Recycle Glass

How do you reuse/upcycle different items in your everyday life?I guess its time to stop buying new glass for my glass projects and start using what is already available. Glass does last forever.

Winds of Change

"If you don't like something change it; if you can't change it, change the way you think about it."
 ~Mary Engelbreit~

It seems as if the strong "Winds of Change" are here.

Not only in my home, and my life....but around our country and elsewhere.

I am one to embrace "Change"....although it can be painful many times.

But I'd rather "Bend than Break."

Sometimes....change is hard and we resist it.

Often times we do.......and yet it's probably for our own good and well being.

We are humans and we are frail and we are are fearful.

Risk taking is always........well......."a risk."

I wish I were younger. I'd jump off of more cliffs and bridges.

But I am older now and afraid I might break.

Things like major change didn't bother me so much when I was younger.

Now it does.

Yet, change we must or become obsolete and abandoned like a ghost town.

Oftentimes.....it's all about how we think.

We must change our thoughts and how we look at things.

Not always easy to do when we see with the "natural eye."

That is why we must "Trust" and "walk by faith and not by sight."
