Our Memories

We all have memories that we think

about sometimes. There are both

good memories as well as bad.

The good memories often come

from our childhood and trips that 

we went on. Our loved ones that

are no longer with us we think 

about a lot. 

The bad memories may come 

up once in a while or we might

surpress them. Giving forgiveness 

can help us though.

Our memories will help us in

our life purpose too. We can 

help those we mentor by

sharing them.

May you have a bless day and

enjoy the good memories along 

the way.   ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Welcome To February

Some ways I feel January is the 

longest month of the year and goes

faster now on. February will have 

28 days.

Today is Groundhog Day. It is my

late Father's birthday. I am not

sure exactly how old I was when I 

found out this was his birthday 

however I did laugh.

The meaning of Groundhog Day

is he comes out and sees his shadow 

there is six more weeks of winter.

No shadow spring is about to arrive.

This is a superstition so have to see

how much science comes from it.

We should never live in superstition 

however it can be fascinating.

I suppose if this wasn't my dad's 

birthday it wouldn't have any

importance to me. 

Have a great day and may February 

be a blessed month. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Overcoming The State Of The World

I know these days it isn't easy days 

to live in the world. If you speak for

what is truly right you can be judged

by some.

This is why being around those who

value the same things you is a good 

idea. This doesn't mean you can't 

be around others but can't drink 

their water so to speak. 

At least in the United States it is

getting harder to stand  up for

the right values.  It is important 

to live in integrity as well. Watch

out for those who oppose you.

Don't watch what comes on media 

including social. Take it all with 

a grand of salt.

There are different areas where our

purpose comes to play. For some

it might be in politics. We have to

learn about politics but not spend 

a lot of time on it unless it is part 

of your purpose. I don't watch

need very often since it is so

negative and I read lies from

the left. Becon the side of values.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Being A Good Actor

I believe in life most of us are good

actors. I am saying this because 

we don't put our true face on.

This is ok since we don't want to be

hurt however sometimes we need to 

let others in. We all have fears and

doubts at time. 

If you think someone is a bad person 

the likelihood is that they have been

hurt at one time. What we can do is

listen. We don't always have to give

advice unless they ask for it. I think

the reason people think they are being

judged. 

The best mentor or advisor is someone

who has gone through things so they

can give sound advice. Being honest 

that is what most of us want.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Being Approachable

We all should be approachable however

it isn't in everyone's makeup and  it

can be the timing. 

I know some people are not interested 

in talking while others are. 

I usually try to keep the conversation 

short or change subject several times.

This comes down whether this is the

first time meeting or not. 

If they are not interested the likelihood 

is they are busy or have been busy

and want to relax without talking

with someone. 

Though my success rate is pretty good

I can tell fairly early if someone wants

to talk. In some instances I may not 

say anything by there body language.

I recommend be approachable even

when  you don't have a lot of time.

If the other person says hello just

say you don't have much time to

talk right now. 

Some people might not be interested 

anyway at the moment but you might

want to risk anyway. It all comes 

down to who you are. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Seeing Old Friends

In the past week I have seen a couple

of old friends in town.

The first one was last Saturday while 

I was visiting coffee shop. It was a

neighbor while growing up. He

 now lives in Bellingham Washington 

where he moved after going to college 

at Washington State. He is my

younger brother's age. He was in

town to visit his older sister. He

was on his way to go back home 

when I saw him.

The second one happened on Tuesday 

when I was in a grocery store. It happened 

that she is a neighbor of the sister of

the first one.  She and his sister were

in same graduation class too. Her parents 

owned and operated a grocery store

that specialized in meets. The store 

is still I existence however doesn't 

special in meets any longer. It still

has her family name to the store 

but is under other ownership.

I hope I get to have other encounters 

like these two again. It is so exciting 

to meet those you grew up together.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

When Discover Your Purpose

Life changes when discover your

life purpose. It should be real exciting 

since you know why your here and

not just living life out. 

Our purpose has a lot to do with

what we are interested in along 

with the gift and talents we have. 

Walking in those steps with your

job or occupation. The young time

you may be doing something that

isn't all that exciting however you

can direct your way.

You enjoy the outdoors fishing or

hiking are good things. They are

something to tell people about.

In case of fishing the largest and 

type of fish. Hiking is to tell others

where you have been and what you

have seen. You like photography 

then that is added bonus. You can

a blog  on it or posting on social

media. 

Having a purpose you know the

directions to go when you get up

each day.

Even beyond your occupation you

can do things like helping children 

who may have difficulty in areas 

that you have strength in if they

the same things.

If you have a day off work and don't 

have plans yet go out and try to

discover something new. Who knows 

it could be added to whatever you

do now. 

Have a great day. Enjoy it in any way 

you can.   ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Love All Around Us

I hear a lot sometimes about peace

on earth. I am not sure if coming 

anytime soon because of leaders

in so many countries. 

I believe we need to choose love 

for one another. Not another easy

task. With so many different 

personalities people can be irritated 

easily. This is the reason we have

to choose to. It is against our nature

too. 

I have decided to love others the

best I can. Not judge them if they

have different ideas from me.

We may in our mind to choose 

love no matter what the other 

is like. Sometimes people have

animals because they get along

better than humans. Although 

fine to get an animal this would

not be like I want to be.  

I encourage you to give your best

to love others even if they don't 

love right back to you. Doing so

will be better for us. 💗💗💗💗💗

life Change

We can feel discouraged at times maybe

even more than we like too. Well we should 

look for a life change. 

Our purpose should be a part of the 

change. We should look up and say

"God change me and this life I lead."

I believe many can change if they 

desire.  We have to be tired of what

our life is like. 💗💗💗💗

Something New

Came to my mind something that

I did in the past.  Years ago I decided 

to go out for a play at the church 

that I was attending at the time. 

I had done a play when I was in

Junior high school. It wasn't a major 

part and I actually was sick when the

play actually happened. So I tried

out for this play and I had a very good 

part. Only a few men turned out 

to play in it. I found out that I was

actually good at acting. I don't 

remember if I was back in junior high

school sometimes talent takes

longer in life to actually happen.

It might come down to confidence 

it you realize what people may have

said to you wasn't really true. Whatever

the case I was in three plays. I was

supposed to be in a fourth one however

one other actor he backed out and there

wasn't time to find another. There were

only three actors for men. I had the

starring role but each actor played 

multiple parts. There were three women

roles as well playing multiple parts

as well. It is too bad it wasn't pulled 

off however it would have stretched 

me since I would have had to memorize 

a lot of lines.

Now think back about after all these

years it was something to help me

have the confidence to do the purpose 

I was called to do which included 

writing this blog. So if something 

comes to your mind that is new give

it a shot it may change your life

altogether.  If you don't years later

you may have regretted it. Don't 

let others say you can't do it either.

I know there are things still ahead

of me however the acting not helped

me get where I am today.  💗💗💗💗💗

All Go Through Loneliness

At some time or another we all are 

in the wilderness and are lonely.

Sometimes it has to with circumstances.

I feel lonely most often during the

holidays or at night.  We just have to 

make an effort to be with other

people. 

There are those who don't mind being

lonely however they still need people

to spend time with. In fact they might

be able to help those who get depressed 

with being lonely. It doesn't mean they

can't stop being alone when they want

to be.

Our purpose along with community is

how we thrive more in life. We shouldn't 

ignore our purpose though we should

have time to rest from it. I hope this

helps you better.  💗💗💗💗💗

Our Security

We all try to find security in different 

ways. For some it is in wealth while 

for others it is in their faith.

I see more security in our faith. It

is having a personal relationship 

with Jesus Christ. This is his desire

to have a relationship with us over

anything else. 

He created us with a purpose directly 

unique to us. Some my call it a calling.

For some it maybe a missionary to

another country or doing it right where

you are at. 

Our purpose could be in the job and

our families and friends around us. 

Many missionaries have come out

of United States over several centuries 

however these days United States can

use missionaries right here. It is those

who were born here or come from some

other country. We have people from

almost every country in the world 

living here so you can find a group

from your country. I am not saying

you must come however if it is in

your heart.  

Again we must find where our true

security is at. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Being Greatful

In the last few years gratitude has

become a big buz word. Being

greatful has the same meaning

as well. You can add thanksgiving 

as far as the same meaning.

So we should be greatful as often

as we can. In my mindset gratitude 

is how we are greatful and the same

goes for Thanksgiving.  I believe

thanksgiving is the action we take

to greatful. So we can use any of

the three. 

We should be greatful to have good 

friends and able to have enough

foot on the table along with the

finances. Gratitude is how we feel

toward all things. Thanksgiving is

speaking out the gratitude and greatful.

We should tell those who are close

to us how greatful we have them in

our lives.  There are many who

pray right before a meal and this

is is where we give thanksgiving.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
