What Is Lonnie's Room?

There is a room in our home to which I navigate more frequently than the others. It makes me feel secure, it is cozy, and it is quiet. From the peak of the room, there is a large rusty metal angel suspended by a very thin wire. It would apear as if the angel is hovering over me, protecting, and always present. The lighting in the room creates a virtual display of dancing shadows around the angel.

Every evening when I am in "MY ROOM", I think of what Luciano de Crescenzo once said, "We are all like one-winged angels. it is only when we help each other that we can fly."

A Penny For Your Thoughts

Napolean Hill said, "Thoughts are things and that whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, he will achieve.  Think well and you will grow rich."  Did you realized that everything in the world starts with a single thought?  The Declaration of Independence started with a thought as did the automobile, the TV, the computer,  and something as simple as a candle. The mind is incapable of not thinking and it is estimated that a person can have as many as 50,000+ thoughts per day.  Perhaps this is where the saying, "A Penny For Your Thoughts" came from....imagine how much money one could make from just thinking without effort? 
Today my thoughts embrace the beauty of the snowfall which enhances the holiday season. I laugh at the dog who tries to catch the snowflakes in her mouth; I relish the peace that encompasses my being; I enjoy the laughter the first snowfall brings to neighborhood children; and the beauty which graces the earth.  The simplest thoughts make life rich.
