WordsworthThe Meadow Flower

Photograph found  on  google


How  does  the  Meadow  flower  its  bloom  unfold?

Because  the  lovely  little  flower  is  free  down  to

its  root,  and  in  that  freedom  bold.

~William  Wordsworth



THESE  ARE  MY  THOUGHTS  FOR  TODAY:


Don't  waste  time,  trying  to  be  a  people  pleaser...

but  spend  pleasant  time  with  those  who  want

to  be  with  you.


Don't  waste  time  trying  to  belong  to  the  quote,  "social

circle"...

but  spend  time  being  a  Big  Sister/Big  Brother

to  a  youth  who  is  trying  to  find  their  place  in

the  world  and  you  will  have  done  something

far  more  heroic  than  listening  to  gossip  and

who  has  the  finest  home.


My  daughter-in-love  has  dedicated  a  part  of

her  summer  vacation  being  a  church  camp  counselor.

MY  SON  AND  DAUGHTER-IN-LOVE  DISCUSSED  THIS

BEFORE  MARRIAGE...and  I  might  add...they  are  very

supportive  of  each  other.


Have  a  wonderful  day  today  and  find  the  "JOY"  in  it.


I  watch  TBN   Trinity Broadcasting  Network  and  on  Friday

morning  they  have  a  show:

JOY  IN  OUR  TOWN....It  is  the   REQUIRED  Federal  Regulations

that  you  are  required  to  have  so  many  "community" 

 hours  of  broadcasting...

so  JOY  IN  OUR  TOWN  is  live  from  OKC.


I  HAVE  THE 

JOY,  JOY,  JOY

DOWN  IN  MY  HEART

DOWN  IN  MY  HEART  TO  STAY


HUGS  AND  JOY  TO  YOU

Hello my darling sweet friend! I am soooo happy you visited with me, I was thinking about you and I am such a dingbat I could not remember where to find your blog link! I love the idea of visiting with those who care for you, I think it is so true...I am so sad lately about my sister and her husband are going through a terrible divorce and it is all so sad with their four kids right in the center...the only thing i can seem to do is give it all to Jesus and just continue to ask him to bring them peace. Anyhoo, I pray you are having a delightful blessed day, thank you for keeping up with me and sharing your heart!
hugs,
Olivia
