“We can never turn back the pages of time, though we may wish to relive a happy moment, or say goodbye just one last time, we never can, because the sands of time continue to fall, and we can’t turn the hourglass over.”
“Some of us think holding on makes us strong, but sometimes it is letting go.”
~Herman Hesse
You Are Stronger Than You Think
"You are stronger than you think, remember to stand tall.
Every challenge in your life helps you to grow.
Every problem you encounter strengthens your mind and your soul.
Every trouble you overcome increases your understanding of life.
When all your troubles weigh heavily on your shoulders, remember that beneath the burden you can stand tall, because you are never given more than you can handle... and you are stronger than you think."
This is neat. Your picture fits in good as I could just see two old witches flying over past haunts of a younger day. .. BTW, the bulldozer got my old 'room.' It was a front porch with a couch because my little sister took over the second bedroom of our four room house. We both were born in that house. ..
sandee, home is where your heart is. =) that was a painful lesson i learned recently. the good thing is that i can still go back. thanks for stopping by again. :)
Yes, maybe the other witch is the 'new inhabitant' of the old room. GET HER GONE FROM THERE! .. Thank you for visiting me. You came to my 'journal' blog, Jim's Little Blog. My haiku is on this blog (Jim's Little Photo and Poem Place). I would be pleased for you to read it as well. Thank you, ..

On January 25, 2005, I lost my husband. Welcome to my random thoughts about losing James and finding myself again. For in this journey called Life, "there is no such thing as a negative experience... only opportunities to grow."

Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect. It means you decide to see beyond the imperfections.
"Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward to the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage and confidence." ~ Og Mandino
If I could wish for my life to be perfect, it would be tempting, but I would have to decline, for life would no longer teach me anything.
"For I know the
plans I have for
you," declares
the Lord, "plans
to prosper you
and not to harm
you, plans to give
you hope and a
future."
Jeremiah 29:11-14
