SPREADING HAPPINESS
Sharing is form of kindness, spreads Happiness.
People, usually surprised to receive.
Readily appreciate, happy, and to be truthful,
Even more appreciated when we are the recipient!
Always reminds us there is so much more, we certainly should
Do, can imitate the givers kindness. We can
Imitate their unselfishness. Experience truth of, “more happiness in giving.”
Never, under estimate happiness of just being greeted with a,
"Good morning and how are you?" Wow! Made them … smile.
Happiness comes from outside circumstances, people, stuff, etc.
And as said, gives unexpected Happiness.
Personally I value Joy, and I
Prefer it over Happiness. Joy springs from
Inside me! Independent on any outside influences, nice or not.
No one, nothing can rob me of my Joy, only me.
Easy to get caught up in daily survival, but Dear friend,
Someone’ somewhere is lonely, grieving, remember how that feels?
Send someone a card, text, or call. Make someone happy … and God smile.
The son of God in human flesh
Jesus Christ incarnate was He
came here with one purpose in mind
to save mankind and set them free
This He accomplished on Calvary's tree
there Jesus the Godman was crucified
paying the price for our sins
taking our place for us He died
Ponder afresh at this unselfishness
the eternal God in mankind's place
shedding His blood in full atonement
displaying God's magnificent grace
Now look at His wounds
is your name written there?
has Jesus blood covered your sin?
by faith believing can you dare?
Oh to see my name written in His wounds
such an honour is given to those that believe
who can confess that they've been ransomed
from eternal death never again to grieve
AUTHOR NOTES: When listening to Stuart Townend's marvellous worship song 'The power of the cross', these thoughts came to me thinking on God's great love in giving His son for our sins.

In this fast paced world of ours
I still enjoy lifes simple pleasures
It’s the uncomplicated joys
That I truly value and treasure
I treasure the joy of nature
Simplistic, raw, complete
The joy of family and friends
Loves connections pure and sweet
I treasure the joy of a beloved pet
A four legged member of the family
The unconditional love they possess
Has no end in it’s entirety
I treasure the joy of home
Shelter safe and secure
Precious blessings and comforts inside
Where happiness is assured
I treasure the joy of freedom
Fortunate to safely roam
In a country that I love
A country I call home
I treasure human Kindness
One of give and share
Of unselfishness and acceptance
Mankind simply being aware
No desire for material riches
Or the need to be entertained
I treasure lives special moments
Where lasting memories remain
I treasure affection and humour
Laughter is a true pleasure
In this fast paced world of ours
I’m so blessed with glorious treasures!
At conception, the point of his earthly beginning inside his mother's womb, there was a light, the likes of which he had not seen until now at the point of his death. He shared with me that he had lived 85 years on earth until his demise two months ago. As he thought upon the light, he remembered that the light was not as bright as the light at his conception. That is to say, he believes when he really dies, there will be an identical light like the one he saw when he was being conceived.
I was privileged to listen and record his most remarkable story of how he died, went to heaven, and returned to tell his story. His sojourn there was a total of some 60 seconds. But if a thousand years is one day*, we are talking a heavenly timeframe of far more than 60 seconds. A brief estimate and some calculations explain why he tells me that he was in heaven long enough to visit a number of deceased loved ones, friends, and Biblical characters. For example, he met the young boy who provided the bread and fish Jesus used to feed 5,000 people. He had always been overwhelmed with the unselfishness displayed by the young lad and his willingness to be a tool for Christ in the performance of one of the world's greatest miracles. The lad never sought recognition.
He told me about a grandfather from four generations back whose name his family was never able to produce. He had suspected it to be a Bible name because his great grandfather's name was Daniel. He was right because he met him in heaven, and his name was Jeremiah. He was so happy as he told me about the family members he met. There were so many people to meet and so much beauty surrounding the entire scenery. He wanted to stay, but the angel informed him that God simply wanted to give him a taste of his future. For now, it was not his time, because his earthly mission and purpose were not completed.
So now, at 85, he's anticipating that exit light which will be there in all its splendor at his demise, he is content to live until his mission is completed.

Not everyone has houses or lands, gold or silver, stocks or bonds, IRA’S or CD’S, Cars or cash, insurance policies, etc. But that does not mean we have nothing to leave behind when we depart this earth. The best things in life are still free, and there can be great qualities in our lives that are well worth the leaving. So why not make a ‘None-Material Possession Will’, and describe from A to Z what you wish to leave behind. i.e.,
TO AL, I LEAVE MY GOOD ATTITUDE
TO BETH, I LEAVE MY INNER BEAUTY
TO CAL, I LEAVE MY COURTEOUSNESS
TO DON, I LEAVE MY DECISIVENESS
TO EARL, I LEAVE MY ENERGY
TO FRANK, I LEAVE MY FAITHFULNESS
TO GWEN, I LEAVE MY GOODNESS
TO HARRY, I LEAVE MY HONESTY
TO IVAN, I LEAVE MY INTELLIGENCE
TO JAN, I LEAVE MY JOY
TO KEN, I LEAVE MY KINDNESS
TO LORI, I LEAVE MY LOVE
TO MARY, I LEAVE MY MERRINESS
TO NANCY, I LEAVE MY NICENESS
TO OLIVER, I LEAVE MY OBEDIENCE
TO PAM, I LEAVE MY PLEASANTNESS

sometimes in the midst of life
i can sometimes be so lost in myself
i lose sight of such a beautiful treasure
while sleeping one day, God woke me up
He told me to take my blinders off and forget MY normalcy
choosing unselfishness, i ask about her children
choosing thoughtfulness, i ask about what else brings her joy
choosing to refocus, i ask about her other favorite things
choosing the inner enjoyment of it all, i just listen to the resulting anecdotes
learning from the overall conclusion, i Thank God for Intervening
the tears slowly flow when i realize that i never really knew my New Friend
consoling me, she begins to ask me the same questions
it is when i saw her tears flowing that i discover that i was not alone
our apologies are expressed by our newfound openness
our acceptance of each others' apologies comes when we ultimately forgive ourselves
the dust is now settled
all the smoke has been cleared
all eyes are now clear and dry
forgiveness has now bee officially confirmed
it is time to finally try the butterscotch sundaes, the white chocolate chip cookies, and the vanilla almond milk
Nationalities, cultures, customs
All peoples of our planet Earth
Liberals, Conservatives, Independents
This is my take for what it's worth
Tolerance, sensitivity, understanding
Of other ideas and concepts
Tenderness, kindness, gentleness
Such admirable qualities to be kept
Passionate, Patient, Peacefulness
All belong to nature's creed
Generous, honourable, unselfishness
A hand up to someone in need
Farsightedness, courtesy, flexibility
The die is cast when we're born
Innovator, inventor, pioneer
A leader so passionate so warm
Excellent characteristics these virtues
We seek them all of our lives
A balance derived from honour
The pinnacle for which we strive
“In Kindness we should be selflessness compassionate with sympathy
While understanding benevolences benignity friendliness in hospitality.
Amiability with public-spiritedness generosity with quality of being friendly,
Being generous considerate Always! In thanks giving being thankful for them
Those with kindness and in do we should support
So in kindliness goodwill affectionateness gentleness
Tenderness concerns care gentleness for our fellow man, unselfishness selflessness altruism compassion sympathy understanding big-heartedness courteousness in public-spiritedness
humaneness mercifulness decency love bounteousness as indulgence genuine patience
tolerance graciousness God is so lenience amidst His Jesus character humaneness
Mercifulness graces decency should be us selflessness compassionate with sympathy”
tolerance are those
that persistent their love for
humanity kinds

Hermine
Her heart filled with love, courageous and strong, America bound, her homeland long gone
Every beat of her heart was for someone she loved, selflessly giving from daybreak until dawn
Remembering the past keeps her life in full view, glimpses of Germany to the grandchild smile
Married a lifetime, committed she stands, her family branches out across this great land
I look up to my mother for her strength and courage, her gentleness and unselfishness, her loyalty and commitment.
Not once did she ever stop loving family, her love was always unconditionally.
Every time I look in the mirror I see her image and a smile comes across my face.
Love seems to be loved most of all
it's a subject that's always number one
people turn to it so very easily
one's affections capture it bar none
There seems to be a bias always
when one mentions it's meaning
ladies especially love all it's tones
brightens their faces to be gleaning
The song says 'we all need love'
it makes the world go around
jewellers would be poorer without it
without it more trees would be found
But there's a lack of real true love
one that would show unselfishness
putting the other first before self
brings true samaritan full of goodness
So show love in it's deepest meaning
display it high and with capital L
be really biased round your bend
making others wish to ring your bell!
