DAILY TAROT: Three of Swords

I am in charge of how I feel today.

A heart with three swords piercing it. Some interpret it as an emotional upset, but the positive affirmation is that no matter what happens you are the only one responsible for how you feel and how you respond. So today remember I am in charge of how I feel today.

Porte Photos’ Daily Quote: December 18th

I’m not really religious but very spiritual.
I give money to this company that
manufactures hearing aids on a regular basis.
More people should really hear me sing.
I have a gift from God.

CANCER SUCKS!

Small cell cancer, bone cancer, lung cancer, brain cancer, breast cancer, tongue cancer, throat cancer, colon cancer, kidney cancer, pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, skin cancer….

It’s taken so many of my friends and family. And those that it hasn’t taken but infected, live on with the effects of treatments or memory of how it attacked and devastated their lives.

Early detection and treatment is so important. So keep getting those mammograms, colonoscopies and ultrasounds.

We’ve been lucky. Harold has lost a kidney to cancer as well as parts of his colon and stomach. Both were found accidently, through testing for other ailments. Surgery was the only treatment needed and he didn’t have to have chemo or radiation. I hope the doctor left the horse shoes up Harold’s a…… because he certainly needs them.

If I die tomorrow,
I’ve accomplished everything
I wanted to do in life.

~ Don Johnson

If I die tomorrow may I be like Don Johnson and say I’ve accomplished everything I wanted to do in life.

If I live tomorrow may I be like Detective Columbo and say: Just one more thing…………

Porte Photos’ Daily Quote: August 30th

Your regrets aren’t what you did,
but what you didn’t do.
So I take every opportunity.

~ Cameron Diaz
American – Actress Born: August 30, 1972

Porte Ponderings:

Yes, take opportunities as they come.

But you can’t take every opportunity.

As summer is coming to a close it seems like everyone is scheduling events for you to attend. This last long weekend of the summer is a prime example. At Port Glasgow Trailer Park there are events scheduled all weekend with a silent auction and craft show scheduled for Saturday.

Next weekend is a baby shower for my grand nephew in Mount Brydges.

Then all the September birthdays. It’s as if my family tried to get a birthday for everyday of the month.

Not to mention all the Doctor appointments scheduled for September.

So choose which opportunities are the most important and be certain to schedule some down time to appreciate September walks and contemplations. Or try some of those painting tutorials you’ve been wanting to do like the Grey Wolf tutorial https://app.jesserobertson.com/#/watchfree/grey_wolf
