The best timing to take action is when you notice it. When you take note of something, it is a signal from God that you should take care of it right away.
Have a good day everyone.

Compromise and hesitation tend to make things more complicated
Flexibly adapt to changes
When you find yourself overwhelmed, stop what you are doing, take a step back, and breathe!

Today and everyday – Believe in yourSelf.
When you look in a mirror.. take a good look at the “person” looking back at you. A few times now I’ve not really recognized the woman who gives me a startled look, when I glance her in passing by the bathroom mirror that I can’t ignore.
From a closet size bathroom (in my previous home) to the ballroom size one I have now… it has been an adjustment. I think that in the past, I seldom if ever really looked at or in a mirror unless I wanted to check something…ie. my hair before leaving the house…. even then, it has not been a priority.
My sister and I have had belly laugh chuckles.. because we’ve ( I won’t say which of us) has arrived at a choir practice to have a choir mate quietly give us a whisper… )
Yesterday I woke to a sound of continuous knocking on my door, I was horrified to find out that it was after nine, I am usually up and out of the door by 7:00-7:30 ………. do you know what I did? Something I’ve never done ..ever. I answered the door and promptly went back to bed. AND … I gave myself permission to stay in and not go out at all .. all day!!!! in fact, except to get up to eat and check my messages.. I spent most of the day.. “in bed”. Dearest friends .. that was a first…. not because I didn’t feel well, or ached anywhere, no.. I simply wanted to sleep.. so I did. Wow.. is this a sign of “maturity”…
Can it be true.. I actually had a day of doing “nothing” except what I felt like doing…….Wow.. double wowzoooooh earth shattering isn’t it.

Use dissatisfaction and complaints as a springboard to improvement
If you only complain about something, nothing will get better. Look for shortcomings in your thinking and come up with creative solutions to your problems.

Finding gratitude – connect to the moment. Give voice to your needs, soak in life’s little gifts… we live in a society that obsesses over physical appearance and fitness… it is essential to confront the self critic that lives within us all.

True friendships are forever – treasure time spent with a friend, we never know what is around the corner. Life is an adventure.

My cats watching television. I wonder at times what they are thinking as they watch the birds, squirrels, bunnies and other wild critters go about their business of searching for food on the telly . They sit at the patio doors and look out to the courtyard as well. I took a page from their lives yesterday, and took a day off. I let the world go by, and you know what. it survived without me, and I got along just fine.
