Hi everybody! Goodness, aren't these cool mornings refreshing? I don't know how I taught for nine years without drinking coffee in the mornings - that habit only began a few years ago when my mom was sick - but oh, what a pleasure it is in my life right now! I hope you have a chance to just sit for at least 10 minutes with peace in your mornings before beginning your personal realities. Thank you so much for coming over to the store, for your encouragement, and for your ideas. I love being here for you!
This week we are getting fun new shipments. I have new fiction, new great kids books, and great new little gifts. If your kids are back in school, or if you only have a few little ones left at home during the day, please feel free to come over, let your little one play, and use our picket fence area to get your work done while they play. I am serious - I want the store to be an escape for you from your routine, and I don't mind having your little one playing while you work!
I hope you have a great weekend - I just read a piece from Mother Teresa's Meditations that I have printed out for myself this week. I'll share it with you so it may encourage you also. May God bless you & your week - Susan
A sign on the wall of the children's home in Calcutta reads:
Take Time to Think
Take Time to Pray
Take Time to Laugh
It is the Source of Power
It is the Greatest Power on Earth
It is the Music of the Soul
Take Time to Play
Take Time to Love and Be Loved
Take Time to Give
It is the Secret of Perpetual Youth
It is God's Given Privilege
It is Too Short a Day to Be Selfish
Take Time to Read
Take Time to Be Friendly
Take Time to Work
It is the Fountain of Wisom
It is the Road to Happiness
It is the Price of Success
