Be patient

Even if things don’t go right,

be patient,

take nature’s example.

This is a Maracuja plant I had in the garden and after Winter it looked dead.

I left it and look what is coming. Everything is late this year as it has been and is still rather cold.

Patience is all and I am grateful and happy.

Happy is good for your Health

In these challenging times

it is so important to still be happy.

As Voltaire describes and Francois illustrates it:

 

Happiness is good for your health

now even more!

 

Stay happy and healthy!

“We’re unable to go out, so many of us go in.

Sleep, recharge, pray, meditate, journal.

Reflect on what’s important and what makes us truly happy.

To many, it’s a transition from survival to living.

During times of pain, we are invited to learn new ways of being—to do less and be more.

To reconnect with our true human nature.”

~Sara Fabian

Hello May – Give yourself some loving

 

The best way to live a positive life in the present is to love who you are.

everything changes.

Everything in your life becomes a reflection of that love.
