freedom, and B/W Sunday...

Freedom isn't the ability to do what you want

Freedom is the ability to do, what you ought to do


and this year, don't get bogged down with worries and anxieties....enjoy your life!  have fun! 

but do the right things morally.......what's best for your family.......

leave yourself behind and follow Him with abandonment......He knows the way.......

life can be SO HARD sometiems, but let it go...........

xo + happy blessings,

    I feel that you and I are soul-sisters through and through. Yes, there are differences, but I feel so much of what you write pierce me to the heart, as if you had read my personal journal. I read here so many times without commenting, but I know you don't mind, because you are writing this for you...not me.
    It is so important that we live life in an authentic way. A real way...our own truth. I feel that this is exactly what you do. It is the only way to live. It is the only way to have joy.
    Thank you for you!

    Those are such true words, Anne Marie. How often we forget to follow HIM. When I do things my way, not HIS way, things get all screwed up and I don't feel right inside. I need lots of reminding, but your words ring so true. Your little girl is precious, and your little cowboy is, too! He looks almost like my little baby boy, who is also adorable, by the way!! You don't even realize how much your words add a positive note to my day, and to many other people's, too. Have a blessed week. ♥

    Dear Anne Marie,
    So very true! beautifully written!
    I love your photo's of your little cowboy, his face is priceless. I think I could just kiss his little cheeks off.. My Grand-daughter and Grandson were visiting us this weekend and I think I must have kissed and hugged them every moment I could. I think the spirit of a child is so pure and sweet it just brings so much life into a room..My Grandson loves his boots too! his papa bought them for him (Ty picked them out himself) so darn cute.
    Have a sweet day and big hugs,
    Elizabeth

    Hi,

    I came to your blog via another that was showing a black and white image for your black/white Sunday.

    Do you have a button for it?...do you do this every Sunday? I'd like to participate but don't see that it's set up to visit others that are sharing.

    Thanks so much,
    Stephanie ♥

    PS: I've added your blog button to my list of kind and creative souls. ♥
