…”you’re giving her “memory days” she continued…..John some days come and some days go, “she quickly replied. “People don’t realize that every day is a new beginning and a chance to start over. There are days that people remember forever, while other days simply slip away into their yesterdays and tomorrows. You never know when you’re giving someone a “Memory Day”. It can be an act of kindness, a trip to the country, or something as simple as helping an elderly woman with her groceries. People remember certain days for the rest of their lives”. “We take these memories with us when we pass, she said, “and I do believe that we review our lives with all our faults and accomplishments. Why not have the best memories by our side, and try to give good ones to whomever we can?’

Set a dream before you,
If a dream can be shared,
Watch it become a reality

“It has been proven that plants are good for our psychological development. If you green an area, the rate of crime goes down. Torture victims begin to recover when they spend time outside in a garden with flowers. So we need them in some deep psychological sense,which I don’t suppose anybody really understands yet” -Jane Goodall
“From my perspective, I absolutely believe in a greater spiritual power, far greater than I am, from which I have derived strength in moments of sadness and fear. That’s what I believe and it was very, very strong in the forest” -Jane Goodall

Today’s sketch ,a Little Birdy :)
First, let me introduce you to my son’s cat, Daisy…
She may look sweet and innocent, but she has quite the reputation as a peeping Tom in the neighbors windows – and a vicious little serial killer with the all the neighborhood critters.(Needless to say I am bestowed with many gifts left kindly at my front door. Once, she jumped on a turkeys back –now that is brave, though a perhaps a bit short sighted. Her scar was worth the thrill!)
She’s all personality…..This photo is of the sweet and innocent variety. It’s probably diner time and shes reminding me how much she cares.
As her main person/feeder, when I don’t have my son to help out I enjoy my “cat/parrot” scarf accessory, but her nails are quite sharp. My son is a bit envious of her love of my shoulders. I am hoping someday she will favor his. Daisy, what I want to know is, where does all that drool come from? (If any of you out there have a Tuxedo cat, is this normal for these guys?)
Lesson for the day:
“Sometimes your shoulders can get a little wet and lacerated, and that’s ok.”
A thought to live by from Daisy:
”Sometimes you just feel so happy you can’t help but drool a little bit.”
