THEIR PLACE IN THE SUN

"You seem to sigh a lot," I said. "Do you realize this? "I should have counted the number of times I heard you sigh during this conversation. Are you depressed?" She replied, with yet another deep sigh, "Yes, I suppose I am! I couldn't say what I am depressed about, but, (another sigh), it should be ok..."

 

 

 

Someone close to me once said, you have a choice. You can choose to be happy and grateful for everyday, or you can go through life with eyes wide shut and make your choice to focus on the things that aren't going right for you! I most always choose to be happy. There are two things that make me really, really happy....Kitties and beautiful gardens.....I think this is one place where they can choose to be happy....their place in the sun!

"In the garden I tend to drop my thoughts here and there. 

 To the flowers I whisper the secrets I keep and the hopes I breathe. 

 I know they are there to eavesdrop for the angels."

And I find sufficient purpose for my day."
