I have a friend who says this quite often! I’m reminded to be thankful for everything when reminded to “shine”! Today, as you go about your business, don’t just “barge” into the day without thinking thankfulness. And, when you’re tempted to whine, take a good look around…..blessings surround you. Your heart beating and your lungs taking in breath are blessings….begin there, if you have to! At that point, you’ll find numerous things to be thankful for….and just a little reminder….I’m thankful for you, my friend. “Shine on!”

Well, this is a brisk Tuesday morning in January, and I’m feeling what my little character, “Henry”, must be feeling while resting in the cold, dark, damp ground.
If you’re not familiar with “Henry”….just Google henrythetulipbulb.com. He was very uncomfortable in his new surroundings…..for awhile, anyway.
You see, Henry was very comfortable living on a safe grocery store shelf. His life was turned upside down when two little girls bought him and “trounced” him into his new surroundings.
Today is full of surprises! Regardless of what your day brings, count your blessings, live in greatness, love your family and friends and pray for our nation!
You’ll become a better person and, like Henry, you’ll discover the wonderful You! Blessings! Linda

Well, we now have a new head of the country. Regardless of your politics, my friend, God calls us to pray for our leaders. Today, as you count your blessings, thank your Almighty for this beautiful country and pray for our leaders, teachers and those in authority. As a friend of mine’s song says, “When the praise goes up, His blessings come down.” Be blessed today and stay warm!

I have family all over the country and they are all saying the same thing!! It has been mighty cold! I made some hot chicken soup the other day (yes, from scratch!) and what a treat to warm up with a bowl of nutritious, steamy soup! I think that a big pot of soup being stirred on the stove makes the house smell wonderful and is soooo tasty! Perhaps you’ll want to make some yourself. And, don’t forget to be thankful for it! M-M-M “Bon Appetit!”

So…how’s your year going???? Are you remembering to start your day with Thankfulness? While taking those stretches in the morning, stretch your heart and mind…..put a dose of thankfulness there. You’ll see a spring in your step and a twinkle in your eye when you begin your day in that fashion. And, you’ll look better, too! Who can resist a warm smile and a happy face? Be Blessed Today! (And, don’t forget to tell your family and friends that you love them!) :O)

Ah yes, a New Year….a Year of Hope! We heard alot of talk last year of Changes. Change comes within, my friend. Change your thoughts, you change your world. Abundance comes when you realize within yourself that happiness comes from the inside of You! It is then that you can truly relish the happiness of another person. And, guess what? You get blessed all over again. It’s a Win-Win. So, as you begin 2009, remember this…if you want love, give love, if you need money, give money, if you need time, give time, etc., etc.. I see that smile on your face. You get it!!! Ah, yes and Be blessed, Linda
