expressions

It is important to be assertive, but maintaining harmony is just as important. Say what is on your mind clearly, but don’t be overly attached to your views. Respect the points of view of others and always seek to find a happy medium,

I see personalities in each tree I meet. Depending on the time of day, where the sun is, how the shadows play on their textured bark…I’ve never come across a tree that I haven’t liked. Humans are the same. =^_^= some are easier to spend time with then others…. but everyone has the potential of being someone you can learn from, share with, and yes, even be friends with.

Learn to be a person who welcomes change, appreciate the journey you’ve been on. Life is to be lived.

Love is the elixir of life.

wood

There is something about the evolution of a tree, and what we have learned about how it grows, the different types of wood, hardness, texture, colour. I am captivated when I walk into a workshop where wood is being worked on/with. I love the many shapes, forms and characteristics of the different species.

In Wakefield the other day, the wood workers shop was not open when we went, but I got to explore his outdoor work space. Wood everywhere, it was a mini paradise.

I know that pictures are not the same as being there, but I’m sure for those of you who love this kind of “setting” as much I do… you can almost smell the wooden wonder of the place. In the back of this property is a babbling brook. YES I not only got a visual “high” I had the ambience of the running water and clear blue skies. YuppeeDoooo!!!!

We all have different ways of feeling and thinking. Let’s always accept others differences and respect one another. Remember that “different strokes for different folks” is the key to having harmonious relationships with the people around us.

garden at night

Just when I thought I had all the leaves… I noticed tonight when I let the dogs out.. that “oh NO! more leaves to fall”! How on earth did I not see them the other day… Goes to show me that I am not as observant as I think I am! This little corner got completely missed.

I must admit tho’ that I found the little vignette rather pretty. I even came back into the house to collect my camera.

my first night photos with my new Canon =^_^=

Always there is a positive to be found ! Note to self, bring in my garden “keepers” for the winter. =^_^=

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.

Fun find

Adorable little fun wood pieces all decked out for the hollidays. This was my favourite

had the vendor been around i would have likely given this little guy a home for the holidays.

there were two very vocal dogs tending the stand, indoors behind a solid door, never-the-less I don’t think they were inclined to want to make change.

Another sun filled day in the capitol. Temperature is to climb as the day wears on.

Enjoy the day everyone, be productive, efficient, whatever brings a smile. And remember, share that smile of yours, it is priceless.

Saturday 7th

Today I am a tree, I stand here before you for all to see

My years of standing in one place has meant that I have a lot of memories

of what was, and can ponder on what will be

I know that as the seasons come and go, my history

is in plain view for all to see

my wounds have healed, and many of my arms have been broken

or been taken from me, yet I am patient for I know

that with the passing of time I will return to the earth/ Universe

Meanwhile, I will stand and wait for someone to notice me

I was strong and beautiful in my youth, my outer body is now

textured, my open wounds portraits of my many experiences

I salute you dear friend as you pass by and give thanks

that you did come by to spend time in my garden, my patch on this Universe.

May many blessings of the day shower your life with joy and happiness

Please come again, there may be less of my physical self,

but, always, my spirit will be here to greet you.

boot scooting boogie

Its snowing, it is dark and I’m not ready to call it a day. I don’t often get time to just listen to music. Since I’ve started working with wool (roving) doing needle felting, I turned on YouTube, and up came George Strait doing Boot Scootin’ Boogie what a fun piece to work to. Lately everyone is so serious, things are so strained…the fun they( musicians) were having and the bouncing of the music was just what I needed.

I loved to dance.. in my younger day, we were out every night dancing ..we’d close the clubs. what happens to us .. well, ok to me. I can’t recall when I went out dancing, or even got up and danced! True I am busy and I do a lot of things I love doing.. Music however, where it was always a part of my “chilling” time.. is seldom something I gravitate to.

My father used to say ” the only thing in life that is constant is change”.. and that is very true for me. It was nice to take a trip down memory lane while listening to music this evening.

New doors to opportunity open for us everyday. it takes courage to step one foot in front of the other, it takes courage to step away from negative habits or thoughts. Our past is always part of us, with all we experience, we become who we are in the present. I am going to try to do more listening to music that makes me want to dance. =^_^=

If you have faith the size of mustard seed.. nothing will be impossible for you.
Matthew 17:20

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.
