The very purpose of our life is happiness, which is sustained by hope. We have no guarantee about the future, but we exist in the hope of something better. Hope means keeping going, thinking, ‘I can do this.’ It brings inner strength, self-confidence, the ability to do what you do honestly, truthfully and transparently.  The Dalai Lama

All the photos will be posted on my FB page, but I'll just describe them here:

Day 1 -- "Springtime, finally" my planter with daffodils, tulips, and hyacinths in bloom.

So no one is going to join along with me, huh?
Day2--a picture of my dad's battery operated law mower that I took when he passed away.  When I use it I can still smell him sometimes.

I'm in!  Does it have to be a picture, or can it just be a feeling?

I took a picture today at my son's school...They have a beautiful garden with statues in it, and the afternoon light was hitting a statue of a grecian maiden staring down into a beautiful fountain that they have.  The inside of the fountain is painted blue, and in the afternoon the blue was a beautiful deep azure.  The grass around the fountain was a lush green, and in the background there are pink cherry or apple blossoms blooming on the trees.

They call this "the senior garden" and only seniors are supposed to walk in it, but I felt compelled to go in and take the picture.  I figured the students think of me as a "senior" anyway.

Welcome, Moonlighting!  If you go to the website: http://100happydays.com/
You can sign up and then post pictures thru Facebook, Twitter, etc.  I don't want to plug up this forum with photos so I just describe them.

The senior garden sounds beautiful!  Nice description...I can really visualize it.

I'll join in, but with descriptions not photos.

I was having a snooze on the sofa yesterday afternoon and I had obvious been snoozing too long. The dog tried to nuzzle my hand, and when that didnt work she got one off toys and plonked it on my tummy!  I got the hint and got up :)

Day 2

Watching Pony Club dressage and helping record scores - a first for me.  Maybe this time next year I'll be competing?

Day 2 (or maybe really my day 1...I missed yesterday):

A beautiful babbling brook surrounded by lush green wetlands and white blossoming trees.
