Message from MiMi: Angels and Empty Pots

Angels and Empty Pots

We had about two hours of glorious sunshine today! Angels and empty pots everywhere! I wonder….could these angels fill these empty pots???
This sweet thing is actually a little lamp. See her wick on her halo?

Surely she can handle these two pots?

Praying always helps!

I think this precious thing has allergies. See him rubbing his eyes?

I believe in angels….so we’ll see.

“Every person, especially every woman, should be alone

sometime during the year, some part of each week, and

each day.” — Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Learn to get in touch with silence within yourself and

know that everything in this life has a purpose.

There are no mistakes, no coincidences.

All events are blessings given to us to learn from.

Elizabeth Kubler-Ross

Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they

were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them

all the care, kindness, and understanding you can

muster, and do it with no thought of any reward.

Your life will never be the same again. Og Mandino

You don't get to choose how you're going to die,

or when. You can only decide how you're going to live.

Thank God every morning when you get up that

you have something to do which must be done,

whether you like it or not. --Charles Kingsley

"Some blessings come soon, some come late,

and some don’t come until heaven;

but for those who embrace the gospel of

Jesus Christ, they come."

A lie goes half way around the world before

the truth can get its pants on!..Winston Churchill

Be faithful in the little practices of love which

build in you the life of holiness and make you

Christlike...Mother Theresa

The Lord sends no one away empty except

those who are full of themselves. Dwight L. Moody

"Do all the good you can, by all the means you can,

In all the ways you can, In all the places you can,

To all the people you can , as long as ever you can.

John Wesley

Fishing is our handshake, our language.

A heritage that binds us together. A passage

our fathers took. A journey that lasts a lifetime,

that we have begun again with our sons and daughters.

Make every one of your moments count.

Relish each day as if there would never be another.

When you get the choice to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance.

Love doesn't hurt. It feels really good.

When you know better, you ought to do better.

You have the right to change your mind.

Failure is a way we learn that we are moving

in the wrong direction, that we should try something different.

"Say thank you!" Maya Angelou

Happiness is never something you get from

other people. The happiness you feel is in

direct proportion to the love you give.

Always keep several get well cards on

the mantle… So if unexpected guests arrive,

They will think you’ve been sick and unable to clean. Maxine

I've learned that you can tell a lot about

a person by the way he/she handles four

things:a rainy day, the elderly, lost luggage,

and tangled Christmas tree lights.

If you want to feel rich, count all the things

you have that money can't buy.

You know you're getting old when..

your children look middle aged.

You know you're getting old when...

You feel like the night after, and you haven't been anywhere.

We have flown the air like birds and swum

the sea like fishes, but have yet to learn the simple

act of walking the earth like brothers.

"In this life we cannot do great things.

We can only do small things with great love." Mother Theresa

Singing can heal the soul.

Friends are God's way of taking care of us.

"God writes the gospel not in the Bible

alone, but also on trees, and in the flowers

and clouds and stars" Martin Luther

I haven't trusted polls since I read that 62%

of women had affairs during their lunch hour.

I've never met a woman in my life who

would give up lunch for sex.

It's frustrating when you know all the

answers but nobody bothers to ask you the questions.

When you fall down, you wonder what else

you can do while you're down there.

Grandparenting is good medicine.

You can't plough a field by turning it

over in your mind.

It was one of those March days when

the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold:

when it is summer in the light, and winter

in the shade. ~Charles Dickens

We need to "practice" giving people a break.

If we had any idea what other people

are going through in their lives we

would not be so judgmental.

We must be the change we wish to

see. Mahatma Ghandi

"You are braver than you believe,

and stronger than you seem,

and smarter than you think". Christopher Robin

To raise children who go on to be

great parents is an accomplishment---

That's our Oscar moment in life.

Regarding aging: If life is a three-act play,

I am chronologically in my third act.

Dustin Hoffman

Do not forget little kindnesses,

and do not remember small faults. Chinese proverb

Caffiene is essential.

The age of a woman doesn't mean a thing.

The best tunes are played on the

oldest fiddles. Ralph Waldo Emerson

Teach your kids to be kind.

An invitation doesn't mean you have to go!

"I've been young---I know how miserable

it can be". from "Tuesdays with Morrie"

I believe most people do the best

they can with what they have.

Sometimes what may seem right

at the moment, isn't in the long run.

I think we need to forgive when we can,

rise above it, learn something

and hopefully do better.

Grace is when God gives us what we don't deserve.
Mercy is when God doesn't give us what we do deserve.
