On hate and love

Hope your weekend was good.  The weather has been mild and I have been able to meet up with a couple of friends for walks.  We have also been exchanging gifts.

I was at a dinner party this past weekend and a beautiful rose was given to each lady to take home. 



Lady Fi has a wonderful quote from Martin Luther King as her blog header.  It is so true and at Christmastime with discord in many families, something to at least think about. 

'Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. -- Martin Luther King Jr.'

 Browsing through Pinterest I came upon this article with a happiness formula:  letting go + acceptance + gratitude.  Letting go involves no overthinking, just be.  Acceptance is when you are okay with things as they are, no need to have control or to try to change things.  And of course, gratitude is thankfulness for what you have.  I enjoyed the read.
