First Day on the Blog

Day 1 on this blog.  I have always wanted to simply document the little things.  Observations while sipping my coffee in the morning or untamed little thoughts that flit by upon first opening our eyes.  And yes sometimes these are the best ideas!!!

There is a world of wonderful, fascinating and wild beauty out there, and in these dark and dreary times that many of us face, I would like to share them with you.  We can so easily get caught up in the news, what is politically correct (but bugs us), parameters, opinions, peer pressure and whatever else hems us in.  It is time to lay all those things aside and be a child again.  Listen, to the sounds around us, look, at the good things, touch, someone's life, taste, of the bountiful gifts of mother nature and smell the fresh rain or the sunshine on the freshly washed sheets.  Remember..........

It is not wrong to be observant.

It is not wrong to be quiet.

It is not wrong to smile at a stranger.

It is not wrong to work hard.

It is not wrong to care.

It is not wrong to put someone before yourself.
