Stop and Smell the Roses...

It really is amazing how quickly one's life can change. One minute you're riding high without a care in the world, and the next minute your life has taken a 180 degree turn in the complete opposite direction, leaving you faced with heartbreak, anger, or another similar emotion. This scenario functions both ways of course. One can just as easily go from the depths of despair to the top of the highest emotionally positive mountain, metaphorically speaking. This is why it is important, as they say, to "stop and smell the roses". In other words, don't just admire the beauty of the rose ( whatever the rose might symbolize in your own life) in passing, but rather take the time to truly recognize everything the rose has to offer. Do this not because it is there, but because you don't know when it might not be.

Just a quick thought for the day boys and girls...

More on the weekend's happenings coming later this evening...
