"Don't like or not like something or someone just because someone else does or doesn't. Use your own mind to decide for yourself." by ?
"No one has the right to judge anyone except for God." by ?
"Sometimes it's ok to jump in head first." by Me
I believe that, as a parent, you should always make sure that your child (or children) know that they can come to you for anything. Make sure that they know that you aren't going to judge them or put them down for the mistakes that they may have made. They are only children and they are going to make mistakes. Just make sure that they know that you still love them and that you will help them any way you can to make sure they don't keep repeating mistakes. Also, be a part of your child's life. Always take the time to listen to them and to spend time with them. The more you do so, the more you will know about your child, and the less chances there will be for your child to fall into the wrong crowd. If your child is getting the love they need from you, then there is less of a chance that they will go looking for it in all the wrong places. I hope you all have a wonderful night. Take care and God bless!
Love,

"If you don't know what you're looking for, how will you know when you find it?" by ?
"Life doesn't always go as you plan. You just have to roll with the punches and make the very best of it." the first part I got from a line in the 'Dukes of Hazzard Reunion' show and the second part is by me.
"If you start acting like your enemies, then what makes you any better than they are?" another line from the 'Dukes of Hazzard Reunion' show.
One of my most favorite memories, when my husband and I were first together, was when he spontaneously pulled over the car we were driving along in, cranked up the radio, got out, came around to my side, pulled me out of the car, and started dancing with me! The song was 'Oh What a Night' by 'The Four Seasons' or maybe the version we heard was by 'Franki Vallie'. I am not sure, but either way it was so cool when my honey did that! I love it when he is spontaneous like that. He isn't that way all of the time, which I am glad. Being surprised all the time would probably get to be a little much. He does it just enough.
Spontaneity makes life exciting. If you don't have much of it your life or you don't have any at all, you should! It's alright to step outside of the box once in awhile and just have fun. It's one of the keys to longevity! Have a wonderful night. Take care and God bless! Now, go do something that is spontaneous and fun. (Don't hurt anyone when doing so though.)

"Encourage creativity." by ?
"If the option isn't there, it can't be chosen." by Me
"Do something for someone else without expecting anything in return." by ?
I believe that being happy is more of a state-of-mind than anything else. I believe if a person is determined to be happy, then they will be no matter what is thrown at them. The sad thing is that there are a lot of people out there that are determined to be unhappy. They seem to thrive on drama. They want everyone to feel sorry for them. I don't. I can't feel sorry for people that don't even try to make their lives better. That don't even try to make their lives happy. I just don't like 'poor-me' people. Everyone has their problems. It's how they deal with them that shows what they are really made of. Perseverance or mush. What are you? Are you made of 'perseverence' or 'mush'? I like to think of myself as being made of 'perseverence'. Life is to short to be a steaming pile of mush! Take care and God bless!

"I believe a person needs a new adventure every now and then so boredom doesn't set in. So, what's your next adventure going to be?" by Me
"One of the best things in life is that first bite of a chocolate chip cookie shortly after being taken out of the oven." by Me
"Sometimes a person needs to take a break from the real world and lose themselves in a good book."
by Me
Sometimes I think we forget about what is most important in life. Such as our family, our faith, and our health. I believe if a person has all of those in working order, then they are doing better than most. I believe we all take too much for granted. We complain about everything that we don't have, instead of just being grateful for what we do have. Seriously, why do we believe that we deserve more if we aren't grateful for what God has already given to us? Makes no sense to me. Would you want to give anything else to an ungrateful person? I know that I wouldn't. Hope you all had a wonderful day! Take care and God bless!

"Turn your 'I wil make my dreams come true someday' into I'm going to make my dreams come true today!" by Me
"Sometimes, all a person needs to not give up, is for just one person to believe in them." by Me
"You're never to old to act like I kid." by ?
I am going to focus on my last quote 'you're never to old to act like I kid'. My husband and I took our kids to Disney World this last April and we had as much fun as our kids did! (some of the time we may have been having more!) I don't think that my husband and I will ever grow up. We have way to much fun having fun like our kids! Now, we still take care of our 'grown-up' responsibilities, but if you live life with a serious attitude I don't believe that you are going to live a very long life and if, for some odd reason you do, it's not going to be much fun. You are only given one life to live. Live it to its fullest. Relax and have fun! You'll be glad you did. Love to all. Take care and God bless!
Love,
nm Carey
P.S. Go watch a funny Disney or Pixar (or whatever cartoon) movie and laugh out-loud like a kid. Remember not to care what others may think when you do. It is 'your' life, so live it 'your' way!

Hey everyone, it's me again! I just wanted to say that I hope that you all enjoyed this beautiful day. Also, if you live where the sky was clear tonight, I hope you took the time to look up at the beautiful night sky! Take care, God bless, and don't forget to take a look at tomorrow's sunrise and sunset!

I apologize for not getting a blog up last night so I am going to put more quotes and two thoughts down tonight. I hope everyone is well. Take care and God bless!
"You know when you are with the right person when, even when you think you're looking your worst, they still think that you are beautiful." by Me
"Anger is only one letter short of danger." by ?
"If you are against you, then why should you expect anything less from others?" by Me
"When you wear pretty panties it helps you to feel more pretty." by my friend Carla's old school friend
"The best thing is to be pretty on the inside, but it's nice to look pretty on the outside too!" by Me
"Always take time to look around at all the beautiful things God has made for you and let him know how grateful you are."
There was this certain person that upset me. She had done some not so nice things. A friend of mine told me that I should say something to her, get that last word in, but I told her that anyone who treats people the way she does can't be happy. I am happy. What good would it do me to kick a person when they are already unhappy?
I have worked with children and elderly people. Funny, both have a lot in common! Now, I am not trying to demean the elderly in anyway. It's just that they, as do children, require a lot of patience, time, and respect. They are going to repeat, sometimes a lot, they wil probably even ask a lot of questions, but you just smile and answer the questions, over and over, again as if it was the first time you've heard it.
