It doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t judge others or expect never to be judged ourselves. It does mean that we should apply the same measure of kindness and consideration of circumstances to others as we would wish them to apply to us.
One of the things I appreciate about the ups and downs of it all is that UP is both a grand thing entirely and a tough old slog or a concern, and DOWN is both a breezy joyride and a depressing turn of events or a concern.
I’m on the 2023 roller coaster. Wheels clank against the rails as we climb up, up up. I can’t wait to see what’s on the other side of the crest of the track. I’ll do my best to throw up my arms, shriek, and enjoy the ride.
A happy person doesn’t need to be merry at all. Happiness is sitting at peace in the moment and being grateful for what is. Happy Christmas.
Here’s your challenge for the day. Turn some hate into love. You might laugh, and you’ll for sure find some gratitude.

Yay! Cute and inspirational.
Thank you. It makes me feel happy to think about it, and these days we need plenty of those kinds of things around.
A happy face on a pothole is about as good as making lemonade out of lemons – ha!
We have few potholes in Florida, but where I grew up in Pennsylvania, potholes would appear after the winter thaw.
May you continue to see the glass as half full today, Arlene!
I’ll be out driving today – watching out for those potholes! I will smile if I see one and drive around it, and that’s a good thing.
;-D You are Numero Uno on replying to my post today. Huge Hugs, if only virtual!
That definitely put a smile on my face. And the “sprig” of orange hair raises the cuteness factor by 10.
Yeah, I loved the hair too. Any day you can have a “cute” pothole is a good day.
Haha! We gotta smile and laugh through the potholes of life for sure!
The sun is shining, it is a beautiful day. I choose not to notice the potholes. 🙂
Good choice. 🙂 xo
