Sometimes we have to deviate from what was to what is.. Artistic expression in a virtual setting, with music to flavour the viewing.
Stay connected everyone, discover or rediscover that “loving feeling”
Enjoy the changes in your life. Things around you are constantly changing with the times. Take on the challenging and new experiences as materials for self expression.

There is a door set in the wall – it is closed
on each side it is flanked by a window, shut tight
the moss on the cement blocks leading to the door,
suggests that the steps have been there for awhile
how many times have the window panes been kissed by the rain
just when did the house fall silent
are there finger prints on the windows, of children looking out
If I knock, will someone come to the door
The house is so small and still, I can see right through to the back door.
just waiting for some kind of response .. I feel the house shift
it has been awhile, but it can still hear echos of its former lives
it sits silently aware that for a brief moment in time, someone came to visit
standing proud, it feels good, once more it served a purpose and was rewarded with a moment of appreciation.
Old homes, buildings, fences, cars, trucks, they are reminders that life is fragile, and fleeting, now more than any other time, is not the time to squander the joys of living, the true meaning of friendships, and genuine caring and understanding of the people, communities around us.
It is important to say “thank you” Everything that appears in front of you is all material for you to improve yourself whether its food, people or things. Learn to accept everything, whether it is something you like or not.

Don’t give up! Stick with it, as many times as it takes. 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

Good Relationships begin by greeting each other. Acts of respect and courtesy are reflections of how much we value others. Make it a point to be the first to greet your family, people at work and around the neighborhood.

Emotions, a vast array of feelings, that come and go endlessly in the various corners of our minds. Some are overwhelming, some very specific, and others, specific to a moment in time, place or person .. a memory, a silent tear, the warmth of a smile, a love shared.
Today with social distancing, many are experiencing a tremendous overload of emotions that come unsuspectingly to the forefront of our days/nights. Not so easy now to just push aside by picking a distraction to occupy the mind till the moment passes.

The other day I had parked the car.. gotten out.. wanted to stretch my legs. People are not out and about. I had the empty road pretty much to myself. I was enjoying the moment when I was pulled from my daydreaming by the sound of birds on a mission.
There was no stopping them, they had clear blue skies, the temperature was mild and filled with a promise of a new season.. Babe they were flying high, and loving it. I realized how lucky I was to be out there in the fresh air,the warm sun lazily teasing me out of my jacket… Living life is a beautiful awesome feeling. Do not squander your days/nights…
No one can 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.

The potential is always there. Always. Everything has a purpose. maybe now, with a different pace in our lives, we will have time to reflect on the new opportunities, challenges, and possibilities that have been perhaps present, but not necessarily appreciated as they could have been.
“Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding”
Kahlil Gibran
No human relation gives one possession in another – every two souls are absolutely different. In friendship or in love, the two side by side raise hands together to find what one cannot reach alone.
Kahlil Gibran
Use things for what they are meant for. everything has a purpose. Let’s use things to their fullest potential.
