I won't be participating in that meme today,
but I offer this ... just because
This week as I've attempted to remain calm & centered in the face of daily stress resulting from 'financial chaos' and 'political mud-slinging' ... I've rediscovered that taking time daily to write down my 'fears' (blessing them and letting them go as best I can) and surrounding myself with positive thoughts to keep my mind directed toward 'possibilities' ... makes a huge difference. I'm grateful for those who have shared their wisdom, and today I share a few of those ideas with all those who pass this way ... just because.

"Most people give up just when they're about to achieve success. They quit on the one-yard line. They give up at the last minute of the game, one foot from a winning touchdown." Ross Perot

I alwasy find comfort in your beautiful thoughts and photos. Thanks!
Thank you for sharing those comforting thoughts. I like your idea of writing down your fears, etc. and then turning them over to the Lord so you can forget about them the best you can. That's a good idea and one I need to try.
I will definitely try this. The quote is something I will keep with me in my office at school. So much yelling goes on in that place. Why not get to the same place with kindness?
And I will follow your lead and write down my fears lest they overcome me. Thank you for being a great teacher to me. God bless.
My husband has been in utter turmoil over what's going on with our country, and I haven't been too happy either, so it takes a lotta work to remain calm. Rah for you. :)
that's a lovely photo. :O all those birds.
Beautiful, calming photo...and the quote is so wise. It is important to keep to the calm side, isn't it; even when things seem overwhelmingly the opposite. As the poet wrote: all will be well....
What a beautiful post. You have left me with warm thoughts and I thank you!
