Yesterday I Stopped. Not because things were bad or out of sorts but because it was time. For me, the time to look at or look back at my life is when the sun is shining. Okay, yesterday I was partly cloudy but enough good to keep me smiling...I have a good life and good people in my life. I've come from and through a lot of **** but I am standing here now.  I've said, goodbyes or see you later to many people and things. I will be saying goodbyes and see you later to many people and things to come but in this moment I'm here, we are here. I Love and care for others, sometimes to much but I am who I am. Some choices I've made or making will have to be changed but that is life. But I am here in this moment.
I Love this post because it reminds me of something I was told many moons ago:
"You can not make a mistake...they are choices. The best choices you can make with the information you have at the time but when you learn better...you stop and make the changes to make thing better. To do better."
Ms. Minerva (my Grandmother)
I realize you do make mistakes, when you know better and don't make the changes to do better, Be better...that is a mistake. Yes, I've done that too. But, as I've said before, "I am here now." Knowing who and what I am, making the choices to change for the better...I hope.
So yesterday I Stopped, so today I could shine!
So, You have a bright and shinny day. Make choices and changes for the better...not mistake. Know that You are loved and there are people and things on your side. But the biggest thing is for You to be on Your side and Love yourself big time!!!
Have a Grand Day. Wonderful Adventures. Keep creating the Greatness that we call Life!!
BIG SMILES To All!!!
