What is without periods of rest will not endure.
--Ovid

When we are tired, we need to stop and give ourselves time to rest. Sometimes we think we can't spare the time. But without rest, all our activity soon becomes a burden and there is no joy in it. Animals know it is necessary to take time to rest. This is part of the rhythm of life: activity and rest, effort and relaxation.

Our bad moods are often our body's way of telling us we need rest. When we were little, we needed naps. Somehow, we forget to allow ourselves this right when we are older. We are wise to remember we never outgrow this need for rest to make the day go better.

When we return to our day refreshed, we have given ourselves and all those around us the gift of ourselves at our best.

What can I do better when I am rested?

The love of a person implies not

the possession of that person,

but the affirmation

of

that person

in all their uniqueness"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Those whose perception of others is

unconditionally loving will receive

unconditional love,

enough for themselves

and to give to others."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Those who can be conscious of their wrongs

and self-correct them with joy and

forgiveness

shall be

cured

of

mental

stress and grow stronger

another good one phil.

just another day to remember that things will be okay....just have to have faith.

my life is better than it used to be.

MY ANIMALS KNOW MORE THAN I DO. UNCONDITIONBAL LOVE ALWAYS. I NEVER HAD MUCH OF THAT FROM HUMANS. SAD: jUUST TRYING TO SLOOOOOOW DOWN.  LOTS OF CRAP GOING ON I WON'T CRY TO YOU,JUST PRAY. THINKING OF MY MISSING CAT, I NEVER WANTED ANY CATS. I HAD CATS AS A CHILD AND JUST DIDN'T CARE. WE'LL 2 WERE SENT MY WAY AS STRAYS ABOUT 5 OR 6 YEARS APART. THE MISSING ONE USE TO HANG ON THE SCREEN ON THE 2 ND FLOOR OF MY HOUSE. USE TO WORRY HE WOULD FALL A FULL STORY, SO I WOULD GRAB HIM AND PULL HIM IN THE WINDOW. WE'LL I STARTED TO LIKE HIM, OFF TO THE VET ETC. USE TO SAY GOD SENT HIM AND HE CAN TAKE HIM ANY DAY, MAYBE IN PROJECTING HE IS DEAD, WHO KNOWS ONLY TIME WILL TELL. I MISS THE LITTLE S----T, SO DOES MY DOG AND OTHER CAT. I GUESS I'M SLOOOWING DOWN RIGHT NOW AS I POST. WENDY I CAN RELATE TO TURNING ON THE COMPUTER AND HRS. IT TAKES ME SOOOOO LONG JUST TO TYPE THIS IN. I WAS A MEATCUTTER NOT A SECRETARY, MY SPELLING IS BAD, BUT I SEE I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE. THE GOOD THING IS NOBODY ON HERE COMPLAINS!!!! WHERE ALL JUST A BUNCH OF X DRUNKS.  SOOOO GLAD U ARE ALL HERE EVEN THOUGH I TALK THRU TYPE!!

EVERYONE HAVE A BLESSED DAY RICK

Yes Ellen-life gets better IF WE LET IT>:)  I have no doubt that yours will too.  Have a great day Gal!!

 

And Rick? I type with one finger--you are not alone-hahaha

My old Grampa used to say " You can only hammer one nail into a board at one time"

Ive tried to use a hammer in each hand at the same time, but somehow, it just doesnt work.:)

And animals yaaa-have a cat that jumps on my head at 3 am and says" Wake up. Ive got noone to play with." And 4 fish that look at me through the glass each morning with those big eyes, and say "feed me Daddy."  Hell! I dont even swim!! hahaha

I gotta get a life!! lol

One thing at a time Buddy-one day at a time. Someones watching over yu.:)

Unconditional love? Its great to give it but if your giving it to someone whos sitting on top of a sheet pile, what youre going to get back, is going to stink.

Oh well-give it anyway.:)

Hafta give love to ourselves too bud. Thats the first thing.

Hope your cat comes back. Never know. Maybe they found a playmate.:)

 

It's ok if you type slow...I read slow!!LOL

I've been busy busy busy but had to check in...love you all and I'll see ya next week when all the bikers go home!

Love,cheri
