  2. I like the haziness of the scene. The quote reminds me that the fear of disappointment can lead to low expectations.

  4. Thank you for this beautiful atmospheric post that clears through the clutter and brings us back to reality. I appreciate your nice visit and comment. Don't know if you were aware, but my husband has been declining with Alzheimer's and has been in care since August. I visit him everyday. It's heartwarming. Heartbreaking and challenging all at the same time! My mom passed 2 weeks ago. She was 93 and ready. But still it's been a sometimes challenging time. Please excuse that I haven't visited often. Keeping my blog up is very important to me and I appreciate your visit. Take care of yourself and keep enjoying the everyday gifts. Aloha!

    1. My husband passed a couple of years ago. I was his caregiver. I understand. Start a gratitude journal be thankful for three things. Take time for yourself. I kept my blog up but have trouble more now that I am alone and using a walker myself. Honor your progress. Take care of yourself. Hugs!

  8. Beautiful photo and interesting quote. I've been told that all marital counseling is basically, decrease expectations and increase commitment.

    1. Interesting. I noticed that when couples go on vacation they have a good time if it doesn't rain or snow or meets their expectations and a bad time if expectations aren't met.
