CHAPTER 7, PAGE 2

(there has been a lovely full moon out there the past 3 days)

 

THINGS TO FORGET - THINGS TO REMEMBER

Forget each kindness that you do,

As soon as you have done it.

Forget the praise that falls to you,

The moment you have won it.

Forget the slander that you hear,

Before you can repeat it.

Forget each slight, each spite, each sneer,

Whenever you may meet it.

Forget each worry and distress,

Be hopeful and forgiving.

Remember every promise made,

And keep it to the letter.

Remember those who lend you aid,

And be a grateful debtor.

Remember all the happiness

That comes your way in living.

Remember good, remember truth,

Remember heaven is above you.

And you will find, through age and youth,

That many will come to love you.

GOOD MORNING !

Here we are -- another Monday morning and it’s a brand new month too. June went by in a blur and now I’m hoping for the ‘lazy hazy’ days of summer.

I will definitely be visiting a beach somewhere. Last summer I made it to our nearby beach on Lake Erie briefly for one afternoon. This summer I hope there will be more opportunities to do just that. I need to feel the warm sand between my toes and the cool lake breezes blowing on my face.

We are blessed by having the beach so near to us. Northern Ohio is a beautiful part of the country and it’s only when the cold of winter sets in that I wish I lived somewhere else.

I found this web site that list lots and lots of activities going on around Ohio. http://www.ohiotraveler.com/#dinos

Sometimes we think we need to travel far in order to enjoy our vacations and days off, but we have plenty to see and do right here. Now all I need is the time to do it.

For today however, I’ll be going into work and I will be trying to whittle down all those piles on my desk.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY

Ordinary riches can be stolen, real riches cannot.

Oscar Wilde

May your day be blessed with a few SMILES and lots of SUNSHINE to warm your heart !
