The little
things in life
are the most
important.
Nothing fancy,
nothing colorful,
nothing expensive....
....just the pure enjoyment of the free
things in life that are right in front of us.
As I get older, I guess my outlook on life is different than when I was a younger woman. Sometimes we all feel like just a little speck on the planet, but just remember that God knows how many hairs we have on our head - so that is a pretty darn important speck, if you ask me. To be loved like that makes this little speck in the sand very happy.
That's all.
**************
Note: I had to turn on word verification - SORRY GIRLS - because I've been enundated with hundreds of spam comments. Those WV's are tough on my eyes and I get flustered when having to type them in, however I had to do this for my blog until blogger can take care of the issue. I had over 200 comments left since yesterday - which is my no means a norm for me with my little blog - so it was a bit disappointing to see that they were mostly all links to some unknown sites, which I am sure were network pollution. If any of you are having the same problem, then you will understand.
Till next time...
Good morning Becky! It's been awhile since I've visited. I have some catching up to do. I LOVE this post. So sweet and serene.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet post! What beach are you at? I have had tons of spam comment in thelast couple of weeks.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful post. Love the pictures. Sorry you are getting spam. Hate the WV but understand.
ReplyDeleteBecky, this is such a sweet post. This time of year can be very hard, as you well know, when we are hurting. God knows and Loves us so much. I send you a hug.

would so love to be walking on the beach with you and those two cuties...thanks for the escape
ReplyDeleteIt's so true, isn't it??? It's easy to think that we're just one in a million.....while we are ONE IN A MILLION (and many more) to Him.... I love knowing that He knows how many hairs on are my head and I often chuckle about it since they're falling out like CRAZY...
ReplyDeleteHappy Day!

Becky your on the beach and I'm freezing my buns off here in Louisiana. LOL. Beautiful beach, and looks like Doogs and Fiona are having a good time. Very smart and sweet post. I love a challenge with words so the goofy words don't bother me. I don't blame you.
ReplyDeleteIt truly is the little things in life that make us the happiest. And speaking of little things, I thought of you today when I bought 3 vintage elves like the ones your mother gave to your brother. Yes, I still laugh when I think of your favorite elves going to your brother instead of you. :@
ReplyDeleteNow I'm going to see how good my eyesight is.
*I changed my comment setting from "anybody" to those with an account and that stopped my spam comments. Although I only had one or two a day.
We keep jars of sand from our travels to the beach in Michigan just to remind us of the value in life...beautiful post...smiles..Renee
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry you have so much spam. It is just crappy that they can't figure out a way to prevent that from coming through.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, your pictures and post are beautiful! xo Diana
Beautiful post Becky!!
ReplyDeleteI guess I didn't realize you had scotties! Are they not just the BEST dogs in whole world?!? I have three myself, McKenzie, Abbie and Munchkin....a Black, a Wheaten and a Brindle. I can't imagine life without them. Happy Holidays!
ReplyDeleteDD
I guess I didn't realize you had Scotties. Are they not the BEST dogs in the whole world! I have three - McKenzie (black, age 12), Munchkin (brindle, age 5) and Abbie (wheaten, age 4). I can't imagine life without one of those pointy eared pups!
ReplyDeleteHi Becky,
ReplyDeleteAhhh. A walk along the water's edge. How wonderful!
I often continually reminded that if I was the only one on earth God would have still sent His Son to redeem me. But, we are numbered as great as the stars in the sky and the grains of sand on the shore...We really are all precious in His sight.
Blessings, my dear friend,
Carolynn xoxo
