Good Monday morning. Here is a beautiful picture my granddaughter Erin took in her travels. I like it. It has a feeling of serenity and peace, the sun is setting after a busy day as the tide is coming in and I am wondering where you were when all this was going on. Walking a city street? Jogging down a pathway? Heading home after a busy day? This would be an ideal picture to blow up poster size and have hanging in your bedroom so if you felt restless or couldn't sleep, this picture would help you to relax and fall into a quiet mode.
The calendar says it is "D-Day", can you remember where you were when the news broke? The Memorial Day movies brought back so many memories of that day and the loss of lives. Light a candle for the brave souls that gave their all for you and me. If nothing else, we owe them big time.
As for this little guy, looks a bit like my pocketbook after a trip to Freddys for some groceries. I had to laugh yesterday when my son John wrote about his shopping expedition and the cost of things. It is usually me doing all the griping and groaning over the new every day higher price and I am not shy about complaining to anyone who will listen. It is not fair, not right, not just, that the grocery stores get away with the daily rise in prices. If everyone was working and had a good income that would be one thing, but a lot of folks haven't worked in a year or two, have food stamps to contend with and cannot get some necessary and needed items, like paper products. Where will all this end? and when? Just how much are you willing to pay for a piece of steak . . . the eatable ones are ten dollars and better per pound; even hamburger runs five dollars a pound, well . . . $4.95, How folks with children can survive is a mystery to me.
So today, if you are lucky to have an income, celebrate your good fortune by buying a few extra groceries and share them with your local food bank. Those folks work hard to help the unfortunate who are having a really bad time of it right now. Try and remember when you are checking out your food closet, not to throw out the old bent cans, go out and buy new so those folks will stay healthy and well so when work comes their way they will be strong and willing to go back to work and then help others. It is a good circle to belong to. Be one of the 'good guys' and make someone smile today. Hugs to all.
