Day Off – Mary Oliver
Hope that you ALL enjoy a day OFF today, or at least one day this week. Please make time for yourself and enjoy the Silver Lining that it will inevitably bring.
International Women's Day
Today is International Women’s Day. Who knew? I sure didn’t, but it is the Silver Lining of my day! Please allow me to tell you a wee bit about it. According to its website, International Women’s Day has been observed since in the early 1900’s…1908 to be exact when 15,000 women marched through New York City demanding… Continue reading International Women's Day

Recently I came… Continue reading Snowflakes by Andrew Osokin

Unfortunately, my answer is, “I’m still looking.” It’s my fault, not the book’s! My mind has been so preoccupied by a project that I haven’t… Continue reading Question of the Week
Contentment – Michael Ryan
A friend recently shared this beautiful poem with me. This idea of Contentment stopped me in my tracks and I, of course, had to share it with you. Hope that you enjoy this Silver Lining as much as I am!

Recently I cane across this sweet and inspiring video that I just had to share with you. I watched it once and then, immediately, watched it again. It was the Silver Lining of my day and I hope it is the same for you! Here are the suggestions for you. I can’t tell you how much I… Continue reading How to Be Happy
