I have a favorite saying: life has run away with me. Sometimes our best laid plans get blasted by grim realities, personal responsibilities and demanding health issues. We can dream, plan, and forecast, but sometimes that train derails.Attention to something else demands our energy. So we put the plans aside to take care of immediate business. And when the coast is clear we begin again. That's where I am today. Beginning again. To blog, to paint, to muse.

I am sorry to hear about your friend who passed away. It is always tough. Trains do derail for many reasons, but the path the train was taking is still clear. It is always something you can look forward to for tomorrow. May it inspire you.
All too, true my friend. Condolences on the loss of your friend.
This quote came in my inbox yesterday that I am finding helpful
“Every morning is a fresh beginning. Every day is the world made new. Today is a new day. Today is my world made new. I have lived all my life up to this moment, to come to this day. This moment...this day...is as good as any moment in all eternity. I shall make of this day...each moment of this day...a heaven on earth. This is my day of opportunity.”

Must say Kathryn your post has and Nanci remarks have really touched me. My father who is 90 shared with me a number of coins he has been saving for almost 80 years. One was a thin mercury dime with the markings barely visible. Yes each day is a fresh beginning. As my dad would say, "Let's rejoice and be glad in it".
Thank you, my friends. We rejoice and are "glad in it."
Yes, let's be grateful for each brand-new day. Each one brings new experiences and wonder! Hope you can keep your head above the clouds and see the sunshine, Kathryn.
Thanks Denise for the reminder. Carpe Diem.
