"Bringing the Sunshine In..."

 Kindred Thoughts That Paved the Way @ Heart

 "Our worth comes not from the amount of our involvements, achievements, or possessions, but from the depth and care which we bring to each moment, place, and person in our lives." ~ Richard A. Bower

 "Joy comes not through possession or ownership but through a wise and loving heart..."

"Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your sunshine ..."~Anthony D. Angelo





   
         Jolly's birthday...It's a marvelous time to get together with family & friends. Kind of chilly to be out tonight but my sister-in-law's cooking and cheerful hospitality is worth coming out even with the common cold.

"This Is The Promise"



The first time I heard this song, its lyrics just connected with me in a deeper level...
Since then,
its message stayed with me.
We all have ghosts, demons and pride; elusive dreams and the taunting uncertainty of tomorrow that we fight everyday. But I believe in faith that the Holy Spirit living in us will get us through every chain, bondage and every tear of pain & grief...Nothing compares to the love of God for you & me.
Just believe in His Promise.

"One Day..."

"Pray With Faith..."

Psalm119:11

"Going Beyond A Catapulting/Rolling Ball"


Take Heart...God is in the details & in every thing, give thanks!

The sky was hovered with clouds but no drizzles nor scattered rain. Glory to God. So here we are, playing our first game for the season.
Oddly, I didn't get to play the first inning. I got lost for almost an hour finding the venue. I could have just retreated and headed home but my heart desired to be there. It's not "biggie" for me if I get to "kick" or not. I would have been content just cheering them on and taking mementos.

And, so, I've learned that adrenalin levels rush in the field. Kickball is alive. It is not a game for kids anymore. It's more fun to watch adults playing it with so much zest.
       All the images I captured will prove my point. The men in
        our group have come through for the team. Catapulted or
      rolled, they were unstoppable, relentless in catching the
       ball. The women, however, were also up to par playing in
         juxtaposed with the men in our team. Remarkable, I
         thought...& it was!

My ears didn't hear uncouth cheers--that will definitely throw me off. I just felt sorry for one lady on the other team that got hurt while running to the second base. Thinking about it now makes me think the inevitable circumstances that are unforeseen. We can only hope & pray that her injury is minor and see her play on the next game.

Thus, I'm proud of how we played the game. We lost the first game but the second game in the afternoon has anchored us to a better standing. I also got to kick after which it felt like I pulled a muscle. And I was limping gracefully. Nobody even hardly noticed it till I told a comrade. I couldn't wait to slump
my body on the couch or on my bed at home.
                                                                                                  
                                                                                                     
                                                                                                    

Thank you guys for a great Start...

Look at us...still with unwavering smiles...
