WEDNESDAY'S ENTRY # TWO THOUSAND & TWENTY SIX

" Time is so precious-do not waste."
.
( This below was so good that was sent to me yesterday, I just had to show it first, the last few words of the article spoke very loudly to me, Dad,)
.
One day , the father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the express purpose of showing him how poor people live.

They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family.

On their return from their trip , the father asked his son , "How was the trip?"

"It was great , Dad."

"Did you see how poor people live?" the father asked.

"Oh yeah , " said the son.

"So , tell me , what did you learn from the trip?" asked the father.

The son answered:

"I saw that we have one dog and they had four.

We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end.

We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night.

Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon.

We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight.

We have servants who serve us , but they serve others.

We buy our food , but they grow theirs.

We have walls around our property to protect us , they have friends to protect them."

The boy's father was speechless.

Then his son added , "Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are."

Isn't perspective a wonderful thing? Makes you wonder what would happen if we all gave thanks for everything we have, instead of worrying about what we don't have.

Appreciate every single thing you have , especially your friends!

Pass this on to friends and acquaintances and help them refresh their perspective and appreciation.

"Life is too short and friends are too few.."
.
I do have something very special to tell you. Today is Oreo's Birthday. He will be three years old. I am sure that you know him, he is that very talented and sweet Sheltie that belongs to Sara, we see him every day at
Sara's Dog Training blog be sure that you go there today and wish him a happy birthday, he will appreciate it. DAD.
.

.

I had a rare treat on Saturday. We went to the Farmers' Market at Kapiolani Community College. One of the vendors was selling Fried Green Tomatoes. She wasn't selling her treasures, just frying them up I had big smiles between bites. Yummy! Now, I can surely wait until summer when Joan's are big and green and ready for the frypan.

Here is my thought for the weekend.
.
" There's a wideness in Gods Mercy, Like the widness of the sea; There's a kindness in his justice, which is more than liberty."
.
" For the love of God is broader, than the measure of man's mind; And the heart of the Eternal. Is most wonderfully kind."
.
." If our love were but more simple, We should take him at his word, And our lives would be all sunshine.In the sweetness of our Lord.".
.

Here is my thought for this Friday morning.

" Be cherful ! Give this lonsome world a smile; We stay, at longest, but a little while. Hasten we must, or we shall loose the chance, to give the gentle word, the kindly glance. Be sweet and tender; that is doing good,'Tis doing what no other good deed could."

This below is my thought for this Thursday,
.
" Sheep never chew their cud if not satisfied. Sheep don’t eat garbage. Sheep seek light. Sheep nearest the shepherd gets tidbits from his hand. Sheep seek fellowship with other sheep, don’t care to be with other animals. They are called dumb, as they are so defenseless. Jesus never once defended himself, he had the slain lamb nature."

Here below is a nice little poem, it would be good for our thought for this day.
.
They Do Not Know.

" They do not know the harm they do,
who say an unkind thing;
The hasty word, by them forgot,
in some heart leaves a sting."

They do not know the good they do;
Who speak a heartening phrase,
or lend a helping hand along,
Life's steep and rugged ways."

O careless ones, think what you do;
Take heed to what you say;
And, kindly ones, speak, laugh, and sing.
And cheer us on our way." .

Three verses taken from this poem by Emma A. Lent.
.
I am sure that you can tell that I have been having problems with old Dell this morning, but I think that is all go right now, DAD.
.
So while I am ahead I am going to stop for this day.
I will be back in the A.M.if all keeps working. I am sorry for the many things that I had to leave out today.
.
