It’s just what one does. Going through the motions of life. Thriving is loving what you are doing and looking forward to the next moment. Thriving is when you want to share what you are doing with other people and include them in what you are doing. I have to decide whether I am surviving or thriving and work on it. It’s my responsibility. That is where my faith comes in. Read More6 Reply Linda1 year agoLindaThat reading the morning news is making me feel tired, and sick, and hopeless.

Frozen peaches, a half frozen banana, two teaspoons of peach yogurt, and some plain almond milk make a GREAT smoothie. 5 Reply Maeve1 year agoMaeve? 1 Reply Trish1 year agoTrish*I was reminded that I get “filled to the brim” by attending church at my beautiful parish *There are so many people that love me *Eating seconds of spaghetti is totally decadent.
