Birdies

There are many things in my day that happen that remind me of how wonderful my life is. Some of these things are small and some can be major but each one makes me appreciate how good God is. One of my favorite sounds is to hear the birds singing outside. Sometimes in the morning I will keep everything silent and just listen for the little songs that they sing. It will always bring a smile to my face. Today I was driving to the store and went my usual side streets. I had to stop and just watch all these birdies (close to 20) all bathing and drinking from a huge puddle in the gutter. I thought how sweet their life must be that they are able to bathe in filty water and still have their feathers ruffled and look like they are having a blast! It made me think that it's all how you view things, right?

Could we change our attitude, we could not only see life differently, but life itself would be different.

Katherine Mansfield

Human happiness consists in having what you want, and wanting what you have.
