Sometimes you are Haymitch Abernathy and other times you are Gale Hawthorne or Peta Mellark. There are also days when you are Katniss Everdeen. I hope to win the day-to-day Hunger Games. I just hope there is no President Snow to deal with. May the odds be ever in our favor.

A Hope For Us All On Wednesday

Generation to Generation
There comes a time when the youth of a society must step up to make a contribution. As some generations age they aren’t able to do the same things they could when they were younger. It’s also important for previous generations to mentor the youth of the day to prepare them to take charge and do good things in the world. The contributions of all generations should be honored and appreciated. There comes a time to pass the torch from one generation to another so the work of community will continue and life will go on.
Death Is Life
As you get older in life you realize your own mortality and the mortality of those who you love and admire. No one lives forever and because of that fact you will make visits to funeral homes and the like more often. You will also go to funerals of people have known for years and for just a little while. Over the years I have paid my respects to many special people who are now in the company of saints. Death is a part of life and there are different ways to celebrate the lives of those who have passed on. Some who pass on you expect to because of natural causes or declining health while others die unexpectedly. No matter the circumstances there is shock, pain and great sadness that goes along with the whole experience of someone leaving this life, this world. It was not my intent to be morbid or sad here but to share some experiences of a person who loves many and has hated to see them go on to eternity and to be with their creator. Death is life or its a part of it anyway.
Rambling On Frustration
Sometimes you gotta step away from a situation that is frustrating you. Things in life get to the to the point where you just need a break from it. A nice stroll is a good way to take a breather. Whatever has you in a tizzy doesn’t have to make you crazy. My friends the best way to be your best is to put a stop to the frustrations of your life before they get the best of you.
A Great Philosophy, Words To Live By
A fellow blogger has this as her philosophy…
Keep my chin up, my mug full of coffee, and have a day-by-day perspective.
I agree with this. Doing these things can help one get through the day. It’s a simple thing to keep ones chin up, have a mug full of coffee and live life in the moment. This is pretty good stuff!
