I wanted to say that I am sorry about the loss of your parents. I lost my parents a year and a half apart, so I understand how you must feel. I hope that memories of them are a blessing to you.
As long as our messes end up being fine... Nice entry.
And yes, local movie theaters were the thing in my much younger times and going there with the family or an adult was a highlight.
In remember turning 21. It was a good Birthday. You enjoy Birthdays the most when you are a kid. Mine is right before Christmas so I get double gifts. A good entry.
Oh well, we can’t win them all can we? I got disqualified last month. It’s all grist for the mill though.I think so long as we are happy with our story or poem that all that matters.
Prompt: Happiness is to hold flowers in both hands. Japanese Proverbs. Write about this quote in your Blog entry today.
I do love flowers but not cut flowers. I rarely buy flowers for anyone much preferring to buy a plant, something pretty which will last much longer than a bunch.
So happiness is holding flowers? I’d have to disagree with that statement. Happiness is much more fleeting. It can be felt when witnessing a child laughing, or when receiving a well meant hug from someone you care about or when getting an unexpected piece of good news. I don’t think we experience happiness each day, the best we may feel is contentment, satisfaction, maybe a moment of bliss when sitting down after being rushed and sipping a lovely cup of coffee or tea. Or soaking in a warm bubble bath and letting the stresses of day go for a while.
So I’d change the quote to ‘happiness is looking at beautiful flowers growing in the sunshine in their natural environment.’
