Aging Gracefully... but how??


Questions after I made a few phone calls to the elderly...

Where am I?
Who are you?

How did I get here? How did I get this way?

Where is my home?
Who is coming to see me?

How did this happen to me?

What is going to happen next?
Will I forget everyone I ever loved?

How will I take care of myself?
How will I pay my bills?

Will my memory ever come back?
Am I losing my mind?

Will you still love me?

"Friends are the Bacon Bits in the Salad Bowl of Life."

"A new friendship is like an unripened fruit - it may become either an orange or a lemon"

"Friendship is like a popsicle on two sticks, when the friendship breaks, so does the popsicle, making everything a mess"

The Hiding Place


Romantic love is mental illness. But it's a pleasurable one. It's a drug. It distorts reality, and that's the point of it. It would be impossible to fall in love with someone that you really saw.”

"I keep learning that the secret of being happy is doing things for other people."



Thank you Lord, for the precious friendship.

He who has no love has no knowledge of God, because God is love. 1 John 4: 8

TWO GLASSES OF WINE.....

TWO GLASSES OF WINE.....
When things in your life seem almost too much to handle,when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 glasses of wine...
A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly,he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.
He then asked the students if the jar was full. . .They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with an unanimous 'yes.'
The professor then produced two glasses of wine from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.
'Now,' said the professor, as the laughter subsided, 'I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things; your family, your children, your health,your friends, and your favorite passions; things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.'
The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house, and your car. The sand is everything else; the small stuff.
'If you put the sand into the jar first,' he continued, 'There is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life.If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you.
''Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups.Take your partner out to dinner. Play another 18. Do one more run down the ski slope.There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal.Take care of the golf balls first; the things that really matter.Then the pebbles. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.'
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the wine represented.
The professor smiled. 'I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of glasses of wine with a friend.'

A Sketch A Day: 單要事奉他。路4:8


呼求那位「從不為自己爭名」的耶穌,又求祂幫助你愛祂,而不是羨慕祂的作為;求祂幫助你尋求祂,而不是追求個人的成就。
