What's on your Boomerang?

Wikipedia's definition of a boomerang:  A returning boomerang has two or more airfoil wings arranged so that the spinning creates unbalanced aerodynamic forces that curve its path so that it travels in an elliptical path and returns to its point of origin when thrown correctly.  So basically you throw it out and it returns back to you.


I firmly believe that whatever you throw out in life on your boomerang is what is going to return to you.  If you wake up on the wrong side of the bed, start off on the wrong foot, full of negative, worry, and anger, you throw that boomerang out and guess what? That is what you are going to get back!  More negative, more worry, and more anger and frustration as the day goes on. 


I woke up this morning thankful for all my blessings (and I have a lot of them) its a beautiful day, I have a family that loves me, joy in my heart, and so much more to be thankful for!  I threw out my boomerang this morning with nothing but good!  Thankfulness, blessings, love, peace, and good thoughts.  I know that at the end of the day when my boomerang returns all those things will be returned to me. 


No matter what my day holds I am strong in my Faith that I will make it through, and I don't have to do it with negative either.  Everything happens for a reason, take those experiences learn from them and then move on.  Don't dwell on it instead focus on the good, count your blessings, and enjoy every minute of the day you are allowed to walk on this Earth.  




I hope your boomerang comes back to you full of all the good things and joys life has to offer!

Mama Said There Would Be Days Like This.....

You ever have days where everything seems to go wrong?  That was my day on Friday, first our air conditioner stopped working in our house, it was 93 degrees outside and very muggy.  Called the repairman and waited.  He got here late in the afternoon, did a repair to limp us through the weekend, until he can get the actual part/kit to fix it properly on Monday.

Tried to work on some things for my shop but most of what I was working on just wouldn't come out the way I wanted it to.  I decided it was because it was just too hot back in my work area and the heat was messing with my judgement.

Later Friday evening a bad storm came through, lots of lightening, thunder, and wind.  I heard an awful crash and knew somewhere a tree had fallen!  This is what we saw the next morning.
Frustrating yes it is. But it is not as bad as it could of been! 

I am not the type of person who allows the struggles of everyday life to sour me.  My faith carries me through these trials and I believe these experiences make me a stronger and a better person in the end.  After I snapped this picture I looked up and noticed this, the beautiful sun shining down through the trees.
I stood for a moment basking in this blessing.  No matter what life throws at us there is always a blessing if you just open your mind, open your eyes and see it.  My cup runneth over and I am forever thankful for that!
