A New Direction??
By Mona Lease

Hi, all!! I've been hearing that a lot of people are dealing with a lot of things... depression, sickness, envy, etc. Some days - I think it might be just as good to turn off the tv... to turn off the computer and read a book... maybe Winnie the Pooh.

Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let the pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place. - Peace, Love, and Everything Else

Loyalty means I am down with you whether you are right or wrong, but I will tell you when you are wrong and help you get it right. - Marco Mayes

Sometimes it's better to just let things be, let people go, don't fight for closure, don't ask for explanations, don't chase answers, and don't expect people to know where you're coming from. - 3 am thoughts

When thinking about life, remember this: No amount of guilt can change the past. And no amount of anxiety can change the future. - Superhero Parents Uncensored

Be careful what you tell people. A friend today could be an enemy tomorrow. - Halos and Horns Fun Page

Your peace is more important than driving yourself crazy trying to understand why something happened the way it did. Let it go. - Healing Hippies

The best apology is changed behavior. - Expanded Consciousness

Back Home

If I had the power to turn back the clock,
Go back to that house at the end of the block.
The house that was home when I was a kid
I know I'd love it more now than I did.

If I could go back there at my Mother's knee,
And hear once again all the things that she told me.
I'd listen as I never listened before,
For she knew so well just what life had in store

And all the advice my Dad used to give,
His voice I'll remember as long as I live.
But it didn't seem really important then;
What I'd give just to live it all over again.

And what I'd give for the chance I once had,
To do so much more for my Mother and Dad.
To give them more joy and a little less pain,
A little more sunshine...a little less rain.

But the years roll on and we cannot go back,
Whether we born in a mansion or in a shack.
But we can start right now - in the hour that's here,
To do something more for the ones we hold dear

And since time in it's flight is traveling so fast,
Let's not spend it regretting that which is past.
But let's make tomorrow a happier day,
By doing our "good to other" - Today. - Author Unknown

I am pieces of all of the places I have been and the people I have loved. I've been stitched together by song lyrics, book quotes, adventure, late-night conversations, moonlight, and the smell of coffee. - Brooke Hampton

Sometimes you gotta remember everyone wasn't raised like you. - Peace, Love, and Everything Else

The crap you hear about me might be true or it could be as fake as the person who told you. - Rebel Circus

If you think their messy room is hard to look at, just wait until it's empty. - Peace, Love, and Everything Else

A liar's worst enemy is someone with a good memory. - Peace, Love, and Everything Else

And I saved what I think is the best...for last. Maybe it's all in how we look at things.

Pretty Ugly:
I'm very ugly
So don't try to convince me that
I'm a very beautiful person
Because at the end of the day
I hate myself in every single way
And I'm not going to lie to myself by saying
There is beauty inside of me that matters
So rest assured I will remind myself
That I am a worthless, terrible person
And nothing you say will make me believe
I still deserve love
Because no matter what
I am not good enough to be loved
And I am in no position to believe that
Beauty does exist within me
Because whenever I look in the mirror I always think
Am I as ugly as people say? (Now read from the bottom up) - Abdullah Shoaib

Remember the kiddies and our service people. Take good care of the furry and feathered ones out there. Be safe and healthy. See ya next time. Ever Toodles!!! MONA
