Monday Musings

Out in my yard today... a balmy 51 degrees and sunny!  A bit of a January thaw here.  The landscape looks pretty desolate right now.  Lots of brown.

I'm grateful for... the sacrifices of those who have gone on before me.  I am able to enjoy the life that I have because so many unselfish people made a way for me.

One of my favorite things... challenging myself to consider something from a different perspective.  I'm not always successful, but I enjoy the challenge nevertheless.

This week I'm reading... actually I'm just finishing up In the Company of Others by Jan Karon.  A recent book club pick, it has been a slower read compared to some of her other books. However, I simply adore Father Tim, so I will continue on to the end.

I'm looking forward to... Thursday and the start of our Moms Bible study group for this semester.  For the next few weeks we will be focusing on the quality of our thoughts and how to passionately pursue our purpose.

Simple life tip for the week... "Never succumb to the temptation of bitterness." ~Martin Luther King, Jr.
