It pays to wake up happy
It pays to try to be happy
It pays to try and think positive thoughts and let the negitive thoughts fall away like water rolling off a ducks back.
God wants us to be happy, love, and live life to the fullest that he offers us, because that is what he wants for us.
The Devil wants us to dwell in self pity and the negative, making feelings of anger, hate and frustration, because that is his goal for us.
I have been practising, when negativity rolls around, I try to think of something that makes me happy, or has made me happy, like holding each of my babies for the first time. Or some of the interesting hikes we took when we first met.
It changes my bad thoughts to good thoughts and then my whole outlook is better, and even the kids appear to be getting along better when I am happier.
Joy is the Goal!

Sick
I haven't written much, under just me.
I have been down and out with this flu or cold whatever it is. It has been a good week of feeling really awfull. There are times I don't have the energy to think straight, it is most frustrating to feel so weak and useless. Yet, I hear God speaking loudly to me, as I do sit and read his word and do rest. I just have to get over the guilt of doing nothing. I don't know why I don't feel good unless I manage to do something productive during the day. I guess that is in all of us. All I want is to feel better, yet each day seems to be a battle, and the battle hits hard at night, when all I do is try to sleep and have to cough every few seconds. It is very exhausting. I hope that today will be better and the beginning of a full recovery. Getting to worn out to want to do anything.
I have taken the time to listen to some of my favorite hymns this morning and I am enjoying that very much so. I hate missing church, but I did sort of have my own time with God this morning, so that is good.

This is Me
Just a place to journal, and think. Thinking that a nap before work would be great! Thinking not gonna get a long one in now! :(
Also, thinking how blessed and thankful I am for my family, and how I miss them when away, or working evenings!
