Wow..it truly is up to us to live every day as if it is a gift and find a way to make it memorable.Do something nice for someone, eat  at your favorite place, watch and old/new movie..it doesn't take a lot.  One only has to focus on the positive.

When change does not delight Life is constantly changing We know it involves both pain and joy It's when the day lights up The awareness of the key which opens the hearts of others Be real instead of perfect I can not stop the wind, but I can teach myself to sail with The smell of flowering bushes and trees Meet the changes of life without worry One thing is for sure ... that nothing is certain The direction of life, what you want in your heart By the power you carry within you, the seeds of the future A starting point for new experiences 10.05.2018 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved * Poem of the Day 12.05.2018
