Delray Beach- Changes

 

Our spring was short here and the cool (ish) mornings have left us with temperatures close to 80 degrees when we head out for our early morning walks.

More changes this week with heavy thunderstorms and flooding in some areas. We’re heading into the summer pattern of rain in the afternoon.

If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change. Wayne Dyer

 

You can really tell that the snowbirds are up north because it has been a little quiet on A1A on our morning walks and at the gym.  Not complaining, though!  It’s nice not having to wait to use some of the weights and machines at the gym.

Since we cannot change reality, let us change the eyes which see reality.

I actually like some change… but for me, it has to be balanced with a constant.  For example, one of my favorite characters on N.C.I.S. left and I’m not happy about it.  He was one of the constants in the many changes they’ve had.

 

Change the changeable, accept the unchangeable,and remove yourself from the unacceptable.          Denis Waitley

More changes with the young people in our lives.  We had dinner with our friend’s daughter. They are like our extended family here and we have known her since she was born.  She is now 20 and so grown up.  I couldn’t help but think of the little girl I used to babysit.  She could belt out “The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow” better than any other 4 year old.   Sigh….

 

  

When you are through changing, you are through.                                       Bruce Barton

And then there are changes we experience at ActiveRain...

 

 

May your weekend be full of welcomed changes.

Kathy, Change is truly constant. Some of it, I believe is felt and resisted more than others.  I know there are times I dig my heels in ... resisting ... not wanting to deal with the impact "changes" have on my life ... we adapt. 

 I just love your photos.

LOL Sharon Tara not surprised in the least!!!!

Michael Jacobs That Kettering was on to something. 

Wayne Martin the older I've become, the more I embrace it. 

Donald Urschalitz you're right.  And, you can't do anything about it but change how we feel about it.

A very good one Ron and Alexandra Seigel Can't wait to see what you found at the Farmer's Market. 

Bill Roberts Oh I really miss Ziva and now Tony.  

Brian England think of muggy and that's how it feels.  Very oppressive.

Oh Mimi Foster I was trying to put Castle out of my mind.   And, I don't know if you watch Criminal Minds but Derek Morgan left too.  Thank goodness for Netflix.  

As for the pictures, I use my iPhone!  And I have many apps on my phone and different camera apps I use.

Kristin Johnston, Waukesha County Realtor 414-254-6647 that's a favorite of mine as well. 

Thank you Will Hamm Change cometh and it goeth. 

Thank you Kathleen Daniels  What I have against change is that it comes when I'm not ready for it.

Change is constant . . . .  How we adjust to change becomes the key in how we make change work for us.

You can send some of the 80 degree weather here!. It's our May Gray time, and so while many days are beautiful there are times we have a pretty heavy gray marine layer. I am ready for hot weather - the 60s is great in the winter but I like it to be 75 - 80!

Thank you for the beautiful photos!
