will the circle be

broken, or … roll into eternity
once there was a strong bond
that with years of wear and tear compressed into
a band of steel so tight,so unyielding that
when time began to erode the composition
the reason for its existence started to fade
only the inner knowledge that once the fire that had forged that band
was slipping away. Soon when the dust returns to dust
the band of gold that once shone with meaning
will disappear .. into the eternity of time and space
and we will no longer be, you will be free
you always were you know
cages are created by the human mind
sadly when love is caged, it dies.
be free, love again
this time .. it will be forever. Q

Be thankful to your parents and to your ancestors. You are here today because the “torch of life” has been continuously passed down. always remember to be thankful.

Is there a sound to grief. When a loved one dies.. leaves our world leaving us to adjust to continuing on the journey on our own. No one told me of “grief attacks”or the immediate excruciating pain that can be triggered by a “memory”

I was not told to expect exhaustion and disruption, I was told that early grieving is perhaps the hardest work you will ever do.

Without your former companion, you no longer have a “mirror” to reflect back to you who you are and what you want in life. Now only you can furnish the answers by getting to know yourself.
-Dorothy Edgerton, ( learningto live alone)

We experience so many emotions after a loved one passes,when we think surely life is leveling … we are hit with an ongoing echo.. of loss, pain, and a fresh waves of grief.

Grieving requires an enormous energy, but pretending that you are not grieving requires even more.

It is important to say “Thank you” Everything that appears in front of you is all material for you to improve yourself whether it i’s food, people or things. Learn to accept everything, whether it is something you like or not.

UNCONDITIONAL LOVE NEVER GOES AWAY -it transforms from season to season. You may not always see or hear it. But like the steady beating of your heart, it lives within you and permeates all of you, forever and always

Oyashikiri.

A big thank you to my friends/family and love ones, who are reaching out to me. I love you.This moment of tears will pass.. Love heals.

Stick with it

Sometimes you want to just throw in the towel and say, “I give up” but that’s the time for you to dig deep and push through. Your sincere effort will invite a good outcome.

there are many paths we can take, choose wisely

We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a big difference, ignore the small daily differences we can make which, over time, add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee.
Marian Wright Edelman

I couldn’t wait for success, so I went ahead without it.

May the fourth

It is a wonderful day, the skies are a dull gray, with the promise of wet clouds and lots of humidity and rain. Taking out the recycle to the curb I couldn’t help but look down at the empty street, both ways, the garbage bags all neatly sucked into the curb waiting for pick up. Green recycle bins stand erect little little soldiers waiting to be relieved of their waste for composting.

Yup another day in the city. Ah we will have the postal worker delivering today, (no delivery on week-ends here in Canada). Smiles at all her readers, can you just feel the excitement of “expectation” … this will be a really interesting day, and it will be fun and meaningful. Look it is has already begun, I am having morning coffee with YOU.

On a more serious note, we have people in our lives that are undergoing surgery today, dealing with medical issues, anxiety. Whatever their concerns, let us join together in prayer … I will do special prayers today at 10 a.m. Eastern. IF you are available to do so, please join me in a prayer of healing. Let us expand our spiritual energies into sharing the burden of worry with those around us.

If it is Star Wars Day, then for sure.. Let the force with be with you .. now and always.

new beginnings

The everyday things you do will show when it really counts. If you have a tendency to be careless about everyday matters, you cannot expect to perform well at crucial times.
Perfect Liberty 2020.3.

Sometimes the pieces of your life will fall smoothly into place. Even so, there is an edge to every piece of the puzzle, how it fits, can be seamless, so that you really barely know that it was an individual piece .. now that it is placed it becomes part of a greater/bigger picture. Yet within the picture it will always be one piece of a whole, and that whole will have its own edges.

Are you a person who likes the safety of being part of the puzzle, or do you want to be the puzzle.

when two hearts collide

I have a dear friend who also has a blog, and who as a writer helps other writers by giving them a picture and asking them to write a story around what they see. Going through pictures for one of my other blogs, I came across this picture.. It spoke to me of so many possibilities that I thought I would try it out on this blog.

Who are these men, what is the storyline here. The postures, the looks, what do they tell you. Mollie you inspired this.. what do you see? Can you feel the emotions, what is happening here, or could be happening.

I look forward to some input here. I think I know where I would go with this story line, but… I’m going to stand aside and let you dear reader, tell me.

Today’s calendar said ‘Good or Bad, It is your Mirror.”

the 25th day, says.. “Let’s find the joy in Everything” Are you looking for things to complain about? Let’s change our perspective and live a cheerful and joyful life.

Each personality is an individual, each with a heart, feelings and emotions that belong to them and them alone, … in life… we are all a continuation of Nature’s Energy field. What happens when two force fields collide?

Stay safe.. stay strong… be happy!

today 23rd

Be a person who can recognize the sincerity of others. When you put your whole heart into things you will be able to notice the sincere, acts of others in the subtle things they do, and appreciate them that much more.

Some moments stay with us forever, while other moments drift into another building a world of abstract wonders. The memories gathered reflect in our personal rainbows. Q
