This blog is over 4 years old! Much has changed! My faithful canine companion Max went to the Rainbow Bridge more that two years ago! Spencer came to live with me just over a year ago! They both have played an important role in my attitude about life, and have taught me unconditional love! I found couple of important messages in a few pennies! I hope that some of you will find something to help you here!

Good Smoke free afternoon everyone!! Thanks to all of you for helping me reach day 95!!!

    

Last night about 11:30 I went out to walk my dog. His name is Max! It was a nice warm Southwest Florida night. As we were ambling along, in the glare of a street light , I spotted a penny. There was a time in my life when I would have just left it there. But, I picked it up and put it in my pocket. This morning Max woke me up and told me it was time for his morning walk. I told him I would like to sleep a little longer. He explained what he was going to do to the carpet if I didn't get up. He won. I got up and we went for a long walk. As we were walking along I spotted another penny and again I picked it up and put it in my pocket. Not two minutes latter I found another penny. Now there is a little voice in the back of my head saying "what's up with all the pennies". I spent a few minute reflecting on that question. Those of you who know a little bit about me know that I am at the lowest point of my life. Physically, Financially, and on top of that I am giving up smoking. I came to two conclusions about the pennies.

    

1. I am looking down way to much!!! I need to hold my head back up high,so that I can see my way out of my problems!!!!

    

2. When you look close at a penny there is a message of hope on there. It says "IN GOD WE TRUST" ! Now I really have no idea how those pennies came to be where I could find them. But I have no intention of ignoring their message. When we have more on our plates than we can handle, there is a place to look to!!!

    

There are my thoughts! What are you thinking?
