This came to me in an email about breast cancer (thanks Ruth!). I thought it deserved to be shared repeatedly because it's a great description of how to live life. (I just love when I find "directions" for how to live!)
Life is too short to wake up with regrets..
So love the people who treat you right..
Forget about the ones who don't.
Believe everything happens for a reason.
If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands.
If it changes your life, let it.
Nobody said life would be easy,
they just promised it would be worth it.
I really have made the decision to surround myself with people I love, who are encouraging, positive and joyful! Life is just too short to spend time with people who criticise, drag you down and are negative.

I've got a question about something I've observed the last 2 days when I've been out and about ... all the gas stations I've seen have bumped their price up to $3.29. I'm talking ALL of them, like maybe 9 or 10 different gas stations. NEVER have I seen the same price like this before. I'm also a little outraged that my favorite station jumped from 3.09 to 3.29 OVER NIGHT! Is there something going on I don't know about. Have they all conspired together? It is bizarre!!! (BTW - how much is the gas where you are?)

This is a wonderful blog about raising children. It's not the usual view point about how wonderful motherhood is and I love the honestly this Mom shared.

Here's another blog post that I related to about how self critical scrapbookers are often with their work. Why we compare ourselves to other talented women who have completely different styles from ours and we let their creativity dry up ours, instead of embracing the differences. For the most part, I've accepted that my style is "simple". I don't like adding lots of bulking embellishments and rarely scrap with just one photo on a sheet of 12" x 12" paper. It's just not me and that's OK (most of the time). Please share this with all your scrapbooking friends!

Guess this is a good place to end this post. I hope you've enjoyed the variety today of all the different topics.
Wishing you a peaceful Sunday and GREAT week!
XOXO,
