DREAM-DO-BELIEVE-THINK- & BE YOU! “Surround yourself with the dreamers and the doers, the believers and thinkers, but most of all, surround yourself with those who see the greatness within you, even when you don't see it yourself.” Edmund Lee. JUST THINKING... all that we place in our daily life- positive or negative, good or bad —impacts who we are, what we do and how we look at ourselves & others. It’s contagious... if you want to be great, do great things and positively impact others— shed the whiners, negative nellies & those that never bring joy or even think about calling you first. Kick out the takers and the “allaboutme” junk that drains your creativity, energy, joy and love. Get back to the dreaming, the doing, the believing & the thinking! Get back to you. It is your choice- everyday. . . . #dreamer #doer #believer #thinker #allaboutme #joy #love #lifeisgood #greatness #getridofthewhiners #cleartheclutter #justthinking #tjnv #oxfordexchange (at Oxford Exchange) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo5gSD8A2yL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17ds1dfeami38

BUSY-NESS — “Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing.” THOMAS EDISON ....... Just Thinking- so many get this confused!!!seemingly... (at Edison & Ford Winter Estates)

“Don’t forget about the blue skies, sunrise & all the space between.... so stare up through the clouds. And at least you know you’re always looking up.” JUST THINKING each morning begins with such grandeur, so full of magnificent color. The birds sing with joy. It really makes me wonder how so many people awake to the same sky with anger, bitterness & contempt toward others and life in general. —- Look up, soak it in & sing!!! #sing #joy #sunrise #nofilter #blueskies #fla #florida #grandeur #blueskiesandsunshine #everythinginbetween #lyrics #lyricsquote #valencia #thespacebetween Songwriters: Brendan Walter / George Ciukurescu / Jonathan Perry / Max Soria / Shane Henderson (at Fort Myers, Florida)

REJOICE & BE STRONG "My heart rejoices in the Lord! The Lord has made me strong. Now I have an answer for my enemies; I rejoice because you rescued me. No one is holy like the Lord! There is no one besides you; there is no Rock like our God. Stop acting so proud and haughty! Don’t speak with such arrogance! For the Lord is a God who knows what you have done; he will judge your actions."

The sky after Irma - OUTSKIRTS OF HEAVEN... "My grandpa taught me about buck knifes and shot guns How to cast an old Zebco And how to work a stick shift He taught me the bible about all twelve disciples And he made sure that I know there's life after this With pearly gates and streets of gold He said if I just believe that's where I'll go Lord when I die I wanna live On the outskirts of Heaven Where there's dirt roads for miles Hay in the fields and fish in the river Where there's dogwood trees and honey bees And blue skies and green grass forever Lord when I die, I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven Now it says in the King James in the Almighty's kingdom He mentions a mansion that he's built just for me Now I'd gladly trade it for a farm house with acreage And a back yard that's shaded and a squeaky front porch swing That's where I wanna hang my wings When I die I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven Where there's dirt roads for miles Hay in the fields and fish in the river Where there's dogwood trees and honey bees And blue skies and green grass forever So Lord when I die, I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven Yeah Yeah, the good Lord knows me He knows I need blue skies and green grass forever Lord when I die I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven Yeah, when I die I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven" . #outskirts #outskirtsofheaven #craigcampbell #irma #clouds #godsgrace #sunset #florida #blessed #flsunset #floridaisblessed (at Siesta Key, Florida)

PEACE - "When I was six years old I rode a roller coaster for the first time with my older brothers. As soon as we hit a turn at a high speed I started to yell: “Stop this thing right now! I want to get off!” Of course the roller coaster didn’t stop, and I had to “white knuckle” it, hanging on tight for the rest of the ride. Sometimes life can feel like an unwanted roller coaster ride, with “downhill” drops and hairpin curves we never see coming. When unexpected difficulties occur, the Bible reminds us that our best recourse is to place our trust in God. It was in a tumultuous time when invasion threatened his country that the prophet Isaiah, inspired by the Spirit, discerned this powerful promise from the Lord: “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you” (Isa. 26:3). The peace our Savior gives us as we turn to Him “transcends all understanding” (Phil. 4:7) Lord, help me to trust in You so that I may live in peace." James Banks --- JUST THINKING- I wish you peace... beyond all understanding. #peace #trust #faith #steadfast #discernment #promises #tjnv #tn #peacebeyondunderstanding #philipians47 #john1427 #isaiah26 #iwishyoupeace #tennessee #godisgreat #justthinking #thegoodlife (at Old Stone Fort State Archaeological Park)

GENTLE ON MY MIND - "It's just knowing that the world Will not be cursing or forgiving When I walk along some railroad track and find That you're movin' on the back roads By the rivers of my memory And for hours you're just gentle on my mind."
