Expect good

That's what mom always says...expect good. And learn to recognize it in all of its forms. You would be surprised upon reflection to learn that you have very little bad in your life. And if you happen to be experiencing something not particularly to your liking..examine it and see what you need to learn. We do have lessons in life you know. No one escapes that. No one slips by without something to shape us and make us better. That's not bad. That's good when we learn from it and then, we move on when we demonstrate that we have learned what we need to and are the better for it. Trust. It really is all good, just as the saying goes.
And today, September 1, would have been my Dad's birthday were he alive. He left us too soon as did my mother. Dad, I still love you and cherish your memory. I always will.
