A little story to start your day !
Long ago in a small, far away village, there was place known as the House of 1000 Mirrors. A small, happy little dog learned of this place and decided to visit. When he arrived, he bounced happily up the stairs to the doorway of the house. He looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his great surprise, he found himself staring at 1000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as his. He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1000 great smiles just as warm and friendly. As he left the House, he thought to himself, "This is a wonderful place. I will come back and visit it often."
In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as the first one, decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door. When he saw the 1000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled at them and was horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left, he thought to himself, "That is a horrible place, and I will never go back there again."
All the faces in the world are mirrors. What kind of reflections do you see in the faces of the people you meet? What reflection do others see when they look at you?

GOOD MORNING !
I'm hopeful this morning that our dear Lord calms the storm headed toward the coast of Louisianna, Mississippi and Alabama this morning. The weather channel says it's category 5 - bout as bad as it can get. They are showing lots of pictures of the evacuation of those heading out of town...as you know, I have somechildren down south and I'm praying for them and all those in peril this morning.
Sunday is the day to bless our spirits once more...so I'm off to church to get refeshed and renewed for the new week. I hope you all are able to do that too!
Lots of prayers today !
Take good care all !
***BIG SMILE***
Be Blessed!

Oh, that reflection is fantastic. I will remember it as I encounter others throughout the day today, and everyday.

Love the story I really do. sometimes life is what we make it. Like making lemon aid out of lemons.
Will be watching your journal for word on your family. God bless them and be with them.
