Thinking Positive
Regardless my best intentions to help myself by making conscious choices to be positive about life, there has never been a day when I have successfully contemplated the multitude of different ways things could work out for the best. I don’t seem to have any problem imagining a myriad of bad outcomes. Would it be possible to get myself to actually believe in a high probability of many different positive results coming at me in any given day?
I would be trying to counteract all those formative years as a Minnesota sports fan.
For now, I will be satisfied with looking out for at least one possibility that everything’s gonna be alright.
It’s Friday! There are plenty of ways this could be a really great day. I intend to remain open to the idea.
Dragonflies symbolize renewal, positive force and power of life in general with a sense of self that comes with maturity

Speechless. I am speechless. I am sitting in front of the computer and I have nothing to write. I guess that’s not speechless, is it? What would be the right word? I’m writeless? Let’s look at a picture today… I was absolutely surprised to find this in my yard this weekend. Cyndie says it was a gift from her friend. I’ve never seen anything like it in real life until now. It seems to be very happy with its new environment in our yard. I offer it here for your enjoyment this pleasant Monday morning. Enjoy.
An Apple Today
An apple a day may be good for a person, but something here seemed to find the leaves much more appetizing!

Some images don’t deserve to have words on them. No, that doesn’t read like what I meant to convey. Some images shouldn’t be spoiled by adding words to them. …That’s more like it.

It’s that time of year when the flowers in our yard are exploding with colors like a 4th of July fireworks show. They are showing up everywhere and if we don’t happen to get out and stroll through the yard each day, we risk missing some of the best of the displays. All I can do is take some photos when I am able and save them for when the blossoms are past their prime. Meanwhile, the birds, bees, butterflies and all other interested bugs will take full advantage of the wealth of flora when we aren’t around. I take solace in that idea, understanding the flowers don’t solely exist for show. Otherwise, it sure would be a waste of all that color around our home, for the limited traffic our gardens see.
What a Weekend!
My weekend was chock-full of activity. I’d love to tell you all about it, but it was so full, I haven’t got any time left to write. Here are a few images that have little to do with any of my activities, but reflect some of the beauty and bounty I was able to enjoy beyond the bike ride, two restaurants, a couple of movies, some household chores, watching the Tour, and catching a concert at the zoo, (don’t tell Judy I was so close to her, but didn’t have time to visit).
