Our daughter-in-law, a wise woman for her young age, shared this with me today. In light of some of our recent discussions, especially the political ones, I thought I’d share:

I used Noxzema from the time I was old enough to wash my own face, all through school and into adulthood. Then I decided it wasn't 'sophisticated' enough and went with higher priced, higher end products. About 5 years ago, I went back to

If your going to be financially secure enough to venture out and see whats available in the B & B field...take your time and check it out. If you have to jump into a job..just to have one..you will not be happy. Hope you get the time to find wh
I’ve read this before and it just as powerful and relevant now as when I first read it. God bless you for sharing.
What! Well, I never.
Good one Olga and thanks for sharing. I should paste this one to my mirror.
A GOOD BELLY LAUGH….MY DH AND I GOT A GREAT CHUCKLE( thought I ‘d do it in caps….I yelling it out funny!!!!)
Very good poem. Makes me check myself. Thanks.
For some reason I have felt “heaven” was full of it, As the Sun shines on the just and the unjust,
I believe “God ” has a sense of humor , we should look at creation more closely…Funny.
I don’t know what you mean by your first comment. Please explain. Yes I think the way some situations in people’s lifes play out could be viewed as God having a sense of humor. When you say creation are you talking about natural laws?
Creation as an artist I study many “things” have you looked at the face of a butterfly? Why are there roaches? I pray for forgivenes if all life is worthy for I have sinned I donot allow them in and if one gets in he is dead or all hell breaks out( lol) literally, furniture is moved and I am on the hunt!!
I once was so glad to move from our first home because outside slugs were terrible and on a few occasion they would leave signs that they had been inside,
SO we bought our first beautiful brick home , the first week I had to meet a slug, and a garden snake thathad came up the drainage pipe, my son who was only about 5 said calmly he liked snakes, “mom there is a snake in the sink” As i saw the snake , I began to scream turn on the hot water and and the incinerators… the first thing came to my mind
” I moved from my little house to THIS!!!!” never saw another slug or snake….just a wake up call,
No I’ve never looked at the face of a butterfly. But I have wondered if they have faces or if they think. And what must they be thinking when as a worm they get trapped in a cocoon. Do they know they will emerge as something beautiful? It’s fun to let the mind wander.
Isn’t ths creation amazing
Whenever in doubt about God’s sense of humor I just look at my Knees!:o)
Thanks for sharing.
So TRUE!! Sweet
