LIFE IS GOOD

Hello!!!

Ever have those MELT DOWN kind of days???  When...even though you KNOW you have so much 

to be grateful and thankful for...you just go and MELT DOWN???  Faith...Hope...Love....Family & 

Friends.... yet...there you go.... lol....  I do... every now and then...like this last weekend...

What picks you back up???  A good cry?  A verse or prayer?  A good night's sleep??  Music??

A shoulder to cry on??  A special friend who understands....even when you yourself DON'T??

 For me... I guess it's sorta ... all of the above!!!  ;)  Thank goodness for loving friends...and FAITH 

to pull you through...and REMIND you in the end...LIFE IS GOOD!!!


BOY CAN I BE GUILTY OF THIS!!!      


Why is it that when we NEED a friend...we instead try to deal with things on our own???

Thank goodness...that FRIENDS are THERE for us!!  Maybe it's just an email, or a call...

someone to say..."HEY, You'll get through this...It's Okay"   Maybe it's that time alone, when you 

realize...You're Never ALONE...You have a Friend and Saviour who will NEVER let you down!!!


What....someone said it was going to be  easy???  ALL THE TIME?????  No.... no one said that!!!

Yet...sometimes...that's what we think.  It should be EASY..  Sometimes...there are just those days...

when nothing seems to go right... when you 'forget'...how truly BLESSED you are...  Maybe that's 

what those melt down days are all about.... some time to 'take you down' and REMIND you just how

much you have to be Grateful for ;)






So...what to do???? CHANGE YOUR FOCUS!!!  Instead of focusing on your sorrow, your pain, your 

heartache...FOCUS ON BEING A BLESSING!!!  Guess what...your whole outlook CHANGES!!!

The POSITIVE comes back into focus...the NEGATIVE drifts away...and you become ENERGIZED 

once again.  





How true is that!!!  Be STRONG!!! Stay STRONG!!!  Doesn't mean...that once in a while you 

aren't going to have a less than perfect day!!  But you don't give up!  





Whatever you may be going through...work your way through it.  Pray...even when you cannot find 

the words to say...your heart will cry out...and God will hear your prayers.  It's just that simple!

Does that mean you'll have the answers???  the answer you want???  Not necessarily!   However...

you WILL find comfort...a peace...that assurance that you are not alone...and that everything will 

be all right.  <3  





One thing for sure...I'm grateful for those friends who have come into my life...some have moved on.

Some...have stayed...but ALL have shaped my life in some way.  Those TRUE Friends.... who 

are there for you...who make you smile...who understand and don't pass judgement...you know the

ones who GIVE and allow YOU to GIVE BACK...  Well...they are Flowers in the Garden of Life!!!

And I gotta say..... I LOVE MY FRIENDS!!!  

Well...enough of my ramblings for today  :)  Time to hit the shower and get on my way to work.

Hope you ALL have a great day!!   Share a smile with someone!!!  You never know who might need 

you to Be a Blessing to them today!




~Peace.....
