Our World!


Happiness is not having what you want. It is wanting what you have. – Unknown

Another Monday!! Time to share our worlds with one another!!  We’ve had a wild weather weekend here in Portland – pouring rain for 24 hours, then lots of wind, then blue skies again!! Amazing! But everything is blooming and there are colorful flowers and trees everywhere!!  Here are a few scenes!! Hope you enjoy! Have a great week!




Resolve to keep happy and your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulties.--Helen Keller





Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy. --Thich Nhat Hanh

I've had unexpected company so forgive me for being late to comment on your post for the day!!

    "Resolve to keep happy and your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulties."

    Thank you for posting that quote. I really, really needed to hear that today. I really want to hang it somewhere that I can see it everyday. But for now, I am going to text it to myself so I don't lose track of it. :) Have a wonderful day!!

    such beauty all around you! I don't understand how you, so much further north than Indiana, have so many blooms. Here's hoping our warmer temperatures produce such loveliness around here soon.
