I am totally a believer in "you're as old as you feel" or rather "the power of positive thinking," as found in scripture:
Finally, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable- if anything is excellent or praiseworthy- think about such things. - Philippians 4:8
Why do we spend so much time thinking about what can go wrong? Or how bad off we are? Why not spend more time thinking how great things can go- because we're children of God? And "bad off?" I really don't know too many people who are not exceptionally blessed.
How do I feel now that my daughter's engaged? I feel exceptionally blessed! Especially that she's found such a godly young man to spend her life with. I can hardly wait to officially call Josh my "son," but he's already my friend.
How cool is that?
very cool. very very cool.
ReplyDeletei hear ya on that one! it kind of goes along with having abd days. i dont have bad days, i refuse to. i may have a few bad minutes, but a day? pfft...even being told i wasnt graduating didnt cause me to have a bad day. just a bad few minutes. so yeah- think good things...especially about getting old.
