Wednesday
Solid as a Rock
Memories might not always be front and center but they are always part of who we are.
Every day, is a new forever
Don’t squander it.

silence
I can no longer sit like this for hours on end, but I can still sit. and. Sometimes I simply lie back on a deck chair and watch the clouds.
Try it. You might like it. No cell phone, no music, just you and the sky!
Come on… let that shoulder tension go…. imagine being out under that beautiful blue sky… hear the birds off in the distance. Smell that early morning wisp of air that is gently tousling your hair…
Today is a brand new day. Enjoy!

Friday
Hey you listening to me?
How often have you been having a conversation with someone, when you suddenly realize they aren’t really listening.. They may be hearing you, but they are not listening.??

Saturday
a little hide-a-way
tucked far away
a distance from any super highway
an idyllic get-a-way
where I watch the sheep rest & play
and lazily let the days
drift from April to May.
I am sooooo ready.

-35 degrees
Bitter cold yes… wind chill had it between -38 and -35 depending on who you were listening to on the radio. Did I care.. no… the air was frigid, Time stood still. The birds came to eat, but they were not going to hang around…. I went back to the car to warm my hands before going back to do the suet. I don’t wear gloves, it makes it too awkward to open the suet cages. I brought some lettuce leaves and I had some soya sprouts left over.. I took them further into the bush, closer to a big fallen tree… and half buried it so that rabbit could still find it… I included an offering of rabbit pellet food…. being he/she is wild they may not be interested in the pellets.. but I left them anyway.
When it is as cold as it was, there is a crispness underfoot when you walk over the snow… I could feel the icy fingers of the wind as it found a way to my bare arms under my sweater sleeves. I didn’t have to explain that I wouldn’t be lingering… After putting out the food, and giving the jays extra peanuts… I got back into my car to warm up. I knew I would be stopping to capture the pictures you see above.. the woodlands are so beautiful with the sculptured snow on the out stretched branches.
Winter is a beautiful time of the year, right now the Winterlude festival is on in the city. If you are near, and can make it to where the ice sculptures are… you are in for a treat. It is cold yes, but you can dress warmly, the ice castles and winter ice slides, the skating on the canal, all make for an winter adventure that is exciting and rewarding…, After the fun of exploring all that is being offered .. you can sit with a hot chocolate, or a beaver tail, and simply bask in the wonders of life.
LIFE IS FILLED WITH MOMENTS, SOMETIMES HAPPY AND AT TIMES INCONVENIENT. IT IS IMPORTANT TO FIRST ACCEPT EVERY SITUATION AS IT OCCURS AND TRY TO ACCEPT AND UNDERSTNA IT FOR WHAT IT IS.

Some times a picture = a thousand words.
Snow can turn a world into a wonderland
No one an take away the joy you get from putting your whole heart into something.
The joy you feel when you’ve put your all into something is yours and yours alone. Nobody can take that away from you.

dreaming
Snow has been falling for hours. Temperatures have dropped significantly. The milder weather of last week, with thawing and rain means that now… walking will be dangerous for all who walk without care. Why? because, the snow is so white, inviting, the wind has died down enough that there is no blowing snow to blind you when it whips around your face. the lovely light fluffy snow is hiding black ice in places where previously there had been a puddle or any irregular dips, cracks in the sidewalks.
I’m dreaming of strolling through landscapes of gentle meandering walkways through manicured gardens with interesting buildings to enjoy. If you saw the virtual blog with the Taoist build, you might enjoy exploring this site.. After seeing yesterday’s blog a friend sent me the link to this beautiful location. Here is the link. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Cozy%20Cove/188/98/24 Note this is an adult sim. It is called Koromo a Tsukete Ageta, Cosy Cove.

Dance like no one is watching
When you think “I’ve got it” Think again!
It is easy to misinterpret the situation and jump to conclusions. Always have a humble attitude and double check to make sure.
