The Best Things In Life Are Free
Today may be cloudy, but just sniff that fresh air. The sun may not be shining (where I'm at anyway), but it sure is shining inside me
.
Family and friends make a wonderful difference in the way we view life.
Dolly Partons' song "Coat of Many Colors", makes a wonderful statement. While she was telling the story of how proud she was of her new coat, the children were laughing and making fun of her. She said, "I couldn't understand it, for I felt that I was rich. And I told them of the love my Mama sewed in every stitch....... And I told them all the story Mama told me as she sewed and how my coat of many colors was worth more than all their gold."
It wasn't the coat, or its beauty, or its value. It was the time with Mama and the love Mama poured into making something out of nothing for her loved little one.
If you are having a down day, spend some time with a loved one or someone who has no one. Pour a little sunshine into their lives, and the sun will come out for you.
My daughter came by when I was feeling a little low and said,"Come on Mom, we're going somewhere." She is really not interested in antique shops or flea markets, but she took me to my favorite shops, then took me to lunch.
The sun came out inside and outside for me. Hope it does for you too!!!!
Blessings.
