Of course this is rose-colored, but I love the happiness depicted here. Even shopping outings can be fun when viewed with the right attitude! Do we really make an effort to enjoy and savor each moment of our day, or do we just "endure?" 
Of course, there will be "non-fun" things in life that we would be silly/seriously foolish to try to make happy ("There's a time for laughter, and a time for crying..."), but I'm talking about the things that we can change with our attitude. 
Never cared for ironing? Maybe next time you can sing hymns while you do it, or play an uplifting CD, or think about how grateful you are to have electricity, and an iron, and clean clothes to iron (there are thousands of people all over the world who don't have any of those things!)...

Thoughts or comments? I'd love to hear them!

  1. So true! There are so many things I take for granted. It is so importuned
    to remember to give the Lord thanks for everything and when you do He really opens your eyes to all the blessings He has pored upon you!

    In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 1 Thess. 5:18

  2. It looks like the cover to one of those little golden books from a long time ago. *sigh* Brings back memories of before the libraries "updated" their inventories.

  3. Thanks Elisha.

    It is so very true that we take so many things for granted. I often think of how blessed I am and how I should be grateful to the Lord for His blessings.

    Thank you for posting.
