It rained today and there was a lot of hail too. The hail tore great big holes in my hostas. It is simply disastrous but as I've said many a time before, Mother Nature has her own ideas. Sometimes you just have to roll with the punches. That's a little bit like life. How well do you come back from the small misfortunes that lead you to stumble through the darkness? How about the big stuff that rips through your life like a tornado? Do you fold? Do you cower? Do you get up and manage to just make do . . . or do you allow it to break your attitude and your very being, pushing you to grow into a new and better individual? How do you find your joy amidst the pain and turmoil? So far, and I'm no expert mind you, I've found that YOU don't - but God can do it for you and He will if you allow Him. So, all that being said, if you have big holes torn in your life allow God to remake you into something more than you are today. Just stand back and allow Him to show you where HE wants you to be. He can take the big holes and fill them, can take the disasters and turn them into miracles and turn the misfortunes in your life into the joy of peace, contentment and satisfaction.
This morning I found out Ms. Rhode Island Red is my new layer!! Finally caught her sitting. She is now laying in the same nest as Queenie. I don't particularly care what box they lay them in as long as the two of them get along! So far so good. Then, this afternoon I went out to check on my girls and had another egg. That's 3 today and all in the same nest. Come on girls!!!!!

AuthorMy name is Nina. Southern Indiana has been my home since 1952. I've been a legal secretary most of my adult life and for my leisure time I enjoy everything connected to the world of herbs and cooking is almost like a "fever". I am also quite opinionated but try not to push my opinions on others. My family is grown and I'm left with a wonderful hubby sharing life with me. I'd guess you'd say my passion is living that life to the fullest. Archives
