An early evening sunset... God's artwork, right in front of my house!

A wonderful quote I needed to share with you:

"The pessimist complains about the wind;

the optimist expects it to change;

the realist adjusts the sails."

- William Arthur Ward

Looking into a glass of beer

The following is a quote by Nathaniel Branden.

I thought it was great and wanted to share it with you

instead of one of my little poems.

“There is overwhelming evidence that the higher the level
of self-esteem, the more likely one will be to treat others
with respect, kindness, and generosity.”

~Nathaniel Branden

Expecting a storm in Las Vegas, Nevada

The worst part of someone's day

Can be their reaction to what others say

We can't react and make ourselves so unhappy every time someone

says something we don't agree with or something we don't like.

All in One Cascade Dishwasher Soap Pacs

Let the wonder of life prevail

The wonder is in every detail

Imagine looking at life through "wonder" glasses?

How interesting life would be!

A closeup of a squished plastic water bottle.

Forgive and you are forgiven

Give and you will be given

What you do in life is gets reflected back to you.

I don't remember what this is!! What do you see?

If you are healthy

You are already wealthy

Be grateful for your health...it is a blessing!!

Pool water at the M Casino, Las Vegas

You'll really be happy through thick and thin

If you start your happiness from deep within

Your happiness has to start somewhere.

How about right inside of you?

A close up of my coffee table.

The world is as YOU are

Be a cloud or be a star!

It's YOUR decision to be sad or happy, not the decision of the way the world is!

What is that in the sky?

This picture was taken in front of my house.

The mind is sometimes like a runaway train

Slow it down to go back on the right track again

Sometimes we have so much on our minds and can't stop thinking.

It would help to stop the crazy thinking for a moment, breathe and slow down.

The inside of a Perrier water bottle

Your body is sacred

Don't fill it with hatred

I don't think we realize how negativity

and hatred are so unhealthy for our bodies.

Close up of colorful daisy

There's so much beauty in the air

Look around you everywhere

Learn to enjoy the beauty around you...

sometimes we never even look!

Picture of my Smile on a Stick Mask.

Laughing brings good health and happiness too
It’s good for everyone, especially you!


We need to laugh more...
"A merry heart does good like a medicine."

An electrical candle light in my house.

Each moment is precious, each moment is new

Each moment makes you, YOU!

Remember that each moment is a gift...open it with awe!

Beautiful Alaska

Breathe in, but don't hold on

Let it all go and the stress will be gone

If you can remember to take at least 3 long inhalations

and exhalations several times a day, you will notice

that your stress level diminishes.

My most beautiful Angel, Sonia - named after a dear friend who passed away

Angels to watch over us, angels to care

Angels to love us and always be there

I have a collection of angels

who watch over me day and night...

I sure am blessed!

Proud to be an American!

When I am filled with joy, the whole world can see
That the light in my body comes right through me

SURPRISE: I will be a new grandma next March!!!

Looking down into a plastic jar which contains a protein drink.


The spirit of power, love and self-control
Is given to us through the strength of our soul

Let's not forget that, in order to be spiritually strong,

we have to feed our souls with prayer and good thoughts

Another Nevada Sky...what do you see?

I could never be on this spectacular ride
Without having God as my perfect guide

Let God be your confidence.

Another one of God's beautiful paintings of the Nevada sky
- taken in front of my house...hmmm...I think I see a wing here!!

Gratitude will bring
Joy for everything

Imagine if we looked at life itself as a gift?
Imagine how much joy that would bring?

My son's feet

If you want to be grounded and complete
Try standing on your own two feet

Most of us use one foot to stand on rather than two.
If you put your weight into both feet and allow your feet to
carry the weight of your body, you will feel much more grounded!

Picture taken looking down into a glass of beer

Let your true self shine through

Then everyone will know it's you

You know who you are.
Let that goodness from within show outwardly...
it's ok to be ok!

A cloudy sky in Las Vegas, Nevada

Behind the clouds, the sun is always shining

Behind the problems, there's always a silver lining

Just as the sun is always there behind the clouds,

your happiness and learning are always available,

even if things are looking dark and grim.
