Today
is the first day
in
the rest of your life!
~
~
So go for it!
Live, Love, Do and Be, all that you can!
These are personal decisions we make
on how we will greet and live within
each new day we awaken to.
*
Regardless of our current situation,
we, each of us, individually, make the final choice
on how we are going to think and feel about ourselves and others,
And based on that, what we will accomplish in this day.
*
Make today the best day you can make of it!
Your choice, Always!
*
Never forget, you are loved!

The Why About This 
Another post that really speaks to me. I cannot tell you how often I have reminded my brother that he can make the choice to have a happy life. It seems sometimes we need to take our own advice. 🙂
Well, since I make no mistakes myself, LuAnn, I have no idea what your referring to, lol. Well maybe I resemble the remark a little bit every now and then. And then I remind me of how lucky I am to have another day and so it goes! What’s that saying “I know you said life wouldn’t be easy, but you didn’t mention how “hard” it could be sometimes!” I think that’s summing things up! 🙂
Take Care Penny.. Always get out on the good side of the bed!!!
You also Lisa, Are you reading my mind right now Lisa? This was eerie. I was just think about you and where you live. and this comment popped up. How’s the weather over there doing?
So true, even in the worst of circumstances there is some measure of choice. Have a great week dear Penny! xx
Hi Ruth, you also, have an excellent week and take care of you my friend! xo
Great words of encouragement for the week ahead ..and for every day there after… lovely share…
Thank you bulldog! Have a wonderful week.
Morning dear, Penny!
How beautiful these words of encouragement are! Have a great week. Hugs to you…:) Paula xx
Thank you! Good Morning Paula! What time is it over there right now, I know it’s different times in different parts of Australia, so I’m trying to get a feel for it! xxxxx
It’s 12.20pm on Monday. Lunch time!! Lol hugs xxx
Okay, good I can synchronize my clock now! Thanks! 9:20 pm, Sunday night here. How’s tomorrow looking? 🙂
Hahaha! Sunny yet a little cool. Wow! we are in completely different days. That feels so strange! Lol hugs xxx
Strange, yet cool! 🙂 xx
Today is always the first day of the rest of my life! I thank the universal spirit every morning that I wake up and I know it will be a good day…Loved this post Penny!
I think almost from the first time you and I become blogging friends (and then special blogging friends) I understood that about you, Barb. It shines through the words you write, the way you share yourself with others and your beautiful photography. It doesn’t surprise me at all that you wake up and feel this way each day, my dear friend. Thank you for being a my friend but mostly for being you! All my love, Penny xo
Amen to that!
xx 🙂 🙂 xx
RoSy you always bright my day (or in this case, evening!) Just thought I’d share! 🙂 xo
Right now I only celebrate each breath my husband is able to take…we are back at square one! Tomorrow – Day 32.
Sharla do you have family with you now?
Not at the present time. Our middle daughter, Nicole, stayed with me the past 9 days. She left this morning to go back to her family and of course, work. Had to fly her home since she lives near Miami. Our youngest daughter may be coming later on this week. It has been tough since we moved two years ago. Left my friends of over 30 years behind. My closest friends now are in my virtual world and they have been AWESOME! Thank you for your thoughts and prayers!
Please contact me anytime you want or need to Sharla, I’m here. I am continuing prayers for him and sending positive energy your way dearest friend, hang on! Much love to you this evening! xoxo!
Lovely words Thanks penny much appreciated..
Take care
You are most certainly welcome, and take care of you too!
Reblogged this on The Matter of Life and Death.
Again my sincere thanks to you!
I like the way you phrased that. I agree. It is the first day of the rest of our lives. Well, tomorrow will be for me as today is nearly over 😉
I am going to try and accomplish something new tomorrow 🙂
Sleep well my friend, I hope your Monday is a great one for you!
Thank you Penny. 🙂 Hating mornings at the moment. Pain seems to want to let me know it’s there every day at the moment
