Cut the Negatives!

Dropped Zachary at school and on the way back I saw plenty of nice views which led me to write this little tidbit:

Glorious sunrise...mist on the lake...fog on the fields...these are a few of this morning's thrills! There are so many beautiful things and moments that surround you, get into them.

Right now I'm looking at a photo envelope that says IMPORTANT: PLEASE DO NOT CUT THE NEGATIVES.
...and I'm thinking, "Yes!, we DO need to cut the negatives"...ya know...negative thinking, hate, anger, self-condemning words, unforgiveness and the like.

speaking of film and negatives here's a quick slide show of recent shots...enjoy!

Laugh as much as you breathe!

Well, I finally took a few more pictures and will try and get them up here this week, as well as more posts, even if it's just one quote...want to stay in touch with positive and uplifting information.

Today I was rehearsing parts in a play called "Color of Love", and I'm the white guy in love with the black girl and her daddy doesn't like it. It's got some pretty real stuff but also some humor too. Really needed the laughter today...quite stressed out.

In the restroom of the host's beautiful home I read the following framed quote:

Laugh as much as you breathe...Love as long as you live.

...sounds like good counsel to me. Have a great week everybody!

Guys, you were made for a purpose.

The dream's alive with my eyes opened wide
Back in the ring you've got me swinging for the grand prize
I feel the haters spittin vapors on my dreams
But I still believe...

I found this song someone put through a "Chipmunk Remixer", strange, kinda cute, kinda funny...but really look at the lyrics I've posted. Also, this song is #38 on my playlist, Toby Mac's actual version.
ok, click playlist to pause first and gooooooo Chipmunks!


tobyMac - Made to Love You Lyrics:

The dream is fading, now I'm staring at the door
I know its over cause my feet have hit the cold floor
Check my reflection, I ain't feelin what I see
It's no mystery
Whatever happened to a passion I could live for
What became of the flame that made me feel more
And when did I forget that...

I was made to love you
I was made to find you
I was made just for you
Made to adore you
I was made to love
And be loved by you
You were here before me
You were waiting on me
And you said you'd keep me
Never would you leave me I was made to love
and be loved by you

The dream's alive with my eyes opened wide
Back in the ring you've got me swinging for the grand prize
I feel the haters spittin vapors on my dreams
But I still believe
I'm reachin out, reachin up, reachin over
I feel a breeze cover me called Jehovah
And daddy I'm on my way
Cause I was made to love...

I was made to love you
I was made to find you
I was made just for you
Made to adore you
I was made to love
And be loved by you
You were here before me
You were waiting on me
And you said you'd keep me

Never would you leave me I was made to love
and be loved by you

I was made to love you
I was made just for you
Made to adore you
I was made to love
And be loved by you
You were here before me
You were waiting on me
And you said you'd keep me
Never would you leave me I was made to love
and be loved by you
