Feel Terrific Tuesday


SMILE

Smiling is infectious,
you catch it like the flu,

When someone smiled at me today,
I started smiling too.

I passed around the corner,
and someone saw my grin -

When he smiled I realized,
I'd passed it on to him.

I thought about that smile,
then I realized its worth,

A single smile,
just like mine,
could travel round the earth.

So, if you feel a smile begin,
don't leave it undetected -

Let's start an epidemic quick
and get the world infected!

Saturday Sights and Sounds

Saturday's would all be music videos,  from various artists with songs ranging from love songs to the more upbeat ones...

And of course, as to be expected, being an MJ avid fan, my initial posting is a Michael Jackson clip :) so here's one of my all-time top top favourite song and video, You Rock My World;

Friday FREE-DAYs!

 with posting that could be of any sort :) except those of serious nature, or delicate matters, or depressing, or upsetting,  or offending... ah, you get the point ^.^

And here's for Free-day's initial posting;  and yes, there are times I wished to be able to turn time back again...



Being 8 Years Old Again

I am hereby officially tendering my resignation as an adult.  I have decided I would like to accept the responsibilities of an 8 year-old again.

  • I want to go to McDonald's and think that it's a four-star restaurant.
  • I want to sail sticks across a fresh mud puddle and make a sidewalk with rocks.
  • I want to think M&M's are better than money because you can eat them.
  • I want to lie under a big oak tree and run a lemonade stand with my friends on a hot summer's day.
  • I want to return to a time when life was simple.  When all you knew were colours, multiplication tables, and nursery rhymes, but that didn't bother you, because you were blissfully unaware of all the things that should make you worries or upset.
  • I want to think the world is fair.  That everyone is honest and good.
  • I want to believe that anything is possible.
  • I want to be oblivious to the complexities of life and be overly excited by the little things again.
  • I want to live simple again.  I don't want my day to consist of computer crashes, mountains of paperwork, depressing news, how to survive days in the month than there is money in the bank, doctor bills, gossip, illness, and loss of loved ones.
  • I want to believe in the power of smiles, hugs, a kind word, justice, peace, dreams, the imagination, mankind, and making angels in the snow.

So, here's my checkbook and my car-keys, my credit card bills and statements. I am officiall resigning from adulthood.  And if you want to discuss this further, you'll have to catch me first, cause... "Tag!, You're it!"

Thursday Tickle

Just For A Smile Or Two;
thought that on Thursdays, I'd just be posting funny, cute, or somewhat odd pictures, the kind that would cause a smile hopefully, or even just a raise of the eyebrows ^.^

And here's one I found :) think it's cleverly funny! well, if you're an MJ fan like me, you'd know what I mean...

Wednesday WORDS TO LIVE BY

TWENTY WORDS TO THE WISE

1.    God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts.
2.    Dear God: I have a problem. Sometimes, it's me.
3.    Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional.
4.   There is no key to happiness. The door is always open.
5.    Silence is often misinterpreted, but never misquoted.
6.    Do the math. Count your blessings.
7.    Faith is the ability to not panic.
8.    Laugh every day, it's like inner jogging.
9.    If we worry, we probably didn't pray. If we pray, we probably don't worry.
10.   As a child of God, prayer is kind of like calling home every day.
11.   Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.
12.  The most important things in our homes are the people.
13.   When we get tangled up in our problems, be still. God wants us to be still so He can untangle the knots for us.
14.  A grudge is a heavy thing to carry.
15.   He who dies with the most toys is still dead. And who knows where he has gone?
16.   We do not remember days, but moments. Life moves too fast, so enjoy your precious moments.
17.   Nothing is real to you until we experience it, otherwise it's just hearsay.
18.   It's all right to sit on our "pity pot" every now and again. Just be sure to flush when you are done.
19.   Surviving and living our life successfully requires courage. The goals and dreams we seek require courage and risk-taking. Learn from the turtle -- it only makes progress when it sticks out its neck.
20.   Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

Tuesday's Feel Terrific Day!

DISCOVERY

Today I smiled and all at once, things didn't look so bad
Today I shared with someone else a bit of hope I had
Today I sang a little song while my heart grew light
And I walked a happy little mile without a cloud in sight
Today I worked with what I had not longing for anything more
And what seemed like only weeds were flowers at my door
Today I loved a little more complained a little less
And in the giving of myself I forgot my weariness.

Monday's M Day (Michael Jackson Day)

Ehem! I admit, in fact, even so proud to say I'm a huge Michael Jackson fan :) so I'd want to begin each week with delightful MJ-ism, from funny macros, cute gifs, videos, anything nice with MJ, strictly none of those serious, delicate stuff, let's leave those things to other sites, after all, all I want is to hopefully bring a smile...


MJ: Oh! I like that! :)

Spiritual Sunday

THAT'S GOD

Have you ever been just sitting there and all of a sudden you feel like doing something nice for someone you care for?
THAT'S GOD... 
He talks to you through the Holy Spirit.

Have you ever been down and out and nobody seems to be around for you to talk to?
THAT'S GOD... 
He wants you to talk to Him.

Have you ever been thinking about somebody that you haven't seen in a long time and then next thing you know... you see them or receive a phone call from them?
THAT'S GOD... 
There! is no such thing as "coincidence."

Have you ever received something wonderful that you didn't even ask for? Like money in the mail, a debt that had mysteriously been cleared, or a coupon to a department store where you had just seen something you wanted, but couldn't afford?
THAT'S GOD... 
He knows the desires of your heart...

Have you ever been in a situation and you had no clue how it is going to get better, but now as you look back on it, you got through it?
THAT'S GOD... 
He passes us through tribulation to see a brighter day.
