The sun sets on another day...

Today as i listened in to a group I heard one person suddenly say "just deal with it". It made me smile as I considered how many times we should say that not only to each other, but to ourselves. Sometimes as we walk though life there are just situations that people need to deal with, and sometimes that is true for us as well. We just need to deal with it, not change it, not scream about it, yell about it, ignore it or any other items, we just need to deal with it.

So as the sun sets on another day, remember that one of our potential choices should be dealing with it, and not overthinking or anything else. Disagree with me? Deal with it. lol

Sleep sweet, love life, and enjoy tonight, for tomorrow is another day...

The sun sets on another day...

The sunset is magnificent as we pass from the edge of day to the edge of night. It is amazing to consider just how beautiful color can be.

Instead of ranting and raving tonight, lets just take a moment, enjoy the sunset together and be happy. Life is good, so are you. (I will make up on the ranting and raving tomorrow)

Sleep sweet, love life, and enjoy every moment you can...

The sun sets on another day...

As I looked at the sunset this eve and saw it blossom out of a near impossible shroud of darkness from rain clouds, I was amused how sometimes the little things in life can have such a big effect on us all. It is impossible to consider all the pivot points in life that make us who we are, the doctor who saw someone sick is an easy guess, but the mechanic who dropped his favorite matchbox and saw it break may not be as evident. 

As I have said many times and truly believe, we are the product of the sum of all that we have experienced, and this fits all the time but sometimes it is something mundane that we did not even remember that gives us a certain phrase, mannerism, or other approach to life that may well otherwise be lost on everyone.

So it may make you laugh when you realize that "sleep sweet" for me comes from a  truly corny love story called "George of the Jungle" and I was always enamored with George and his passion for Ursula and his consistent thoughtful statement "Sleep sweet Ursula".

So as the sun sets on another day, consider those fun things you do and take a moment to think about where they came from and laugh for a moment with me, laughing is always worth it.

Sleep sweet, love life, and wish upon a star, someone else will be too....

The suns sets on another day...

Today the wind blows wild. If you sit and listen to the wind you will hear its song as it passes through the trees and of course the occasional wind chime. Hopefully you will smile as you hear the battle between the power of the wind and the strength of the tree, the gentle crack of a limb as it stretches and contracts. Close your eyes and feel the breeze wash over you, and as it does, feel the gentle power, and not so gentle power it controls. Then feel the sun warm you and help you feel as though the world were new. The chimes will ground you always as they are man's gift to the wind.

Sounds fun huh?

Perhaps sometimes we need to think of the trials of life as fast blowing wind. The strength of them blowing to you, but the safety you can feel if you just listen and pay attention. There really is not anything we cannot weather if we have friends and pay attention.

So as the sun sets on another day, consider the wind and the power it holds in your life, and let it pass by you, knowing your friends have deep roots like the trees of the forest. (sentimental today)

Sleep sweet, love life, and listening to the chimes...
