Good mornin' y'all....

"Good mornin' y'all"... my first words on fb nearly everyday....  

Followed by a bit of friendly advice, or something someone else has shared.  A picture, some lines of scripture, or a thought or two. Some words to hopefully encourage me or you, and hopefully make our days a little bit brighter.  When I type those words, on my facebook page, I try to put a smile on my face, and make my spirit light and sunny, and hope that I never come off sounding fake, but I don't mind if I do sound funny.  Funny and crazy is what I like to be.  To make people laugh, even if it makes sometimes a fool of me.... what the heck, it is okay, as long as it makes for you, a happier, light-hearted day.

We all have struggles in our lives, and we carry burdens that are very heavy at times, but why do we need to share those with EVERYone?  We really don't.  People like to hear about, and read about, good times, and upbeat, positive things. Of course sometimes they like to know that they (all of us) are not the only ones with troubles, and woes, and for those times, we can let them know they are not alone, though, still in a positive way.  However, in my opinion, our innermost, most personal feelings really are not to be put on a page, that has our name on the top of it, for all of the WORLD (so to speak) to see. Reeeally?  Do you think?  Noooo, I don't, anyhow... that is what we have our closest friends for, those within our innermost inner circle... they DO WANT to know, but even they do not want to feel totally stressed, or over-burdened, by our troubles, and neither do we, with theirs.  

Just sayin' here, I guess... I really don't want to put all of my worst on my fb page (nor do I like to read it on other's) ... I feel it should be a place for a GOOD STORY, maybe a funny joke, or a happy- tear-filled moment, that can touch the hearts of many.  Not a place to air our dirty laundry, for sure, or a place to have a dispute!  We really all are alot alike, though we are so very different and unique. That is truly what makes the world go 'round.... God made us that way for a reason.  Soooo.... let's try to share the goooood stuff, on the "face of our book"... Smile, and be grateful, let others know what we feel, what we have to be thankful for, share a picture of the clouds, or a rainbow, or maybe your sweet fur baby, or (GRAND)child, but keep it light y'all... encourage, uplift, give hope, share faith, bring joy.... thank God, and tell all of those who you love that you do, many times..... it's even okay to get a little sappy once in awhile... it will make your skin tingle, in a good way!  Be brave to share a story where you were touched by an angel, if you want... even Maxine will not mind if you post and re-post her, but just be careful with your words out there.... if they are not good words, they can hurt and bruise someone else, and you may never even know it.  Or you might know it, because it could result in the loss of a friendship, or other relationship!  As most of us have heard growing up, "If you don't have anything nice to say, say nothing at all."... well, that is a good practice to not only live by, but "facebook" by.

You can never be sure how another will "take" the words you write, because words read on a page will never have the infliction that they will when you say them with your voice.... you can only 'hope' that the other one reading your words understands how you mean them, and sometimes they still don't when you try to explain yourself.  Sometimes it might be too late.... you can say I'm sorry, but you can never take back words after they come out, either spoken or written.

So "Good mornin' y'all" ... and just take this little bit of advice, from one who knows... be careful what you "say"--- and have yourself a happy, happy day.  :)   Blessings, <3 ~me
