It was such a pretty sky this morning at 6:45 a m. A gorgeous blue backdrop with one little, very bright, star shinning so perfect. The only star in the sky seemed to be telling me so. I took a close-up picture of it, but somehow those star pics taken on my close focus are never perfect. The true picture of the star was showing clearly all five points with perfect figure, but when I snap the camera the star seems to move a bit. At least you can tell it’s a star.
I was up early this morning to keep an early appointment for my son, Rick, at the society security office in Pampa, Texas. I had never noticed this lone star before. It really stood out from anything else. Rick had a blood clot to occur over the week-end and couldn’t drive. He is waiting for x-ray results, but the Dr. is almost sure it is phlebitis. He is in a lot of pain. We got back home in time for me to attend the luncheon at the Center. It was very nice with multiple salads, and chicken casserole. A delicious variety of ice cream layered with cake was the dessert. A nice crowd attended with two special clubs from local groups coming to have lunch before their meeting started. I always enjoy the food and fellowship when I attend the luncheons. I can also learn of those whom have been sick and even those whom have been placed in hospice care. It is sad, but something no one wants to miss. We all love our fellow members and grieve when we have to give them up. But their sweet memories remain with us, and that is a blessing deluxe. If some one don’t know already, it is such a wonderful feeling to have the loving support of many. I just can’t explain the feeling. God bless the senior citizens at The Center in Perryton, Texas.
We were honored with a nice rain last night. A slight wind, but no hail or wind damage happened. It is cool today and the grass is still green. No one has to tell us because we can feel the fall of the year in our bones. It takes some of our excitement away, but we look for other things to fill in the void. I can’t imagine living without a purpose. I know of many who do, and it tears up my heart. I will, even if it does no good, try with all my might to ignite a little fire in their bones. Living should not be all bad. I give praise to the thousands who give their life daily to help make someone else's life more pleasant. They deserve a great blessing on earth as well as in heaven. I don’t take others misfortunes well. I cannot pretend to not notice, yet I cannot tell someone I see their hardship and understand. What are we suppose to do? Go home and cry while praying for God to visit that one with his great abundance of love. I believe that is a sure help for many. My heart is heavy today after being so blessed earlier. I think this is the way God uses us the best. Make us happy, then make us sad. Thank you Lord for all manners of good and bad.
God Bless
