Üdvözöllek! Meleg idő van a héten erre. Jelenleg 34 fokot mutat a hőmérő, ez már nekem sok. Az UV sugárzás is magas. Így maradunk a lakásban. Hajnalban és este lehet locsolni a kertet. Holnap reggel el kell mennem időpontra, remélem jól fogom tűrni a hőséget. Most a vízparton nyaralóknak kedvez az idő. Vigyázz nagyon magadra. További szép napokat a hétre. Ölelésem, Éva

“All life is a circle. The atom is a circle, orbits are circles, the earth, moon, and sun are circles. The seasons are circles. The cycle of life is a circle: baby, youth, adult, elder. The sun gives life to the earth who feeds life to the trees whose seeds fall to the earth to grow new trees. We need to practice seeing the cycles that the Great Spirit gave us because this will help us more in our understanding of how things operate. We need to respect these cycles and live in harmony with them.”
Once there was a little village where lived a blind man. Although, he was very blind and couldn’t have been bothered by darkness at night. He did, however, always carry with him a lighted lamp when he went out at night.
One fine night, he encountered a young group of travelers returning from supper. The traveler immediately noticed he was blind but was surprised he had a lighted lamp in his hand. They began making remarks about him and mocking him. Finally, one of them asked, “Hey, Man! Why do you have a lantern if you’re blind?!”
“Yes,” the blind man admitted, “I am blind and have no vision. And this lamp may not be of any use to me. But, bright light being carried by me is for people like you who can see. At night the streets are dark, and you may not see the way. You may even not see the blind man coming and bump into me. That is why I am carrying this lantern.”
The young travelers apologized for their conduct.
Moral: Before judging others, we should consider things from their perspective. Always be polite and open-minded.

Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. Ephesians 6:4 EHV ~ Father's day Sunday Blessings my friend.
Or which one of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him! Matthew 7:9-11 ESV
