1st Sunday In January 2009: Notice!

What if we start to Noticed the little things in life? Inhale now exhale need I say anymore. How about we start 2009 trying to make every moment count. Life is a blessing we often take for granted. We over look the small things that contribute to the large. As Alice Walker stated, we can walk pass a flower and not even notice its color. Take the time to notice and acknowledge how blessed you are. Notice when someone says, "Thank you or Please". Notice when someone tries to put a smile on your face. Notice the love you experience from your family. Notice the good in people. Notice strength. Notice peace and passion. Notice when someone says, "I love you." Notice that God has allowed you life and another day. Just take the time to NOTICE! Love hard, love long and love with your heart. Know that true love does not even acknowledge when it has been hurt....love just keeps on.....Do not take love for granted... Life is a blessing live as though you know it. Just something to think about.

Hi Ann! Happy New Year!!

Thank you so much for staying in touch over the holidays, it's always nice to be thought about.

This is such a great post, and so much of who you seem to be. I began "stopping to smell the roses" some years ago, and it has made me a better person to myself and others.
