Woke up with a headache today (so what else is new?!) It hung around most of the day.....just a dull ache.....just enough to be aggravating! But, since I took my tylenol PMs (generic brand) it has finally gone away! Just in time for me to go to bed! At least I should be able to go to sleep with no problem!
Today I worked on a digital kit, the elements portion, of a collaboration I'm doing with a fellow designer from Digitals. She is a super sweet lady! Lives in Louisiana. She lost her husband not too long before Christmas last year. Very sad to lose a spouse anytime, but right before the holidays must really be tough! But, there is a purpose in it, even though we cannot see one! Today's quote from Helen Steiner Rice is:
We love the sound of laughter
And the merriment of cheer,
But our hearts would lose their tenderness
If we never shed a tear.
I never thought of a good reason for the need of tears before! I could still do without them on numerous occasions! I hate when the emotions are running on high gear and I can cry at the drop of a hat! Oh, well! Some day we will not shed anymore tears! What a glorious day that will be!
Today appreciate the importance of both laughter and tears.
Until tomorrow.....
Welcome to my little corner of the world. I pray some of what you read is an inspiration and a blessing to you for your day. This is the day the Lord has made. Rejoice and be glad in it!

My heart goes out to your friend. I'm sure this Christmas was super hard for her. Thank goodness she has caring friends like you Vicky. Holidays are still hard for me, three years after losing my precious Frank. Holidays were the time he was off work, relaxed, and such an important part of our family gatherings, especially Thanksgiving and Christmas. We laugh more now, but the tears still flow as well. ♥
So sorry for your friend! Tears are sometimes just downright necessary!! :)
