

 

I love kayaking on the lake with the loons swimming around me

Oh The Lure of the Ocean
