“Promise Yourself

~To be so strong that nothing

can disturb your peace of mind.

~To look at the sunny side of everything

and make your optimism come true.

~To think only the best, to work only for the best,

and to expect only the best.

~To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others

as you are about your own.

~To forget the mistakes of the past

and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

~To wear a cheerful countenance at all times

and give every living creature you meet a smile.

~To give so much time to the improvement of yourself

that you have no time to criticize others.

~To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear,

and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

~To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world,

not in loud words but great deeds.

~To live in faith that the whole world is on your side

so long as you are true to the best that is in you.”

~ Christian D. Larson~

Have a Good Night and lovely dreams.

Sleep tight.

We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about

what you think.  Words are secondary.  Thoughts live; they travel far.

Somewhere we know that without silence words lose their meaning,

 

that without listening speaking no longer heals,

 

that without distance closeness cannot cure

WE DO NOT REALIZE HOW IT WOULD FEEL TO BE UNABLE TO HEAR THE SMALLEST SOUND OR JUST HOW MUCH WE WOULD BE IMPACTED THROUGHOUT OUR DAY....

 

MOST OF US TAKE HEARING FOR GRANTED.

 

I WAS VERY MOVED BY THIS.

 

DEAF MAN TOLD TO LOOK OVER THERE.

THIS IS A PART OF TECHNOLOGY THAT I LOVE :thumbsup:

Now for something completely different, here's a photo taken from a website called engrish.com, where people post images of mind-boggling, crazy or silly items that they've seen on their travels. This pair of child's pajamas was spotted in Thailand:

Okay, those two photos hopefully got you guys to giggle a bit. There's plenty more where that came from on the engrish.com website, if you need a fiix of fun. I find that it can make me smile even if I'm having a really rough day.

 

Hope you're all doing well today!

 

Now back to regular programming....

I really just have to share this one as well. I kind of think of this one as an exercise in mindfulness, since I know many people have "cog fog" and just feel like they're not concentrating well. If that's the case, then you need to have very clear instructions when doing daily tasks, like, for instance, the laundry. This particular laundry label is very helpful, don't you think?

Hah!

 

Wouldn't it be great if we had such useful instructions for the rest of our daily activities?!

I'm sure it's been shared before but yesterday I remembered one of my favorite quotes by Lewis Caroll:

 

"Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast."

 

Have always adored it! I'm going to start doing this more! One of the impossible things I'll try and believe is that I will heal completely from withdrawal.

Very good! Like it a lot! It's especially good for those of us who eat breakfast early. It gives us time to believe more impossible things during the rest of the day!  ;)
