For so many of us, Monday seems filled with too much to do, too many things to worry about and the beginning of a long week ahead. Here’s another perspective to consider:
The Blessing of Your Life
The blessing we are given, begin with each new day
wondrous things can happen brightening the way.
*
The laughter of our children, the greeting of old friends,
this day is ours for molding, from beginnings to the ends.
*
With the start of each week, a gift has been received,
labor hard, laugh and love but mostly be well pleased.
*
“Life is a joy, your choice to make the best of each day you are given –
which is a blessing, in and of itself, to be cherished.”

My wish is for you to have a wonderful week ahead. Take time to be grateful for that which you do have.

The Why About This 
I am grateful for each day given me. Have a fabulous week Penny! 🙂
Thank you LuAnn, and you as well. Might we be viewing some creative prose soon, dearest friend and extra sister too? 🙂
That’s awesome Penny 🙂 Thank you. Have a great week my friend
And you also Alastair, dear friend of mine! 🙂

… I am grateful for the day, Penny. And glad to have found you again! It’s been a while!
I’m glad I’ve been found again also and so pleased you’re grateful for the day. Have you been taking care of yourself?
Oh, yes. I am doing my very best. Trying to keep stress-free and healthy.
Fantastic! Good to hear this and you are happy too?
Wow – good question. I think I would be happier if I were able to “accomplish” things. I need to re-think my accomplishments these days…
It can be tough. I knew this one lady (I envied her actually) she raised a bunch of children on her own, worked her way through college, became a professional psychologist and told me when she was at a loss of what to do, she’d clean! Anything and everything. Cleaning was her way to balance herself with her emotions. I never forgot her but I realized (I am so not a clean freak) that each of us has “something” action oriented that we can do to help balance ourselves. You might look to see what your balancing method might be! Just a thought, albeit a long one, LOL!
Wishing you a wonderful week. We saw a super rainbow today in the sky…. I quite like Mondays, they are better than Fridays for me…. 🙂
Thank you my dear friend. Wishing the same for you, Ute. Oh cool, I love rainbows so much! I am glad you enjoy your Mondays, start’s the week off so very well! 🙂
In fact, I love weekdays because I some time to do my work. On weekend, I can’t concentrate and do my work. Or else, my husband will complain.

Well, alright then. Happy Monday to you Yoshiko! 🙂
Happy Monday to you too, Penny, do you like Monday?
I love Monday, the beginning of a whole new week where wonderful things might just happen, Yoshiko.
I see. Seems that you and I have the same preference.
