I Can and I Can't
Hi there cyber family..
It's been a while since I posted. I have actually been away from WA for a month. I had a medical procedure I needed to take care of and I just needed some time off. So now I'm back; but feeling a little disconnected still. So to start getting back in the swing of things and possibly help others too... I came up with a very simple list of what I can and can't do.
I CAN
1. I CAN learn and grow
2. I CAN endure
3. I CAN persevere
4. I CAN change
5. I CAN overcome
I CAN'T
1. I CAN'T remain static (must grow)
2. I CAN'T keep doing something that's not working.
3. I CAN'T change others (only myself)
4. I CAN'T despair
5. I CAN'T GIVE UP!!
These are very simplistic; but it's good to remind ourselves about simple things. See if you can come up with your own list. It helps me to become more centered to know what I can do and can't (or maybe what I won't) do.
Have a wonderful day!
Jeannie

Hi Vera. Thanks for the flowers. I missed you. How are you?I am better; but need to make some changes to diet and exercise to reduce inflammation.
That is beautiful, thanks. You will cope with this. Your knees, I guess? Or, whatever it is, God is on your side. Get better.
I am mostly OK. Don't like this season. But it's our life, and we must live it with joy... :))
There is no other way I want to live than in joy and thankfulness. I am so thankful that God is on my side. It is good to be back around friends like sweet Vera. Xxoo
When given the choice of being either positive or negative why wouldn’t we all choose positive, right? :)
Thanks Mike. Gotta take charge and make my health better. Been putting off some changes I need to make.

Very powerful, M'lady!
One thing I would add for myself in the "can't" department:
I can't bring back yesterday.
All the best with working with you "can" list!
I am easily confused, Queen Veronica! I’m not sure what that means unless you meant yesterday instead of tomorrow? I was going for five each but there are many more and of course it would vary from person to person. Good to talk to you. :) xxoo
Ooops...I meant "yesterday". I just made the correction.
Okay. I thought maybe there was a hidden meaning I wasn’t understanding. Lol.
Perhaps my subconscious was thinking about tomorrow, lol.
You may think about tomorrow; but you can only live in today. Lol.
