A single smile is a cure for anything. It penetrates the human heart causing it to beat faster. A single smile means warmth, satisfaction, happiness, and most of all it means life. People smiling know and understand they have something worth living for. Andriana Kelisakieva

Make one person happy each day and in forty years you will have made 14,600 human beings happy for a little time at least. ~Charles Wiley

I just got back home from a funeral service of a 95-year-old lady…
The weather is awful right now. Very few cars on the road, kind of scary…

Hurricane Sandy will be here at any time. If you don’t hear from me,
you know why.

The Governor has already declared a state of emergency in Massachusetts as Hurricane Sandy approached New England, threatening heavy rains and damaging winds that could bring massive power outages.

I just got back. Still have so many things to get done. I will visit all of you tomorrow. Missed you so much my dearest friends.

A very sad day for us: A 95-year-old elderly we just visited at the nursing home, passed a way last night…At 95, she still had an amazing memory. She was able to communicate with us so well on the day we visited her. So sad that she had to leave us. Nothing is permanent…

I am taking one week off from my regular job to do charity work with Buddhist Monks and Buddhist Nuns for one whole week. I will return home Tuesday night. I will have a little access to g+ via my phone, but the connection is very slow. I can read streams, and  a few plus+ing, but comment may not be possible. Too slow.  G+ friends is just like my second family. I respect and cherish our friendship here very much. Take care my dear friends. I will miss all of you and the beautiful posts you share very much. Everyone is my teacher. I have learned so much from each and everyone of you. See you again Tuesday night, next week.

Every child you encounter is a divine appointment. ~Wess Stafford

Life is like a mirror, we get the best results when we smile at it. ~Author Unknown

October’s the month
When the smallest breeze
Gives us a shower
Of autumn leaves.
Bonfires and pumpkins,
Leaves sailing down –
October is red
And golden and brown.

Leaving my little room now. Going out of states again. See you all Sunday night. No holiday for me this coming Monday.

Sunshine

Sunshine gentle on my face,
Sunshine, caressing, gentle, kind,
Sunshine traveling, through endless miles of space,
Sunshine forever on my mind.

Sunshine warms the gentle Earth,
Sunshine warms the seven seas,
Sunshine chases sorrows, welcomes mirth,
Sunshine does its very best to please. ~By Juan Olivarez
