This is a continuation of my Thankful list.  Weblog writing was not letting me complete.

Thankful for the depth of friendship that let’s me explore different subjects.  Thankful for being able to give so much that I like to.  Thankful to look further into my giving.  Thankful for my health.  Thankful for the abundance of people whom I have met through life.

Subject on T.V. - Giving - April 29, 2007

Written by patti on Monday, April 30th, 2007 in Thoughts.

Every where I have turned on the T.V. this week has been about giving.  American Idol’s two hour show was outstanding about giving.  Oprah does something weekly about giving.  MSN instant messenger has come up with a new way to give. 

A friend and I have looked at what we do in giving.  Is there more to do.  Yes, there is.  Daily giving is a tithing to all.  What have you given today?  Amazing how smiling at a stranger can be a small simple giving but does so much.  Wouldn’t be wonderful to see every one smiling all the time.  Some times we let things get in the way of our smiles.  Giving the children of the world is one of the biggest ways to give.  For a few dollars it is amazing what one person can do to give.  Our food banks are full at the holidays but what about the rest of the year.  Think how wonderful it would be that every time you go shopping you buy $2.00 of can food and what that can do to feed the youngsters of America.  These are the kind of conversations that my friend and I have had the past few days.  Really makes one think about how much they stretch a dollar to help someone else.  My Friend makes blankets for the homeless.  She gives away at least fifteen each year to the food bank.  She takes care of children and are also teaching them the giving.  They help with the blankets.

I am so thankful for the food I eat every day

Slipping through the day - April 27, 2007

Written by patti on Friday, April 27th, 2007 in Thoughts.

When I looked up at the clock and saw it was past midnight I knew one of the day slipping through the day had just happened.  Some how lots I wanted to do outside of work didn’t get done.  Don’t get me wrong because lots did get done.  A priority or two didnot.  Tomorrow will come so things do slip by.

 Ever meet someone that know matter what you, you can’t get the person to smile.  I go to a Subway shop at times where that has happened for over two years.  I think her face would crack if she truthly smiled.  Surprising enough she is the manager.  She does a great job but getting her to say hello and smile are not easy.  I decided not to say a word today and not smile.  She finally said hello.  Yeah a win.  Guess I will have to present her with some of my beautiful lilacs.  See if that gets a smile on her face.  I thought I gave up but after today I haven’t.  I know there is a beautiful smile under the guard.

Thankful for the beautiful roads I drove on.  All the flowers of spring.  The sunshine even when the wind is still blowing.  Makes me know the hotter temperatures are almost here.  Thankful for all the great people who have helped me at the cemetery to do with my brother dying.  Choosing a marker.  The smiles are always there at the cemetery or people who let you be what ever emotion.  Thankful to go there for the peace and quiet.  If you haven’t walked through a cemetery for a while it is always so peaceful.  Thankful for God and all his Devine direction.  And even his intervention at times.  Thankful for the beauty sleep and sweet dreams I about to get.

Psychic Patti - as I am known by my friends children that she takes care of.  Numerous other as well.
