THRIVING THURSDAY

 

Pondering with a Purpose - Live

Welcome to Pondering with a Purpose -

 

today's prompt is: Live

One of my favourite mottos is “Live life to the fullest”.  There is so much to see and do. There are people to meet and places to see. I think that is why we love cruising so much. We can do both at the same time.

Being alive and waking up each morning to see what new ventures are in store for us. I love to watch the changes as the grandchildren grow up. I have the time now that I didn’t have when my own children were growing up. It seems living got in the way.

The invention of the computer has certainly changed our lives. Now I can see my parents every day even though they live in a city 4 and 1/2 hours away. I see my grandchildren in South Carolina as well as those that live 1/2 hour away.

Thankfully I have the time now that I am retired. I can take the time to smell the roses. It has all been worth the journey to get here.

Isn't technology great! I love being able to see son,dil and grandson even though they're across the sea.

What is amazing about technology is that we are really only at the tip of the iceberg... who knows what is coming.....

Thanks for pondering with me! (and I look forward to your posts each week as well!)

I love your attitude and hope to think the same when I "retire."

You are so very blessed, and are using your computer time to maintain wonderful relationships! I often think of how my own mother would have loved cell phones with unlimited talk time and photos and texting... and computers that could share information on anything at all. She spent her last years mostly as a shut-in and it would have meant everything to her. We are blessed in ways we sometimes forget, but it sounds like you remember and count your blessings! I agree with you life is to be LIVED!
