Happiness with Yourself Assignment; Happy Bday!
First off, Happy Bday to one of the crazy kids, Casey! We are celebrating this coming weekend with them. The pic of all the kids - keep on reading!
On last week's Addicted to Food show, they had an assignment to go out & take pictures of things that gave them spiritual guidance. At Shades of Hope, their "10 commandments" per se are guided by each person becoming spiritually connected to "THEIR MEANING OR VIEW OF GOD". I put that in caps because they are not pushing that each person has to believe in God but they want them to find one thing that spiritually connects or grounds them. For one lady, it is her brother that she lost when he was in a motorcycle accident.
I don't talk to much about my own views on this on my blog but suffice to say that I am not a "God" believer. I do always recall my dad saying: I talk to HER every Wednesday". I loved that first, it was A HER!
Now, don't get mad at me. I am all for to each their own & whatever makes you happy & helps you, that is fine with me. I think those that know me well, know this.
BUT, I grew up with my Dad saying the above & I still live by that. I live by what feels right to me & for now, those family members I have lost are my guidance. It may change with time & has but that is the way I flow.
My pic is above - the grandkids. I was never great with kids when I was younger & the stepgirls were young. My stepdaughters can attest to that! BUT, the fact that I have turned around enough that the crazy kids love me, well, that to me, makes me rock!
So, on to my assignment:
Go out and take a picture of whatever makes you feel HAPPY WITH YOURSELF. Anything that makes you say, I am wonderful or I am pretty or I am a good person or just I ROCK!
Pls send me the one pic you like the best that reflects that about you & I will compile the pics & create a post with them. You can send them to jody@truth2beingfit.com & tell me if it is OK to mention your name/blog URL.
It may take me a bit to put the post together due to my "touchy" computer skills but I think this would be fun to see. Please feel free to pass on to others to do it and/or share on Facebook as well! If I have to do multiple posts, I will.
ENJOY & can't wait to see - Camera phone pics or whatever...







I am a full believer and follower in the Lord Jesus Christ no other have been since I found Him at age 15. I was very bad teenager and when I look back at it He saved me from myself.
I do not usually talk "religion" but I will always state my belief when asked.

i was saved at age 15 too and 17 years later i am still in love with the Lord. if heaven really exists then nothing else matters, if heaven doesn't exist then nothing matters at all (my pastor said that). p.s. to Jody, thank you for allowing us to be honest about ourselves on your blog, it makes yours unique and appreciated
