I have to tell you that Put On a Happy face is my new theme song.
It is so easy to get overwhelmed and discouraged.
I have been there, I know.
It is very discouraging to turn on the news and see what is going on in our own neighborhood, country and around the world.
The only thing I can control is my own attitude toward problems. I have faith but it gets tested on a regular basis. There are many setbacks but the one thing that has made a difference is the way I choose to look at life.
We are not abandoned, a promise was made years ago.
A smile can make all the difference.
I hope to visit everyone this week but if I don't make my way around, know that I am smiling.

When I feel down, I wander outside into the gardens. I manage to lose myself in the wonder of nature. Start to pulling weeds or raking the leaves. Problems forgotten.
