Beauty and Ashes...

Heard Joyce Meyers give her personal story on her sermon tv show this morning.  I needed to hear it and her last words to all of us tv viewers was "don't give up."

     My faith has been sorely tested of late, this whole year 2011 always seems such a wash--Meeting new friends has been so sweet tho---It has been a constant source of beauty for me thru out---Thank you to my old and new friends>>>>Debbie with the golden eyes who gave me a sweet hug this morning at Vons. >>>> Sally who gave me words of encouragement at the one stop center..."You are to be commended,"  she expressed,,,,for being here every day, plugging away, trying not to let this young-sounding /new tennis elbow/ going -beyond- middle- age freighter  from going under.  And the lovely letter from dear SP---Thank you my dear!!
     I can't let my smile go down.   I must push and press and pop up again and again and again above so many (yes it is true) ashes, but beyond and above the ashes there is so very much beauty....
    So at this special being -with -your -loved -ones time it is good to think of sweet memories past, sweet people in the world, sweet creatures, and blessed birds, a roof over my head, a gorgeous central coast sunny day,  a little vegetarian food,  and a little frolic....
    Whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is true ....think about these things.....From St. Paul

And a big fat  " Happy Tofu Turkey Day"  to everyone!!!!
