Rest Time

I smile when I think of how my children used to think thirty was old . . . wonder how they feel about it today.  The memory starts to play tricks as we age and sometimes we find ourselves in a revolving door when we do not remember where we put a particular item, but a sure cure is to go back out the door and voila your memory kicks back in . . .sneaky little devil trying to make you old before your time. . . just wait awhile it gets to be real funny like finding your glasses on your head after searching all over the house for them.
Best description of worrying I've read in some time.....a truth, as we sometimes borrow trouble.   So today make up your mind to create images that bring out the best in you
Scandals in the headlines;   closed doors and broken promises. a master of deception.  Empty promises and a sad plan for our country.    Let us all hope and pray that there is a definite end to all this pussy footing around and we get back to being the best, the kindest, and strongest America ever . . .  for so many have died to keep America alive and strong.  Think about that.

Well today is Friday and I can tell you are not unhappy about that.   Friday is a meaningful ending of a week of struggle to exist for many.   Weekends are time for relaxation and some folks have no idea what that means.    They continue on working as if there was no tomorrow and wonder why their health is not as it should be.     It takes a full commitment to become healthy, wealthy and wise. . . and, most of us work on it for a bit then fall back and wonder why we have not accomplished what we set out to do.   So today make a pact with yourself and set a goal to make you the best you can be.   Start with your diet and eat healthy;  go for a long walk at a leisurely pace and look up and down and all around and give your mind a rest.    Think of something you can do for another, something surprising and delightful that will give you all pleasure.   It doesn't have to be much more than a smile and a hug; or sharing a cup of coffee or tea, or even lemonade if the weather is warm enough.   Weekends are just for that with just a tiny bit of your seconds put aside to finish up a small project or cleaning job.    You deserve a rest time so take it and quit making excuses for not making a list and checking it twice giving you the respite you need and want.    Weekends are for rest, relaxation and fun . . oh well, if you have to rake or plant or mow, do it to a fast tune and get on with your rest and relaxation.     Hugs to all.
