Challenge

Today is another beautiful day in which to embrace all that the Lord has given us. As I sit at the computer and ponder, it occurs to me that too many people are so self-centered and wrapped-up in personal drama's that they tend to lose track of the important things in life. Things like Love, Laughter, Family, Friends and the really big one: Communication! Do you ever pause for a moment and wonder how someone from your past is doing? How long has it been since you contacted an old friend just to say hello and you're thinking of them today? When was the last time you did something nice for a stranger just because you wanted to commit a random act of kindness? When was the last time you told your best friend just how much they mean to you? The only thing that we are really in control of is our attitudes - how is yours? Happiness draws in happiness, love draws in love - positive attitude is what it is really all about (not the hokey pokey). I challenge each of you to Live, Laugh & Love often and to practice random acts of kindness every single day. Kind words and a big smile when given to others comes back to you in amazing ways!!! Until next time.... Keep dreaming.

Thoughts for today...

Here goes my very first real blog...

I am a single lady who is starting new chapters in my life. I have been spending lots of time exploring my new home state of Montana. I transplanted here from Muskogee Oklahoma in April 2010. The more I experience the more I find to love. I have also recently begun a new and very exciting hobby of "Nature Photography" - they say a picture is worth a thousand words. I guess I am lucky enough to capture volumes then. Being a hopeless romantic I find such pleasure in nature. The Lord has given us so many beautiful sights to enjoy if only we can slow down our busy lives to fully appreciate them and give thanks for His amazing creations. I try to spend time each day to enjoy something new outside. It is so amazing what one can see if they just look around! From the very moment I drove into this valley surrounded by such beauty, I have fallen under the spell of Kalispell. There are not adequate words to describe the emotional waves as I face each direction taking it all in.

I will be posting new blogs with pictures each week for all to enjoy. I look forward to reading your comments. I will see you again soon. God Bless...
