Life is really simple. If we let it be. Sometimes, we have to be active in letting it be. A simple and wise blessing that hangs upon the wall in our favorite little restaurant. Found it fitting for a “simple” post during a chaotic week.
There’s one similar hanging on the wall of our local truck stop that goes like this:
“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!”

How are those wild ponies coming? (or is that part of full week you’re alluding to?) 😉 DM
I have seen that one too and love it! Those ponies are coming along…some much slower than others. A few already have owners and are being ridden. Some are just allowing touching and grooming in their stalls. It’s been slow going.
Some times we get so wrapped up in the details and the busy-ness of things that we forget that the simple way/approach/blessing really is the best! Thanks for the reminder 🙂
