All dreams come true if we have the courage to pursue them.

YOUR FORUNE COOIKE

The best mentors are those

who have "been there"; they

are like the lighthouses that can 

help others navigate life's

challenges...

• I didn’t write this - but WOW does it speak to my heart!!! Worth the read.

  Barely the day started and... it's already six in the evening.

  Barely arrived on Monday and it's already Friday.

  ... and the month is already over.

  ... and the year is almost over.

  ... and already 40, 50 or 60 years of our lives have passed.

  ... and we realize that we lost our parents, friends.

  and we realize it's too late to go back...

  So... Let's try, despite everything, to enjoy the remaining time...

  Let's keep looking for activities that we like...

  Let's put some color in our grey...

  Let's smile at the little things in life that put balm in our hearts.

  And despite everything, we must continue to enjoy with serenity this time we have left. Let's try to eliminate the afters...

  I'm doing it after...

  I'll say after...

  I'll think about it after...

  We leave everything for later like ′′ after ′′ is ours.

  Because what we don't understand is that:

  Afterwards, the coffee gets cold...

  afterwards, priorities change...

  Afterwards, the charm is broken...

  afterwards, health passes...

  Afterwards, the kids grow up...

  Afterwards parents get old...

  Afterwards, promises are forgotten...

  afterwards, the day becomes the night...

  afterwards life ends...

  And then it's often too late....

  So... Let's leave nothing for later...

  Because still waiting see you later, we can lose the best moments,

  the best experiences,

  best friends,

  the best family...

  The day is today... The moment is now...

  We are no longer at the age where we can afford to postpone what needs to be done right away.

  So let's see if you have time to read this message and then share it.

  Or maybe you'll leave it for later....

  

WHY ARE WOMEN SO SPECIAL?

Mum and

Dad were watching TV when

Mum said, "I'm tired, and it's

getting late. I think I'll go to bed."

She went to the

kitchen to make sandwiches for the next day's

lunches.

Rinsed out the popcorn bowls, took meat out of the

freezer

for supper the following evening, checked the cereal box

levels, filled the sugar container, put spoons and bowls

on the

table and started the coffee pot for brewing the

next morning.

She then put some wet clothes in the dryer,

put a load of clothes

into the washer, ironed a shirt and

secured a loose button. She

picked up the game pieces left

on the table, put the phone back on

the charger and put

the telephone book into the drawer.

She yawned and

stretched and headed for the bedroom.

She stopped by the

desk and wrote a note to the teacher, counted

out some

cash for the excursion and pulled a text book out from

hiding under the chair. She signed a birthday card for a

friend,

addressed and stamped the envelope and wrote a

quick note for the

grocery store. She put both near her

bag.

Mum then washed her face with 3 in 1 cleanser, put on

her Night

Solution & age fighting moisturizer, brushed

and flossed her teeth.

Dad called out, "I thought you were

going to bed."

"I'm on my way," she said. She put some

water into the dog's dish

and put the cat outside, then

made sure the doors were locked and

the patio light was

on.. She looked in on each of the kids and

turned out

their bedside lamps and radios, hung up a shirt, threw

some dirty socks into the hamper, and had a brief

conversation

with the one up still doing homework.

In

her own room, she set the alarm; laid out clothing for the

next

day, straightened up the shoe rack. She added three

things to her

6 most important things to do list. She said

her prayers, and

visualized the accomplishment of her

goals.

About that time, Dad turned off the TV

and

announced to no one in particular. "I'm going to bed." And he

did...without another thought.

Anything extraordinary

here? Wonder why women live longer...?

'CAUSE THEY ARE

MADE FOR THE LONG HAUL.........

(and they can't die

sooner, they still have things to do!!!!)

God's very

own creation!

Have  a fun week... Stay safe... Love and Blessings Carol Anne..
