Promise yourself to be so strong that nothing can

disturb your peace of mind. Look at the sunny side

of everything and make your optimism come true.

Think only of the best, work only for the best,

and expect only the best. Forget the mistakes of the

past and press on to the greater achievements of

the future. Give so much time to the improvement

of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.

Live in the faith that the whole word is on your side

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

Remember our feathered friends during hot and

dry weather. If you do not have a bird bath, simply put

any container out - we fill our bird bath sometimes

two and three times daily. It is a popular spot in

our back yard ... and we find it entertaining to

watch them and comforting too - to know we

help nature along ....

Remember the five simple rules to be happy:

Free your heart from hatred.

your mind from worries.

Live simply.

Give more.

Expect less.

When yesterday was a disappointment and

today isn’t better, remember there is  always a tomorrow,

so make it something to look forward to and smile.

~ Unknown

Happiness is like a butterfly.

The more you chase it, the more it

eludes you. But if you turn your attention

to other things, it will come and sit

softly on your shoulder.
