This is such a lovely message to many of us 55 or better aged ladies . Thank you for sharing . One thing I’ve really adopted recently is to be positive in all situations. Even when I want to complain and join in a negative trail of talk I have asked the Lord to help me redirect my words. And He does.
In recent months people have commented on my positivity , joy, the smile on my face (even though they know I’m struggling with a wayward son). God is so good.
Oh, I love that! Being positive is truly an attractive quality and so much better than complaining (I sure hear you there). And how beautiful that you can smile, even have joy, when you're heart is heavy over a struggling son.
I have one such friend! We met before I was married, over 35 years ago, and she's been my mentor and dear friend 💜 Distance separates us now, but our friendship is still strong.
Thank you for sharing this story and your thoughts with it.
Love the guesthouse ~ just beautiful! I love all the seating to take in the views!
What a gift such friends are! And how wonderful that you're still friends despite the distance. My friends above, Susan and Jodie, live in Virginia while I'm in Oregon, so I know how that goes. :)
And I'm glad you liked the guesthouse! (I actually wrote this post sitting in one of those chairs!)
