One big thing I am thankful for is the ability to laugh. At times I have felt so sad that I doubt I will ever laugh again but, amazingly, it always comes back.

It’s important to make someone happy and it’s best if you start with yourself. Clean out the unhappiness, find something to smile about, and then share that smile with others.

Thank You Lord for the quiet times in the morning when we meet together. Sometimes it feels like we just sit quietly together and I lean into You. It is enough to give me courage for the day.

Thank You Lord for the beautiful colours of Fall. Many times the beauty You create has been copied in photographs and paintings but the original is unsurpassed.

I used to boast about the good deals I could get in business but the emotions I went through to get there were frustration, anger, stress, fear, etc. Anyone who has tried to buy a vehicle can understand those emotions. However, I no longer pride myself on getting the best deal financially but focus on smiles, good-will, charity both on my part and with the one I am dealing with. It is never a good deal when only one party thinks it is.
