Good Friday Morning

Life in Christian County, Kentucky...

Our Mennonite neighbors have been to Good Friday services this morning. I believe they reserve this day for worship and meditation and don't do any work except for the care that is essential for their animals.

Isn't is comforting to know that we live in a country where a relgious faith can choose such a life--horses and carriages, no wires to the outside world?

These pictures also remind me of a time when my husband and I were travelling through Amish country in PA. Our dog at the time could not keep himself from barking at the carriage horses as we drove past. Luckily those horses don't spook at much!

CONTENTMENT: Keep your heart free from hate, your mind from worry, live simply, expect little, give much, sing often, pray always, forget self, think of others and their feelings, fill your heart with love, scatter sunshine. These are the tried links in the golden chain of contentment.

IT IS STILL BEST to be honest and truthful; to make the most of what we have; to be happy with simple pleasure; and to be cheerful and have courage when things go wrong.
(Laura Ingalls Wilder, 1867-1957)
