We all need to feel loved, but our greater need is to live peaceably with ourselves, our community, and the world.
“When you find peace within yourself, you become the kind of person who can live at peace with others.”
— Peace Pilgrim
Strive for Peace. Peace Within Oneself and with Others.
“Today I choose to live with gratitude for the LOVE that fills my heart, the PEACE that rests within my spirit, and the voice of HOPE that says…. all things ave possible.”
I am remembering a time when “What the World Needs Now Is Love” written by Hal David and composed by BurtBacharach back in 1965 during a controversial time period when the Vietnam War and many Americans didn’t agree with it.
Right now with all the turmoil and dissatisfaction, I believe What the World Needs Now is Peace.
God Bless. May your life be filled with love and peace. Thank you for visiting and sharing your time and thoughts with us. I appreciate y’all very much.
According to WP, I have been consistently posting on here for a 3 years, 5 months, and 24 days. In other words, my consistency streak is 1,270 days straight of posting one or more posts. So let’s not upset my consistency streak and go ahead and make my 1,271 consistent days post.
Looking through my photos for Dan’s Sturdy or ShakyI have found a few I’m sharing with y’all today.
From 2022 …
Coleman, at almost 3, walking on the Shaky Swinging Bridge as if it were Sturdy and not Shaky.
From 2023 …
Alona & Coleman standing on the middle rail of a Sturdy wooden bridge.
Now for two (2) from 2025 …
Coleman shakily hopping on one foot in Centennial Center.
Coleman Standing Sturdily on our Porch railing. I’m pretty sure his mom wouldn’t appreciate him standing on the railing even though it is quite Sturdy.
Good Day Everyone! I am a week late on my Nostalgia post, however, it was not Intentional to do so. I had intended to post about what brought Nostalgia to mind last week, but it fell by the wayside. Enjoying the last week of 2025 at the beach with family was more important.
While on our mini vacay at Myrtle Beach, we took an adventure south down to Murrells Inlet.Our Murrells Inlet adventure was Intentionally planned ahead and also sparked a bit of Nostalgia. You might wonder why Murrells Inlet would spark Nostalgia within me. You see, back in the early 1970’s my family took a trip down to Murrells Inlet with my dad’s sister and her family. We had some similarities, some differences between then and now. Memories are vague, but my dad’s old photographs (in my possession) bring those times back to life.
Alex Marina Murrells Inlet 1972
This past week we enjoyed Nature’s beauty on the water and on the beach. We had an amazing afternoon/early evening on the water on the Crazy Sister Marina’s boat. [Same pier, different boat]. I have pictures with my cousins and family on a Fishing boat for an afternoon of deep sea fishing. [Then a Fishing Boat, Now a Sightseeing Boat].
Back to the here and now, the Crazy Sister Marina was Full of boats, the sky was Full of birds, my view of the waters were Empty/Void of what we were supposed to be seeing. After all, we were on a Dolphin Sightseeing Cruise and I wasn’t able (nighttime visibility impairment) to see the Dolphins like Coleman and others were able to see.
