I love your ability to find joy in the world, helped by your granddaughter. As much as the current situation in the US disturbs and worries me I have determined a couple of things. I will do what I can to change what I can. And I will not allow the negatives to completely occupy my life, my thinking or my world. I make a conscious effort every day to focus on the good - on the small miracles that happen every day. The blessings that I have. To recognize that there are too many people in the world who would give anything to have my problems instead of theirs. So, I will (as the old hymn says) brighten the corner where I am, making each person I meet get at least a smile from me and, perhaps, to feel a little better about their life. I will help those I can, listen to those who need that, provide advice - when asked, and try to make my small corner a little gentler, kinder and brighter. Thank you for doing that for me.

One devotion I try to practice is to everyday look for the little treasures God has tucked along the way. Collect them like a bouquet, and at the end of the day, offer them up with gratitude.
