Morning Thoughts

A new morning began with sorted thoughts, trying to understand So many things happening here and across our precious land I grab a coffee with hopes that some things are just a dream But, then I wake up with the sun and it is not as it would seem So I hold onto the simple things I like, as tightly as I can I carry on with gratitude, to get through the things I can’t stand I seek all the beauty in this granted creation I can find It is the way to find inner peace and to settle the mind I know what time brings, what this new day has to offer to me It is all a matter of what I choose to see Heidi Sands 11/4/19

Hello Heidi … it is so hard to keep being positive when we get bombarded with news of tragedies, but your verse gives a ray of hope that the mind can choose your course if it has a choice - thank you Heidi - Lindsay

Yes Lindsay, we certainly are bombarded with 'bad' news. We must make the choice to find the good and give the good. Thank you for your kind comments and support :)

Attitude is a choice every day, which is why we need to concentrate on the best things.
