ME-as I go through this zany, marvelous, difficult experience called: "LIFE"!

When I Can't Look In Or Look Out, I Look Up!  __Evelyn Pinto                                                                                    April 30, 2015

This is my self made mobile in my apartment. It is hanging from a light fixture. The sun-catchers are some of the items that I've painted. When I'm in bed in the other room, , I can see through to the living room. I watch with awe as the shadows, of the mobile pieces, dance on the wall!. It's Amazing!                                    Evelyn Pinto                                    April 28, 2016

I love being with children  and dogs more than anything! Imagine my surprise when my sister visited with my niece, Heather and a puppy! I hugged my niece and held this special, 2 month old puppy. Elvis, in my arms. This 2 month old puppy, I know, felt safe and warm, in my arms.  This time with my niece and my new, 4 legged friend, in my arms could have never been long enough! This special time with 2 very young beings, my niece, Heather and this special puppy, who's name is Elvis, is a memory I will keep in my heart forever!                                       Evelyn Pinto                                       April 27, 2015

                  THE SERENITY PRAYER How I (Evelyn Pinto) view The Serenity Prayer: (This is a very special prayer to me). God grant me the serenity (Lord, keep me quiet, calm and still when I need to be, not only physically but in my head as well) ) to accept the things I cannot change (Lord help me to accept not only my physical limitations but, my emotional boundaries as well) the courage to change the things I can (Lord, allow me never to live in places like risk or fear) and the wisdom to know the difference. (Lord, let the choices that I make and the life I live glorify You)! I hope you like how I look at the Serenity Prayer.  I love this prayer!                                                 Evelyn Pinto

As I get older (and I hope wiser) I'm realizing how important how I thought were the little things in life have gotten. These little things are, now, mind - bangling and much more important now. My faith in God sustains me. My family is super important to me. The wondrous night sky that was so visible to me last night I remember. The 'I love you' coming from my sister, Roberta's  mouth touched me. "I love you"  springing out of the mouths of so many whom  I also love and who have become so very important to me means so much to me. The innocent love children of children, presented to me so wondrously, has given my heart reasons to jump joyfully!s I get a bit older, these wondrous love sounds are beautiful songs to me. God loving me, me,  a sinner, so much that He sent His Son so I might have a chance, is the greatest love I or anyone, can ever, ever receive. God has loved me that much! Praise Be To God!  Love,  Graciously ...

My Life has become a balancing act.  Every lean to a particular emotion or event can put me over the edge. I'm okay, as long as I am living in the familiar or at the very least,  know what's coming. When uncomfortable, unexpected or frustrating circumstances invade my life, my coping skills and tolerance for people and things, drops significantly lower than when I'm in a stress-free state of mind. When I, physically, am sick and not feeling well, my emotions scatter all over the place. My physical health has not been good, especially, lately. Living with a lung disease and other health issues and living with being sick so much, has  a lot to do with my emotional frame of mind. It is NOT the reverse. This lung disease that is invading my body, as well as these other health issues, make visits to the hospital, almost routine. I, sometimes, become less patient and more impulsive than I want to be.  I, under ordinary circumstances, would not react as quickly, as I have...
