Rosemary's Blessing:

I shall no longer allow

negative thoughts or feelings

to drain me of my energy.

Instead I shall focus on all the

good that is in my life.

I will think it, feel it and speak it.

By doing so I will send out

vibes of positive energy into

the world and I shall be grateful

for all the wonderful things it

will attract into my life.

Positivity Pledge given to me by Sandra Pratt

Remember Patrick, Rosemary's grand nephew who broke his thigh bone and for whom we were praying each week?  He is now walking and running, though with a slight limp which will disappear shortly.  He sleeps in the arms of his mom, Kelly, and his dad, Brian.  He is worn out chasing his 6 cousins.

Just in case you like to feed the ducks and pigeons…  Sign at the entrance to the community of Hilton Head Plantation.   The numerous man made lagoons often have a resident.  One stopped bike and walking traffic on a bike path I was using one nice winter afternoon.  They love to sun bathe.

Rosemary's Blessing:

O God, when I have food,
help me to remember the hungry;
When I have work,
help me to remember the jobless;
When I have a home,
help me to remember those who have no home at all;
When I am without pain,
help me to remember those who suffer,
And remembering,
help me to destroy my complacency;
bestir my compassion,
and be concerned enough to help;
By word and deed,
those who cry out for what we take for granted.
Amen.

Rosemary's Blessing:

In recognition of Veterans' Day 11/11/16

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place: and in the sky
The larks still bravely singing fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead: Short days ago,
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved: and now we lie
In Flanders fields!

 

Taken from IN FLANDERS FIELDS
By Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae

Composed at the battlefront on May 3, 1915 
during the second battle of Ypres, Belgium
