Hope

A beautiful bright red male cardinal has landed on my fence a few feet away from me. He leaves me with no words.. only hope. I cant help but think of the urban sayin.. that if a Cardinal lands near you that means an angel is there with you at that moment to give you guidance and protection.
Or how about when that eye candy butterfly flies around your head and circles you for a second.. secretly sizing you up.. before it lands on your knee or arm?... Hope, It give us hope. We see ourselves of being worthy of them .. so we feel we have a fighting chance in life.
I set and look to the clouds.. just about everyday and or evening.. images in the clouds.. When we were oh so innocent.. we would set and find helpful images in the clouds.. well, I still do that.. I search for signs.. I know at some point we all do.. Who wouldn't look for a good sign from the heavens?
Remember the day it was salt over the shoulder, or counting at certain times, or raising your legs going over RR tracks?? all the same.. NO MATTER the action... Tapping your glass on the table after a shot has been taken.... am itch on your hand.. or your nose... or the big one... your ears ringing??? EEWWW.. I know we all know that one and head the warnings or words... of what we think it means.....
IT ALL = Hope.... Call it what you will .. I say.. but it all = HOPE ~!
Whoever you are and wherever you may be.. I hope your signs show the way today. Lord knows we all need guidance and hope !!!

Lighten up Already

A man walks into a bar and sees his friend sitting beside a 12-inch pianist. He says to his friend, "That's amazing. How did you get that?"

The man pulls out a bottle and tells him to rub it and make a wish. He rubs the bottle, and a puff of smoke pops out and tells him that he can have one wish. So the man thinks and says, "I wish I had a million bucks."

The genie says, "OK, go outside, and your wish will be granted."

The man goes outside, but all he finds are ducks filling the sky and roads. He goes back in and tells his friend what happend, and his friend replies, "I know. Did you really think I wanted a 12-inch pianist?"
