{things that make you go hmmm}



The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; They just make the most of everything they have.


Being happy is easy if we are grateful. Unfortunately, seeing what we don’t have is often easier than seeing what we have. Sometimes we need to experience loss before appreciating what we have. So don’t take things for granted. Look at what you have and soon you will have plenty of reasons to be happy.


I know this to be true!

It amazes me to see how many people will sell out their souls for mere trinkets. Good health, relationships, and integrity are the things of this world that cannot be bought but are often unappreciated. Simple but powerful post!

I've missed you. I hope things are going well for you and hubby.
