Sending you all love and happy thoughts today and please remind yourselves what a wonderful world we really live in despite the ups and downs of everyday life. Beauty is all around us.....many times in the simplest things.......
~~~The happiness of my life depends on the quality of my thoughts~~~
~~~Of all the things I wear, my expression is the most important~~~
~~~~My mind is like a parachute...it functions only when open~~~~
"I see of green........ red roses too
I see them bloom..... for me and for you
And I think to myself.... what a wonderful world.
I see skies of blue..... clouds of white
Bright blessed days....dark sacred nights
And I think to myself .....what a wonderful world.
The colors of a rainbow.....so pretty ..in the sky
Are also on the faces.....of people ..going by
I see friends shaking hands.....sayin.. how do you do
Theyre really sayin......i love you.
I hear babies cry...... I watch them grow
Theyll learn much more.....than Ill never know
And I think to myself .....what a wonderful world
The colors of a rainbow.....so pretty ..in the sky
Are there on the faces.....of people ..going by
I see friends shaking hands.....sayin.. how do you do
Theyre really sayin...I ....love....you.
I hear babies cry...... I watch them grow
A whole lot more than Ill never know)
And I think to myself .....what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself .......what a wonderful world.
Oh yeah......" (that's my favorite part)
~~~~Louis Armstrong~~~~
**Note to Bagman........call me dude.........seriously :)

amen, sister... it is indeed a wonderful world in so many respects... you being in it is surely one of them! xox... annie
ReplyDeleteOh Reggie, I love that song! So true - it is the simple things that bring us the greatest pleasure!
ReplyDeleteit is a wonderful world If you feel happy. but if you are stressed out and depression has overcome all your faculties then this world is not worth living!!!!! This is the attitude most people have including me
ReplyDeleteThe best period is childhood when no problems are there.
Hey! such cute kids. You feel like hugging them
Great reminder...it is a wonderful world!
ReplyDelete~AM
An emotion that little ones have, and most adults don't is "simple delight." Those that nurture that emotion, become like Louis Armstrong: delighted, delightful, and delicious company! (love the second baby pic: she/he is delighted with life)
ReplyDeleteOh yeah!

A pleasant song and a cool laid-back way to start the day. Hope your is fabulous -- as always. -- Chuck
ReplyDeleteThat's my favorite part too -OHHHHH Yeah!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful babies! Love that song too.
ReplyDeleteReally lovely Reggie!! Thank you (:
ReplyDeleteBeautiful child! We must keep this planet safe for future generations...
ReplyDeleteI love Pepper the puppy in today's "Daily Puppy". I would love to adopt her, but don't know if it is possible. I have an older dog to consider & a husband. But, oh, she is so adorable. Please tell me there is no chance she will be "put down" if not adopted soon...
I love that song! It is a wonderful world. Mine would be slightly more wonderful if it would STOP raining for a bit. :-)
ReplyDeleteA beautiful post - Thinking of you.
ReplyDeleteHappy day to you Reggie Girl!

ReplyDeleteI am posting with the Friday Shoot Out group tomorrow and am excited to join, so please, sign me up!!!!!! I left a post for Patty and one for Gordon. These were Barry's instructions.=D
ReplyDeleteI saw Louis Armstrong on broadway when I was 17. Wonderful World is a favourite of mine. ( have to wait for it ) OH, YEAH!!!!!!!!!! Great post.
Reading it puts smiles in my heart.
Oh Reggie, I love that song! So true - it is the simple things that bring us the greatest pleasure! Like yesterday me hanging out with my guys on a beautiful day enjoying life as we know it!
ReplyDeleteYou poor girl! Hasn't Bagman called yet? I'll have to talk to him.
ReplyDeleteA real attitude of gratitude Reggie Girl, that's all it takes...and a smile from a baby!
ReplyDeleteI really needed this post, big time! I have been overwhelmed and feeling blue and needed this little shot in the arm of getting my act together. It is a beautiful world out there, just need to get the eyes open some days to see it all! Love that song, found myself singing along with your printed words. Thanks ReggieGirl. Sorry that I have not been around all week, too much work keeping me from the computer. Have been thinking of you though!! have a good weekend, Debby

ReplyDeleteOne of my most favorite songs ever. I danced to this with both my boys at their weddings! Precious pictures.
ReplyDeleteBagman gets so frustrated, Seriously, because you always say call and your phone is unlisted. Probably a good thing too!
ReplyDeleteLove this song. And you're right, even with all the craziness, it's still a wonderful world.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the happy thoughts and the reminder.
ReplyDeleteBabies and children,
ReplyDeleteThey make the most wonderful photos.
Pity right now, in New Zealand, you just can't simply take any one's photos. Today, I had 600 kids all dressed up, and I took imaginery photos.
A wonderful post to get my day started. You're right,of all the things i wear, my expression is the most important. Like this!
