Simple Pleasures and Quality Living
thine own understanding: In all thy ways acknowledge
Him, and He will direct thy paths."

Quality living for me is having a quiet dinner one on
one with my husband, or my children individually.
Additionally, I would have to include camping in the
woods, roasting marshmallows, singing praises to God
with or without other people, especially in the dark, in
the outdoors. I love listening to my children, hearing my
family laughing and joking, and spending time at the
be~ch
or the mountains. Another special quality time
for me is curling up in bed reading a book when it is
raining outside. Always, if at all possible, be at all
services Sunday a.m., p.m, Wednesday, Bible studies.
Worship God daily, but always seek who God has put
in your path that day to encourage. It is important to
encourage others with cards, calls, visits, etc.

First, dedicate your life to Christ and his service.
Then, decide what it is you want to achieve and set
some goals with a reasonable time schedule.
Appreciate people who take an interest in you and help
you along the way. Pick your friends as carefully as
you would a fine gem and cherish them. Be honorable
and truthful, for truth never collides with truth. Be loyal,
loving, and caring to your family. Quality living for me
is to listen to childrens' conversations, observe nature
in my own backyard, listen to the music of the spheres,
see and feel all the colors around me, camp in the
mountains and by the sea, observe night skies and day
skies, conversations with loved ones, visits from friends,
