What to say....what to say...

It's cold outside. It's been a long, hard winter and today is Groundhog Day. Will he see his shadow? And if he does, who in the Sam Hill remembers if that means more winter or not?

I don't remember a time when I've been surrounded by so many who are so distraught, discouraged, or discombobulated. What to do....what to do...

1. Remember that we are all in this together.
2. Realize that the person next to you is your brother.
3. Reach out and lift whenever possible.
4. Try to find something to laugh about. Because life is seriously funny.

And the sun will come out tomorrow, somewhere over the rainbow, and just around the riverbend, good times are a comin'. Sure nuff! Oh, and this, too, shall pass!

I remember this from Paper Moon:

Just around the corner, there's a rainbow in the sky!
So, let's have another cup of coffee! Let's have another piece of pie!

I'm not a Positive Thinker in the sense that you can control your life with positive thoughts. However, I am a believer in the line from Don't Worry, Be Happy where he says "In every life we have some trouble, But when you worry you make it double".

I like your list. Put into practice, we'll all be better for it.

Thanks for the encouragement.

It's true. I never remember what the groundhog's shadow means. What a silly and interesting tradition.

Thanks for helping me out during my down, pregnancy hormone days.

Isn't Sean cute?
