CHAPTER 6, PAGE 21

How about SUMMER Resolutions?

(After 6 months of not keeping the new year's ones)

Give up complaining . . . focus on gratitude.

Give up pessimism . . . become an optimist.

Give up harsh judgments . . . think kind thoughts.

Give up worry . . . trust divine providence.

Give up discouragement . . . be full of hope.

Give up bitterness . . . turn to forgiveness.

Give up hatred . . . return good for evil.

Give up negativism . . . be positive.

Give up anger . . . practice patience.

Give up pettiness . . . put on maturity.

Give up gloom. . . enjoy the beauty that is all around you.

Give up jealousy . . . pray for trust.

Give up gossiping . . . control your tongue.

Give up sin. . . . turn to virtue.

GOOD MORNING !

It’s over the hump day and it’s SUMMER!

I know I haven’t done well at all on my New Years’ resolutions. I think I’ve regressed , not progressed. Maybe now is a good time for a little reminder of what I wanted to do.

The year isn’t over yet!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY

Summer is a promissory note signed in June, its long days spent and gone before you know it, and due to be repaid next January

 Hal Borland

May your day be blessed with a few smiles and lots of sunshine to warm your heart.
