Happy Birthday, Bernie!

Happy Birthday to our dear blogging friend Bernie!

If you read even just one post of Bernie's blog @ On My Own you know right away what a good, and kind, and gentle person Bernie is, and you get a sense of the generous spirit Bernie has. I was drawn to Bernie's blog when I read some of the cheerful and thoughtful comments she left on other blogs that I had visited, she just seemed like a ray of sunshine. Bernie always gives everyone the "benefit of the doubt", she's respectful of your point of view even if she doesn't agree with you, she's encouraging, she's uplifting, and she's an inspiration to us all.
Bernie's life hasn't been without it's share of problems, but her steadfast Faith in God, in life, in people, and her positive outlook in times of turmoil sets her head and shoulders above most.
Her love of family, friends, and Faith shine through all her posts, you can see she thrives on these, and you can see how important all these are to her life.

When I think of Bernie the word 'good' comes to mind.

I looked up the many meanings of the word good:

of favorable character; decent; that which can be relied on; high-quality; agreeable; enjoyable; pleasant; skillful; wholesome; helpful; amusing; nice; clever; first-class; considerate; superior; true; fine; virtuous; deserving of respect; right; commendable; loyal; excellent

Yes, our friend Bernie is very good indeed!

(I love this little vignette that Bernie had on her blog, it's just so perfectly Bernie!)


HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BERNIE!
