Hope is here, that's my choice

I was wondering what to post since it has been quite a while since I posted? This isn't always easy, and unlike a more talented person upstairs, I don't have a habit of posting real interesting stuff. (for example she has posted a lot of pictures of trees with leaves on the branches the last little while) On the other hand I had to chuckle since even though I had not posted anything in almost two weeks or so, I noticed from the site meter that gives me a weekly count on how many people look at my blog, something interesting. Guess a site meter is a little overkill since I don't open this blog up to the "public" and likewise since I seldom get more than an average of "one view per day", at the most. So here is the interesting news. Not having posted in a couple of weeks or so the last weeks recorded views per day went up 100%. There you go, no news is good news and attracts viewers on this station.

So why did I post this picture of this poor sad looking tree. I guess it is all in how you look at things................................... which is itself a reasonable subject for this post. It is "our choice" how we look at things. The title for this tree picture could easily be "Hope". ...................................................................
