Life is good.....

    I headed to the back porch swing with a piece of persimmon pudding in hand and Bristol followed me out. As we set down you could just see the top of the sun as it slid behind the trees. The sky looked like you had taken a paint brush and made a few swipes across the sky. Different shades of orange and yellow against the clouds and what was left of the blue sky.  I told Bristol, "look at your surroundings Bristol, what more could a person want". He must have agreed with me cause he turned around and gave me a big lick. He must have been feeling the same. The quietness of the evening, the sun setting, the field's of soybeans that had been harvested the day before made you aware of all your blessings. It's times like these that are far better than any meditation book.
   Life is good....life is getting back to normal. My list of blessing's are long, Thomas, Sarah, Sandra, Daddy and Mom. My circle of friends and my BFF's who have lifted me up with their thoughts and prayers. My home and my puppies (kids). Everyday we should take a few minutes and remember all those who have been a blessing to us. As you set in your quiet place reflect back on your day and those who have crossed your path. Look around at the sky, the trees and even the grass. Each is a blessing for us to enjoy.
   It's suppose to be a beautiful fall weekend. Get up from your couch and get outside and enjoy the blessings.
