WOW........

Can you not look at this sink of darling baby ducks and not say WOW?  Such perfect little miracles, if they would only stay that way.......so tiny, sweet and innocent.  So many miracles in our life every day.  Number one miracle.....Place your hands on your stomach and feel it expand as you inhale.  Then let it contract and deflate as you exhale. The cycle happens, on average,720 times an hour, more than 17,000 times a day--without your even thinking about it.....WOW.  I stand in awe of the miracle that is life......Just spent the weekend in Island Park and witnessed some of the greatest show on earth.  The beautiful red sun set, (because of the fires roaring in Idaho), and the beautiful sunrises God shares with us.....WOW.  We are very lucky and its all free, so take advantage of it. Nothing more fresh than the smell after a rain storm or more inspiring than a clear morning after a fresh snow storm. Live fast.....while you last!
Today a great day of lunch and bridge with dear friends. Then one of my best friends, Patty Beltz , dropped by for a very good visit, we have had many special hours together just listening. "Being 'up' isn't being happy or perky,"  "It refers to traits that every human has, such as optimism, conscientiousness, and working toward and completing goals." People who are optimists are resourceful, have coping skills and mobilize social support. Isn't that interesting?
