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

It's A Great Day To Praise The Lord! I was always thought that God was just GOD.  I figured out He's not! God is in the tired patient, that I befriended. Though she was sick herself ,  decided  to do my laundry for me, after seeing how exhausted I was.  God is in my sister.  Though my sister has so much on her plate,  she still takes time out to visit me..   God is in my mother. Though, I, at 60 years old,  should be taking care of my mother, she is always taking care to make sure that I am okay.  God in has always been in people who treat me medically,emotionally, and spiritually.  Though I have become sick a lot, my medical team, and others who give me care, have never tired of giving me their best,. God is in my friends and my family, who still are my friends and family , knowing how difficult things can get for me at times.  I have to mention, God is in my minister, Pastor Gary.  Wherever I am, home or hospita...

GRATITUDE AND CONTENTMENT I look out at this gosh awful winter and feel this freezing cold.  I then begin to wish for other more comfortable weather..  I remember...God gave me this day.  I woke up to day, in pain-yes but, I woke up and saw the sun shine today!  I have so very much to be grateful for!.  God has truly blessed me so very abundantly! I may not have lots of money or expensive items but, I'm richer than most people! My health may not be great and I'm sick a lot but, I make friends wherever I go! My family may not always give me everything I want but, they love me lots! My family is  there for me, giving me what I need! My friends and I may not go out on the town but, they are also there for me! My I know I can depend on my friends! I may be alone more than I want to but, I really not alone.   Wherever I am, I know,Jesus is with me! You see, I can rejoice and be glad  And I can praise God with a joyful heart!   ...

Today's society is, metaphorically speaking, walking on egg shells. We cannot be ourselves because we'll offend someone if we speak or do anything! Why can't we all love each other, not only for our similarities, but, for our differences as well? If we can't love what is different from us, we can at least accept the differences in others! We can learn from someone with different views, in different age bracket,  different religions, etc... Why can't we just express ourselves and allow others to express themselves, even if they are different from ourselves. Love each other for our similarities and accept the differences in others! Problem solved!                Evelyn Pinto                December 4, 2015

I trekked outside today. This is what it looked like outside my window. This is the courtyard, of the building, in which I live in. Outside today, I was met with an amazing, breathtaking view! Pictures taken by me,               An Evelyn in Awe              December 3, 2015

My friends and I made Christmas cards. With the same materials, our finished products were all totally different! My friends and I had a great time, doing art in the activity room under the supervision of the building's Activities' Director. All of us, who participated in this craft, had a really, great time! We all live in our own apartments in the same building. Here are pictures of our work:                  Evelyn Pinto,                  A great advocate of fun                 December 2, 2015
