Happy People Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff

People who are happy focus their energy and efforts only on things that are truly important and within their control.

🌾 Today’s Poem ~ On Friendship

On Friendship

Khalil Gibran

Your friend is your needs answered.
He is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving.
And he is your board and your fireside.
For you come to him with your hunger, and you seek him for peace.

When your friend speaks his mind you fear not the ‘nay’ in your own mind, nor do you withhold the ‘ay.’
And when he is silent your heart ceases not to listen to his heart;
For without words, in friendship, all thoughts, all desires, all expectations are born and shared, with joy that is unacclaimed.
When you part from your friend, you grieve not;
For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.
And let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.
For love that seeks aught but the disclosure of its own mystery is not love but a net cast forth: and only the unprofitable is caught.

And let your best be for your friend.
If he must know the ebb of your tide, let him know its flood also.
For what is your friend that you should seek him with hours to kill?
Seek him always with hours to live.
For it is his to fill your need, but not your emptiness.
And in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures.
For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.

🍎 Today’s Health Question ~ Which is Better for You?

Which is Better for You: Red Grapes or Red Wine?

Answer:

Red Grapes: Resveratrol, the famous antioxidant found in red grapes, may slow your skin’s aging process by impairing harmful free radicals that damage your skin. . . . This beneficial compound is also found in red wine. Unfortunately, there’s not much evidence that the amount of resveratrol you get from a glass of red wine is enough to affect your skin.

🤗 Feel Good Hack ~ Wake Up Earlier – The Day is Waiting for You!

Polish Your Attitude & Pop Out of Bed

Making sleep a priority, you’ll be popping out of bed with the best of them. And once you do, you’ll find yourself with hours of “me” time to do whatever you want. “During this time do something like exercise, reading, listening to a podcast, doing meditation or mantras, or just enjoying a sitcom with your cup of coffee,” Martinez says. It’ll make all the difference in the world.
