Thoughtful Thursday

I began today like most other days on the back porch with a cup of coffee.  I woke up feeling at ease with the day and eager to began the normal day to day activities.  As the day rambled on it became stressful, hectic and I longed for the porch again.  I came home at lunch and took up residence again in my swing.  There is no other place that a weary soul can find rest like at home.  I guess because it is surrounded with the "things" we hold near and dear.  After all it is our safe-haven, the people we hold so close to our hearts are here and all our "comforts" also.  Can you even begin to imagine what Heaven will be like?  Better than home...yes...even more comfortable and to be in the presence of God---I hope I make it.  I have often said I don't have to even have an Upper-room, just put me there even if it is in the basement. :)  I hope you had a good day.  I am sending much love your way. :)  Continuing may "thankful" list....  11.  roads less traveled with a friend 12.  homegrown tomatoes 13.  phone calls from people you have been thinking about  14.  supper with family  15.  talks with my family
