Hello and thanks for visiting me again today, yesterday there was no new entry in this journey we are taking here at Always Victoria but each one continued on with our own. I hope you had a very pleasant one for I was out taking care of the MonSter which brings me to a question. My good friend Trucker Bob has a name for his medical problem, he calls his Timmy so I think I should not continue to call the Multiple Sclerosis , the MonSter but giver her a name. I say her because I believe we can all agree here now, she is up and down, comes and goes, not reliable, moody, wait a minute I believe this is becoming more like a male as I go on with the list here, you never know when to expect or what to expect, well you all get the picture but I think a female name is still the way to go. So what can I call the MS?
See what happens when I miss one day of my journey here with you, now to get back on The encouraging journey we all should be on here we go….
Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.
Life’s Journey
Do not undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others.
It is because we are different that each of us is special.
Do not set your goals by what other people deem important.
Only you know what is best for you.
Do not take for granted the things closest to your heart.
Cling to them as you would your life, for without them, life is meaningless.
Do not let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past nor for the future.
By living your life one day at a time, you live all of the days of your life.
Do not give up when you still have something to give.
Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
It is a fragile thread that binds us to each other.
Do not be afraid to encounter risks.
It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Do not shut love out of your life by saying it is impossible to find.
The quickest way to receive love is to give love.
The fastest way to lose love is too hold it too tightly.
In addition, the best way to keep love is to give it wings
Do not dismiss your dreams.
To be without dreams is to be without hope.
To be without hope is to be without purpose.
Do not run through life so fast that you forget not only where you have been,
but also where you are going.
Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.
Let each one of us enjoy our journey and may one day we all have the ability to say and mean Life Is Simply Good. How are things with you today? Take a minute to think about your day and share something with us here that brought a smile to your face or if you need a special prayer tell us that here. Share a little and be a part of the Circle of love community that is building. Each one of you is special to me and appreciated, thank you for the time you take to stop and comment.

Hugs and prayers, you are in my thoughts every day.

That is just infinate wisdom in those words, beautiful.

Coming across your blog today made me smile. Your poem is absolutely inspirational and beautiful. Sometimes we just need a reminder like that! Thank you very much!
I’ve also never thought about naming my MonSter. I do yell at it and call it nasty names - but an actual name? Hmmm … I have always thought of it as a separate entity, an unwelcome guest, that sort of thing.
If it’s going to have a name, though, it can’t be cute and cuddly. I’m thinking one of the names of my man’s ex-girlfriends (the really mean and nasty ones). Liz or Kim. They ruined a lot and left scars. Maybe, maybe, maybe. !!

Victoria, you are an inspiration to so many of us. Your words are wonderful, but your attitude and deeds dear lady.. we could all aspire to that level and fall flat upon our kiesters… er, faces. Thank you for all you do for the rest of us! God bless.

Vicki, I think you should name the ms, missy. because she is messing with you mishieveously. Ms sucks. My bil has it as did his mother. We are all concerned for my nephew now too. ****
Today I had some good laughs, some great inspirations and felt loved by many people. I love coming here to your page and feeling the positivity that glows straight from your heart out into the world.:)
I hope you have a great day:)

Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.
Your words are sooooooooo true… so very true!!

I believe this is what we refere to as KARMA.
Attitude is everything.

The Circle of Love that you started? It’s because you were the first recipient, right? If not, YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN.
