Simple Pleasures and Quality Living
Work hard, rejoice in your accomplishments no
matter how minor, be honest, maintain your self
esteem. "There is nothing better for a man that to eat
and drink and tell himself that his labor is good."
Ecclesiastes 2:24. Quality of life is home, family, a
quiet evening on a trout stream, a warm chocolate chip
cookie, and an electric blanket.

I love to pick flowers and watch people. I like to sit
in an airport and watch people. I sit and wonder where
each person is going and where they have been. I love
to see how they greet the people who are waiting for
them.

Time spent with my husband of 35 years is always
special,
wh~ther
we're working on some carpenter job
together, or walking in the woods, doing yard work, or
travelling to see the children and all the grandkids.

At my age of 70, I dearly love to have my family:
sons, daughters, in-laws, and grandchildren come
home and we sing for hours. Being with good Christian
friends, and being able to cook for anyone are two of
my life's simple pleasures. As Paul said, "Learn to be
content at any time of your life." You'll be surprised at
how much you can do and achieve.
