This is a good day. I awoke this morning is perfect health to sunshine and mild weather. Today, I am going to work on creative things such as my book, or making more cards, or working on a larger art piece. I may go down and look at the lake :-)

Have you taken a moment to give thanks to your Higher Power today?

I thank God:
- for gospel music that speaks the language of my soul
- for lifting fear from my soul so that I can try something new
- for the food on my table
- for not abandoning me

I hope all of you take some time this weekend to rest and rejuvenate. Take a few moments to count ALL of your blessings. If you use your fingers and toes to count, I guarantee you will run out of digits. Every molecule in your body is doing its part as well as it can to make up all that is you. It is important to take care of every last one of them in some shape or fashion. Feed your mind positive thoughts and feed your body food that will help it nourish and replenish itself. Thoughts and food combine to make a beautiful grateful, forgiving, and giving soul.

"The point is not to take the world's opinion as a guiding star but to go one's way in life and working unerringly, neither depressed by failure nor seduced by applause." ~ Gustav Mahler
