I'm sitting in the yard and
admiring the view without fussing
about the weeds in the garden.
I'm spending more time
with my family and friends
and less time working.
Whenever possible, life should be a
pattern of experience to savor,
not to endure.
I'm trying to recognize these
moments now and cherish them.
We use our good china and crystal

and luster to our lives.
Every day,every minute,
every breath truly is
a Gift from GOD.
