Open your heart to all these blessings
and let them flow through you,
then everyone you meet on this day
will be blessed by you,
just by your eyes,
by your smile,
by your touch,
just by your presence.

Thank you Susan for a beautiful reflection to start my day.
I'm in New Zealand on the other side of the world in the Southern Hemisphere - almost 8am on Saturday 12th.
It's Summer, hot and balmy and the temperature hardly dropped overnight - sleep was fitful.
After reading your quote and with God's help I will let my light shine today - thank you.

Happy Friday, Susan :)
Sometimes it's the simple things we can give that someone else needs the most.
Reminds me of my Mum who always encouraged me to smile because of the joy it gave people, especially older folk.
My dear Mum used to say 'A smile costs nothing and it will bless someone' so thank you for this reminder, Susan. May you be blessed today as you bless us.
through the blessing of coming here and finding you and your amazing arts, I smile.
