Good comments.
I am enjoying the new bread Carol brought me from Super Store.
Dad forgets when the hockey is coming on so good Ken phoned to tell us it was a disappointing game. Once we started watching it had improved. It ended with the Canucks winning 3 to 2 in over time.
I am reminded that I am learning to focus on the present.

I often talk without thinking first.
I want to encourage others to use words that celebrate and affirm life.

It is wonderful to be able to talk and express our thoughts,

I wonder about thinking before speaking. I mean, should it such a need that it impedes natural conversation? If words are spoken which reveal a persons thoughts then even if those are not "good" thoughts then isn't it an opportunity for discourse on the subject? Why keep everything bottled up and hide what we think all the time?
