Feelings of gladness today

Today i feel a bit better about things....As I was walking to take care of business errands and such i was struck with a feeling of gladness,thankfulness,just a sense of happyness i looked over at my Honey and i said you know i wish that i could have these feelings everyday he said to me what do you mean i said the feelings i am having of gladness and happyness and well just feeling good i wish i could feel this way all the time....I thought to myself why can't i why can't i feel this way in spite of the things that go on around me? all the bad things that happen i want to learn how to smile and be glad and happy in spite of those things, As i always say the weather today is so beautiful the leaves are still fallen off the trees today it is much cooler and breezy days like this i love. I can remember as a child i use to go outside on days just like this windy with my blanket in hand and a good book yes i loved to read even then and i would just sit and close my eyes and feel the wind and then i'd read my book :) I felt such peace and happyness on days like that....

Lastnight my friend Yael invited me to go to a womans meeting at the Temple here in Palmyra I walked around and said my hello's to people and had myself a little snack they were serving cakes and such for us to eat, I started to feel a little uneasy about being there as i am not mormon so i asked my daughter to ask Yael if we could get a ride home as she always does my sweet friend lol she talked me into staying for the meeting which i did :) I so enjoyed it they talked about compassion and kindness and not judging people on outward appearences and just loving one another i was very touched on the subjects that they were teaching about and i am glad that she invited us all to go and be apart of that....Right now kindness and compassion are what we need in our daily lives and i got it from my dear friend we love her so and are thankfull for each time that we get to see and spend time with her. 

So today i will be Glad,Happy,At Peace,Thankful & compassionate towards others....I thank God for another day of life i thank him for useing others to help me when i have needed it i know without him i can never make it thru my days.....Thank you Lord for all you do for me and my family.....
