Choose your Attitude

Treasures In The Garden

 

You can't hang out with negative people

and experience a positive day.......

 

Never regret knowing people in your life.

Good people bring happiness.

Bad people bring experience.

Worse people bring lessons.

Best people will always bring

experiences to commit to your memories.

                                                                  Soul Writings

.......Turn negative into positive.

 

My word for today is "CHOICE!"

 

 

 

Good Thinking, Jock!

                

    Treasures In The Garden

 

   Our thinking can either make us feel good.......

 

We are what we think.

All that we are arises 

with our thoughts.

With our thoughts,

we make the world.

                      Buddha

.......or it can make us feel bad. 

 

I will do my best to choose thoughts that make me feel as good as possible!

My word for today is "THINKING!"

 

 

 

 

 

               

The journey keeps on keeping on.......

Treasures In The Garden 

 

Whilst on this journey.......

While on the journey called "Life",
Take the good with the bad.
Smile even when you feel sad,
Love what you've got,
Remember what you had,
 Always Forgive,
You don't have to forget,
Learn by the mistakes you have made...
But never Regret.
 People change,
 Things can go wrong.
Just REMEMBER
the journey still goes on.
                            Carole Herman

.......life goes on. And if we stop, we get left behind!

 

My word for today is "Journey!"
 

Reaching our potential

Treasures In The Garden

 

Don't forget........

 

We tend to neglect to water
the good within ourselves,
 and eventually the good can die.
 And if the good dies
 we won't reach our potential.
                                  Dilbert in the morning

.......to nurture the "goodness garden" within ourselves.

 

My word for today is "Nurture!"  

 

 

Looking past our faults

Treasures In The Garden

Find Beauty and goodness.....

 

We need to water and fertilise the goodness within ourselves,
 just as we would water and fetilise the plants in our garden.
  We sometimes neglect to nurture the good inside us,
 and eventually that goodness could die.
 We need to realise the potential we have inside us.

One of the greatest gifts bestowed on us is
 the ability to reach past our faults and find
 that we have been gifted with beauty and goodness.
                                         Morning Story with Dilbert


The goodness is God living in our soul 
and the beauty is ourselves responding.


So let us look after ourselves and release our potential!
                                                             

Continuing On Life's Journey....

Treasures In The Garden

 

We are all important....

 

I look for the good in everyone I meet.
 I respect everyone I encounter.
I have stopped passing negative judgments.
I respect each person's life journey,
and I respect my own life journey.

God has placed us all here on earth for a specific reason.
 We are people of value!
 

 

 

 

 

To Know when You Have Succeded

Treasures In The Garden

How will you know you have succeed in life?

 

To laugh often and much;
to be respected by your peers;
when you have received the affection of children;
when you earn and are appreciated by honest critics;
when you can endure betrayal by false friends;
when you can appreciate the beauty that surrounds you;
when are able to find good in other people;
when you can leave the world a better place than when you entered it,
whether it be by a healthy child, 
a garden patch,,
a changed social condition;
to know that even one life has been made easier
because you have lived and trod upon this earth.

  This is to have succeeded in life.

A Harvest of Love

Whist being kind to others

always remember to be kind to yourself.

A good is never lost.
The person who sows courtesy reaps friendship.
The person who plants kindness is a gatherer of LOVE!

A Rainy Day

Today is the first day of the rest of my life.

My life gets more fabulous each day as
 I look forward to what new experience
each day new day will bring.

Today we have rain- glorious rain. It is falling steadily and constant. We see so little rain in our area of the country. It is always a Godsend whenever it arrives. This downfall began as we went to bed at about 9.45 pm last night and  has not stopped since then. Eventhough I water the garden, it does not respond the way it does whe rain falls.

We had a conversation with our son and his wife who are this week in Calgary in Canada. Our son is in Canada for work but he is also catching up with a school friend and his wife while they have the opportunity to be in Canada and so close. It's so wonderful to have skype that enables us to keep in touch no matter where he is in the world

So the good thing from today is that our son spoke to us today. We got our grocery shopping done. I had a an enjoyable half hour at gym this morning.

What I am grateful for today is that rain is falling on my garden -  and skype.

God in my life today is the rain that is falling, cool weather, money to buy food, good and plenty food to eat, my little white book I read for 6 minutes each night and my prayers I say each day.

"God of peace, bring your peace to our violent world. " Pope Benedict XVI when he visited Ground Zero on April 20 2008 -  where 2,750 beautiful people needlessly lost their life September 11 2001.
He also said: " Peace in the hearts of all men and women and peace among all nations of the earth."
Peace be with you .C
