Reblogged this on Lorraine's frilly freudian slip and commented:
Happy Birthday to Wendy, and, of course, 364 unbirthdays to be mindful on. Thank you for the weekly present of Mindfulness Mondays.
I think the second quote is a mantra we might consider living by.

Thank you Lorraine! I think the second quote would be a good mantra. Perhaps I should read it every morning to remind me.

Hello Wendy. Oh, I’m sorry i just saw this. Happy birthday! i hope you had a lovely day?
I love the comment from Buddha. I want to try and wake up more positive everyday, and to try to make the most of every day. Sometimes i worry about the time i seem to just let slip away…You’ve got me thinking about life again!
P.S. What a beautiful picture of Winnie the Pooh and his balloon. This reminds me of my childhood – I remember the picture from a storybook I had when I was young 🙂
Love always
