This quote is a great reminder to look beyond the obvious to see the real beauty in life.   We take so many things for granted when sometimes we just really need to stop and pay attention to life.

I’ve shared this quote before; but I wanted to share it again.  Sometimes we get so busy; we forget to appreciate all the wonders of our life.  Yesterday, my 5-year-old grandson was run around playing.  As he ran by me, he threw his arms around me and said, “I love you.”  Then, he just ran on by.  That was a beautiful moment!  A moment that I want to remember.

What moments are you going to remember?”

Thoughtful Thursdays

As part of my 2018 goal to Spread Joy,  I am sharing quotes, poetry, photos and sometimes just my thoughts on Thursdays — Thoughtful Thursdays.  My hope is that these posts will help me (and maybe others) focus on the joys of life.

Thoughtful Thursday Link Up

I’d love to have others join me.  It’d be wonderful to have a full-page of great quotes, poetry and photos to share.   Simply email me at  rainydayreflections2015@gmail.com your positive or thoughtful quote, photo or poetry along with your post link by 2:00 PM CST each Wednesday. We are working on spreading joy; so please stay positive.  I’ll combine everything and post on Thursday afternoon.    (You do not have to be a Word Press blogger or write a post to participate; but I will post your link if you choose to write a post.)
