Time To Get Your ~PRAISE~ On!

Today is a good day to:
•Let people see you being real – laugh with your mouth open, sing out of key, and let the wind brush your hair•tell the people you love just how much you love them•surround yourself with creative thoughts, creative people, creative opportunities andAND…fill you days with all sorts of kindnesses to shower you with happiness and joy…life is only a diamond when it sparkles!

 

 

Be filled with Light and be the Captain of Your Ship. When you accept the responsibility for your own life and realize that YOU absolutely have the power and the ability to change your life for the better. You do deserve quality in everything you experience. Improve your relationships, generate a genuine positive outlook and attitude, influence others and release and move from past emotional pain and receive joy.

The journey of a life worth living
is not always in the details
but the enjoyment in the path we travel
and the love we share”gail cain

 

“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. . I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.“- Benjamin Button

Start every day with a wonderful morning…. a nice cup of coffee, would be a nice start and anything that brings you joy and happiness!

And when we say good night ….Remember…we have laughed today…cried a bit…given thanks to all that we are blessed with…all in all…a very, very fine day…It was good!

THE JOY OF LIVING~LOVE IS THE KEY

joie de vi·vre

Pronunciation: \ˌzhwä-də-ˈvēvr^ə\

Function: noun

Etymology: French, literally, joy of living

Date: 1889

: keen or buoyant enjoyment of life

What to wear to look chic, comfortable and classic…but cool. I like this for a day of shopping, travel and lunching with friends. A great LA look!

This is the another example of the hair and clothes that I really like…a good look, for my personality. I think it combines a classic, conservative look, but very contemporary and elegant. What do you guys think?

This is a favorite look of mine in casual wear for summer. It is a classic that never goes out of style and can be adapted to different skirt lengths. The bag is very chic addition to the overall look.

What a great look that can be achieved very inexpensively. A great little jean jacket is a great investment staple to a wardrobe. Pair it with a fresh cotton skirt in a luscious citrus color and a white tee or as nice little sundress and cute little brown sandals and you will be THE delight, bringing smiles and sunshine to everyone you meet! Find these on sale at local boutiques, discount & department stores!

What if you can’t have the stars…would the moon be OK? Wishing you all to Dance by the light of the moon and a happy cozy days,  filled with ~love~!

If you need a vacation but can’t take the time away, need to save your money…which is no laughing matter..how bout just smile anyway…it is still your special day…every day is!! Every day is a gift…make home your vacation..its all up to you!

Having a wonderful and magical day is the KEY to Joi De Vivre! LOVE IS THE KEY!!

LOVE IS THE STRENGTH & LOVE IS THE JOY THAT BRIGHTENS OUR DAYS AND KEEPS A YOUTHFUL

EXPERIENCE ALIVE IN OUR LIVES!

LOVE  keeps our life full of fun and laughter“What is genius?- It is the power to be a boy again at will”
~James Matthew Barrie

There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.
~ Albert Einstein

~WE HAVE NO ONE TO BLAME
BUT OURSELVES IF WE DO NOT PICK UP

Daily Affirmation~Don’t be upset by the small and insignificant things and a FRESH BREEZE WILL BLOW INTO OUR LIFE*** LOVE IS THE KEY

I am feeling a fresh wind blowing in….

“Twenty
years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you
didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail
away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.”

Mark Twain

LOVE IS THE KEY!

What is love?

Is it an exotic vacation, an expensive house, lots of fabulous collectibles, a great new sports car? Those can be fun and exciting, but aren’t fun at all unless experienced with someone you love and enjoy. To have love, you can find the most exciting moments walking together and having a bottle of wine and a basket with homemade goodies and sit under a tree by your home in a park. A perfect picture!

Labor hard, seek a goal, have a vision of your life,

pray for encouragement and guidance to reach the heights of your dreams.

Keep a green tree in your heart and perhaps a singing bird will come.
- Chinese proverb

Often we allow ourselves to be upset by the insignificant and small things.  We spend hours worrying and brooding over these little things that a more secure and happy person would just forget!  If we would just let it go we would realize that it is forgotten by us and everyone else, if only we would keep it in its proper perspective.  Let us spend our energy and time on things which are worthwhile of our precious time, that is uplifting, peace building, loving and based on great thoughts and real affections that endure and bless our days.

SHOES DESIGNED WITH LOVE AND MAGIC!

Inspired by the book by Lewis Carroll

ALICE IN WONDERLAND

Shoe design and construction

by Gail Cain

Hello Dear Readers!

Thought you might like to see my shoe I designed and constructed for school!  I love it!  The shoe has keys and locks, clocks and rabbit tails and the front has clocks shaped like wheels of roller skates for dear little Alice and the heel is the shape of a heart.  It is made totally out of paper with the use of origami…the butterfly…. and I used kiragami for the cuttings on the shoe, since the cards are all made of paper in Alice in Wonderland…it could be a shoe for Cinderella too, I think.
