Hope you had a wonderful holiday. Wishing you a very good night and a great weekend.
I am trying to get back on track here, just having kinda a tough time doing it.
Have a great one.

May The World Hug You Today
May the world hug you today,
With its warmth, and love.
Pray it whispers a joyful tune
in your heart.
And may the wind carry a voice
that tells you there is a friend,
sitting in another corner of the world,
wishing you well!

Look for the Angels
There are angels in the Heavens,
There are angels on the ground.
There are angels all around you,
Just waiting to be found.
So when you are feeling lonely
Or just a little blue,
Open your eyes to see the angels,
They are there, waiting for you.
Don't forget about these angels
During all of your good times too,
For they like to share your happiness
And the joys that come to you.
They will wrap their wings around you,
To protect and guide you through
All the sad and tragic moments
That this life can throw at you.
They are sent to you from Heaven
From our Father up above,
So remember to look for the angels.
They'll show you all God's Love.

Friendship is a treasure,
To seek and guard and hold,
Too valuable to measure,
More dear as it grows old!
For no one can retrace it,
If it should go astray,
And nothing can replace it,
So be a friend today!
Friendly words are music,
Ringing through the air,
Friendly smiles are sunshine,
And welcome ev'rywhere!
Friendly deeds are jewels,
Their value who can say?
So find a friend,
And kindness lend,
Oh, be a friend today!
Friendship is a token
To cherish and to tend,
How easily it's broken!
How difficult to mend!
So do not hold it lightly,
Or treat it like a toy,
But keep it burning brightly,
This precious flame of joy!
Friendly words are music,
Ringing through the air,
Friendly smiles are sunshine,
And welcome ev'rywhere!
Friendly deeds are jewels,
Their value who can say?
So find a friend,
And kindness lend,
Oh, be a friend today!
Friendship is a duty,
So let's all do our part,
And share this gift of beauty,
Oh, share it from the heart!
So this is our endeavor,
In song, our pledge we tell:
To make a friend, and ever,
To be a friend as well.
Friendly words are music,
Ringing through the air,
Friendly smiles are sunshine,
And welcome ev'rywhere!
Friendly deeds are jewels,
Their value who can say?
So find a friend,
And kindness lend,
Oh, be a friend today!

Life is a journey,
a journey that takes us down many roads.
Some good and some not so good.
But as we travel we learn, grow, and meet
people that make those journeys all worth the travel.
Those kind of people in a way are like
Angels.
With them we find comfort in the arms of our
Angels.
Friends come and go,
and from each one we learn more about our selves.
We see our weakness are strengths
from the eyes of another.
But the ones that stay and imprint our hearts are the ones we keep close and
safe within,
like an Angel.
And there we find comfort in the arms of our
Angels.
So I write this message with love and thanks.
For you have touched my life,
watched me fall,
and you raised me up like an
Angel
sent from God.

Just to let you know I'm thinking of you.
GrammyJ
Friendship is the kind of love
that never can grow old.
Warm and cozy it will stay
when other things are cold.
Friendship is a love so true
it won't be denied,
Because a friend will always be
there close by your side.
Boyfriends and lovers come and go
in this game of life we play,
But a true friend, no matter what,
in your heart will always stay.
So hold these friends dear to you,
and never let them go.
Think how much they mean to you,
and make sure to tell them so.

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on.
Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let show
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road I'll share your load
If you just call me
So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on
Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
Lean on me...

People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies;
Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you;
Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating others could destroy overnight;
Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, will often be forgotten.
Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it may never be enough;
Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway.
-Mother Teresa

It is rewarding to find someone whom you like, but it is essential to like yourself.
It is quickening to recognize someone as a good and decent human being, but it is indispensable to view yourself as
acceptable.
It is a delight to discover people who are worthy of respect, admiration, and love, but it is vital to believe yourself deserving of these things.
For you cannot live in someone else. You cannot find yourself in someone else. You cannot be given a life by someone else. Of all the people you will
know in a lifetime, you are the only one you will never leave nor lose.
To the question of your life, you are the only answer. To the problems of your life, you are the only solution.

The gift pretty much says it all....
~Hugs~
I am at my best with the wind in my face,
When overcoming the challenge, with pace.
The pace that requires more effort, more strength.
But once gained momentum, endures with great length.
It's easy to sit back, placid and calm
Comfort is only a relative balm.
It seems an advantage, better than strife
But is dulled by stagnation, stifling life.
Progress needs movement, energy, drive,
No chance for improvement if you do not strive.
Nothing's for nothing: cause and effect.
That which you work for, you've more chance to get.
So give me the wind, let it blow in my face,
The more I confront, the more strength I'll embrace.
Steps are not mounted, nor challenge overcome.
Without certain courage or effort be done.

Life is opportunity!
Every day,
All seem it gray,
Can stimulate new thought.
Chance is not what rules the world
There's purpose everywhere,
It's just for us to recognize
The pearl that's waiting there.
The opportunity for us,
To learn and serve and grow.
The harder that the 'problem' seems
The higher we can go.
What is ours will come to us,
So fear becomes inept.
Just find the gift in everything
And we'll become adept.
but I do have a gift for you.
