"My Castle, My Fortress, My Home."
Recalling memories from my childhood, my dear mom used to tell me how she felt about having her own home. She admitted that she had felt like a real Queen in her own home, and that fact had been a blessing and a gift from God to grant her a home. Of course, my dear mother transmitted the same sort of feeling to me, her only child. Yes!! My own home is my castle, my fortress, and I am the Queen there...
When I grew older, I met my very best friend in New York City. His name was Frank. He was a Veteran from the US Air Force, and we met at a job in a State Agency in the Enforcement Bureau. We became inseparable pals until the last day in his most dearest life...
Frank used to tell me in our endless conversations about the way an English man would feel about his own home.
Frank said, "To an English man, his home is his castle, his fortress, and he is the King of his home." My best friend and my dearest mother told me the same things. I'll never forget those words...
Many years later, I would have a beautiful Seal-Point Siamese cat, and I would call him Frank after my best friend. Then, he would be the King of his own home, and he would roam around his Queen cuddling and wagging his cat tale with an immortal and tantalizing attitude...
Frank and I had our philosophy towards life and an every day living. Our wisdom is laid before the world, since we acknowledge that life is too short, and since tomorrow is not promised to anyone, we must live today to the fullest of our ability.
All is well on this day, with this moment, in this place. Do whatever you do and experience whatever you need to experience. Let go of the need to place judgment on how things are. Choose instead to feel immensely and sincerely thankful for all that is, whatever it may be.
Peacefully accept the entirety of this moment, and you'll gain access to the fullness of its value. Choose to make full use of the unique opportunity that now presents itself to you. Simply allow yourself to easily and peacefully do what you have chosen to do. Let your thoughts and actions be a source of inspiration and positive focus.
See the troubles, frustrations and disappointments as the opportunities they are to give you lessons of life. Know that you are fully capable of finding the goodness and value in every situation. Feel the limitless power of your own awareness and the priceless miracle of your own being. Be at peace with it, and let life's goodness flow.
Thank you in advance for reading!! God Bless!!

Hello sweet Crystal,
Oh, wooowww!! I am so happy to see you visiting my site and sharing your lovely comment, dearest Sister in the Lord, Crystal.
You sound like a loving caring and sweet lady.
I stand in awe realizing how many readers have joined my blogs. Yes!! Now, I am talking about Frank, my best friend, and Frank, my cat, who reminds me of him. Frank has gone to Heaven with the Lord. He is in peace now. I shall meet Frank sooner or later. It makes me feel good to talk and write about him, about my dear mother, my father, my grandmother, my aunts, my cats and dear friends who have still stayed with me or departured from this world into Eternity. This blog that I have recently composed is all about a journey into the present and past times, and a journal of different sort of situations that I encounter in my daily life, wherever my soul may take me. In every situation, I praise God for His unconditional love, blessings and mercy. God bless you, Crystal, and all those you love!!
In God's Garden,
Starry.
