Kim has started a new challenge for June, find the details here: HAPPINESS.
What creates happiness in our lives? I have a lot that makes me happy. I post about them every day. Today I was thinking I am so happy to have such good memories of all of my loved ones who have died before me. I could focus on the negative thoughts, they are not here, etc. And I do that. But I push myself to remember when they were here. Each day I try to pick at least one happy memory and it gets me through the day. Today I was thinking of Dustin of course. He told me many times that I was “the best Mom ever”. Will never forget that and he even wrote it in a card. Miss and love him forever. And I have happy memories to keep me smiling. Like the one in the photo. Smile and the whole world smiles with you.

Thank you for sharing your wonderful memories.
And I thank you for reading my friend.
You know he is still your world in your thoughts. He is always alive within you so he is still your world right? I hope I said that right.
Yes you said it right, thanks my friend.
I now recognize him without looking at the post. Love this shot Carol. Thank you for sharing your wonderful memories. I answered yes, of course!
Thanks Kim. He was my world, great memories.
Great photo, very sweet….and sweet post as well. That’s a great moment to remember, thank you for sharing
Thanks Courtney, it was a special time.
I see why you would want to recall this memory. I do my best to remember the good times. There are some moments where it’s just the memory of someone’s laughter that gets me through.
Absolutely I understand that Donald. Some things cannot be shared, they are only within our hearts.
That photo is adorable, Carol. I clicked “no” for your question but it put yes anyway…strange. It is hard to explain, I just don’t.
Thank you Ann. Sorry you hesitated on your answer. I do on a lot of days but try to much through. Life is definitely trying.
He has given the best definition that exists in life for a mother “the best mom ever”
I agree, and I will never forget my friend.
Nice photo!
Good idea to focus on the happy memories!!
It’s something I want to pick up…
Thanks. It is not easy, I still work on it from time to time.
It seems like you’re doing it pretty well 🙂
I do appreciate your comments my friend.
Yes, its nice to have some happy memories.
Good to see you Pam. Thanks.
What a lovely picture 🙂 How lucky we are to have good memories to focus on, and try and push the bad intrusive ones out of the way <3
Indeed Norman. It is difficult but a path we must choose.
