EVERY DAY IS A GREAT DOGGIE DAY & STAY AWAY FROM THE TINY SQUARE BOX!




I tell you what, that Caity is something special!  I learn life lesson from Caity the dog quite often.  You're thinking, "What new feat has Caity the Wonder dog done now in her biased owner sight?"  I know, I think quite a bit of my little dog and hardly cease to tell any and all about her many extraordinary qualities.  For example, every morning I take Caity out of her crate to go outside, she is so excited.  She's got her doggie smile on, she dances, she lavishes everyone and everything in sight with doggie kisses, and she tears through the house as if to say, "This is going to be a great doggie day!  I have often thought Caity would make a wonderful addition to our praise and worship team at church. She'd tell the audience, "Everybody stand to your feet, hug and kiss you neighbor, greet them with a smile, get excited for the Lord, then run around the  sanctuary and express the joy of the Lord in you!

We have a great praise and worship team already.  Of course, after adding Caity, it could be said, "That HHC worship team sure has gone to the dogs!"  But that would be a true compliment!  Well, I'm not so sure how they would take that, so maybe we'll think on it more before putting it in the suggestion box that Caity be allowed to join!

I'm not much on doom and gloom, there is enough of that going around and my life decision is to not dwell too much on it.  I am learning to pray about things going on in my world and then turn things over to God more and more.  Sometimes I slip up and have to back track myself and correct my thoughts and words, but that's O.K. I'm a work in progress.  I once read a book about Nelson Mandela where he says  he always leaves himself the option to change his mind.  He was criticized for changing his position in his own life and as South Africa's first black President.  But he never let that deter him from changing his mind about something. Its not about approval, its about the personal journey and not letting yourself be confined to a tiny  square box created for you by others.

That's all so far today, but the day is far from over.  I'll add more as the day goes on and re-post if something unique or funny happens.

COME TO THE PURPLE DOOR again and we'll see what's shaking in world at that time.  Until then, FLOWERCHIC.
