life can be good...








Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower. 
~Hans Christian Anderson

so many quotes about "life".  it is what you make it, it's what happens when you are making plans, it is unexpected, it is what it is....etc.

in my five decades, there is one thing i know for sure.  life can be good in almost any circumstance because God has made it.

my friend erna told me once she had an elderly neighbor who greeted her every day with "isn't this just the greatest day you have ever lived?"  erna found it a little unbelievable.  i thought it believable.  why?  to live a good life is to savor all good things.  air, water, sunshine, rain, snow, grass, flowers, food, love,  movement, song, the absence of things that are bad, the presence of things that are good...

life can be good, if you choose to dwell in the land of good things. this i know, for i live in that place.  ; )

where do you live?  can you think in your heart how life can be good for you.....
