~contentedness~


Contentedness will not come from being more organized, sleeping longer, being a better wife or friend or mother, having a better home, having more time to yourself, or whatever it is you think might help.

(Although I was pretty content here:)
Contentedness is learned in the process of daily accepting life as God gives it to you, and adjusting your expectations to life's limitations.
~Seasons of a Mothers Heart, Sally Clarkson

Content-Regardless

I awoke this morning to a view I did not like.
It's white.
And blowing.
And blustery and gloomy.

It was a mere 2 days ago, and my kids were pulling me around the yard showing me blooms, bulbs, and shoots of green that were finally poking up through our dry dirt:



Now...here is where those new beauties lie:


What I need to concentrate on today:
"In whatever situation (or Province) I am in, therefore learn to be content (and not wish I was somewhere back in warmth)."
Guess we are all settling down with good books today:)

Hope you all have a wonderful day, whether you have sun ...or snow!!
