GLASS HALF FULL....HALF EMPTY..............................

I was reading about the actress Valerie Harper.....
for some of you youngbloods.....she was on the
Mary Tyler Moore show many years ago...and then
her own show Rhoda.....she has been diagnosed with
brain cancer....73 years of age...and she is taking this
news with a chin up attitude...with grace and with
optimism...I salute this lady and her courageous and
gutsy stand against this type of cancer....Were I her
I fear my attitude and outlook would be bleak and
pathetic....for I tend to see the glass as half empty...
and have done so as long as I can remember...I
would much rather see the glass as half full...for that
gives one a sense of hope and well being...not of
dire results and darkness...Well anyway I wish you
well Valerie Harper...You are a lovely example of
holding on to all the best attributes a human being
can possess when faced with the biggest challenge
of ones life.....
This life we all have is so precious and can be so
rewarding....what kind of reward is seen in the eye
of the individual...no doubt...my rewards have
become simple...contented life for my loved ones...
good health for them..and myself...relationships that
are warm and loving...a beautiful sunset...my music
that takes me away...the big marshmallow clouds
that I pull up a chair in the yard to sit and look at...
What about you folks out there...what gives you
simple and rewarding pleasure...I hope to hear from
you...those who know who Valerie Harper is...that
would be my generation...drop me a line or two...
tell me anything you would like...I'm a good listener...
and am looking forward to some visitors in my blog
house.....Come one... come all.............
Ciao with a nice fist pump or is it bump for ya all...
