When life gives you marshmallows

Same photo from yesterday’s blogs. Here’s the rest of that memory…
Two people sitting at a wooden picnic table
Same place but table top level.

Walked away to zoom in for this pic.

And this pic right afterwards…

And this pic right after that last one…we had a table by the window, overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

When life gives you marshmallows, make peanut butter and marshmallow sandwiches.

What does it look like?

18-second video: A college fraternity brother is getting conflicting results about CJD. While he awaits final answers, doing what i can to remind him and his wife that we are thinking of, and praying for, them.

What does it look like?

What does what look like?

What does “living like you mean it” look like?

Living like you mean it looks a lot like snowflakes. No two snowflakes are exactly the same (as the saying goes anyway). No two people, no two ways, no two actions are exactly the same.

However, make a pile of snowflakes and it simply looks white.

Make a pile of “living like you mean it” actions and it simply looks invisible to most people. Or, if not invisible, perhaps it simply looks like good and decent living.

Yet one of your actions can have a loving effect on only two people. And only those two people will ever know that in that moment you were “living like you mean it”.

Insight: A busy life can make over-focusing tempting to ignore or delay (possibly forever).

Just a photo, spirit

My Maternal Grandmother’s live-in boyfriend. Never knew my ‘real’ grandfather. But Russ was a cool dude to us. Ps. Note the cigarette in his other hand.

Keep feeling

Keep feeling.

Thinking, moving, feeling — mind, body, spirit.

Keep your spirt vibrant.

Do unto others.

Faith, hope, and love. We all know the greatest of these.

Be a blessing to yourself and others.

The first victory is self. The second is with family at home.

Can’t buy me love

The Beatles are one of music’s great icons.

Kudos to them and their management and marketing teams.

The notion that you could buy love is as philosophical as philosophy gets.

But when you have love, you have a wealth money can’t buy.

Here’s to hoping that is your life.
