Red face

My cats .... they love me without reserve - they think I'm beautiful
and the only criticism is when I don't offer the correct treats.

Same here Wren. My cat keeps me grounded especially when she poops outside the box!

I have been thinking on this very subject now for a while. Last week joy bubbled out of my heart "just because" no particular reason.....I realized in that moment that I can just "be happy" and I also realized that I hadn't been, or felt joy in quite a while. I managed to hang onto it for a while. Then I fell into the pit again because of the memories and pain of losing a child when he was seven in a very nasty situation. I really let that and some other very trying situations bring me down. I loved and love this child with all my heart. And I fear he will never know it. But, I am getting off the subject. Truly, real joy and sorrow spring from our hearts.

I think the greatest gift we can truly have is peace. To have a sense of peace whether we are joyful or sorrowful, that is my goal. I know it is within us and is possible. There are times when I can manage it, other times I fall.

So, that being said, my friends, family, and God make me happy, oh, and my dog when I can be around her.

Default For Mistiis

Try to remember to say "I'M WORTH IT" when you seek your moments of happiness. You ARE you know! Love, Barbo

Hmm.

MONEY!

Let's see. Same as Ducky, rain and clouds on a fall day. I love rain, most especially when I have no plans outside, which is rarely anyway.

Boy, this is a hard question.

When I feel a connection to the sky, the trees, the feel of the wind on my face and the thought of being in an isolated place connecting with just those things.

The ocean.

And...what it felt like to go to the top of that lighthouse with Dale holding my hand for support (I was scared) and making it to the top and outside. Standing there in the wind looking out over the Atlantic. I felt so at home and at peace.
