Morphologically, trillium plants produce no true leaves or stems above ground. The “stem” is just an extension of the horizontal rhizome and produces tiny, scale like leaves (cataphylls). The above-ground plant is technically a flowering scape, and the leaf-like structures are bracts subtending the flower.(def. internet)
Take care of things as they come to your attention
When something comes to mind, it is a sign from God. Take care of whatever comes to mind right away.
your true self is revealed in the smallest of actions
Your personality shows in even the smallest actions you take. Regardless of whether it is a minute task or a monumental job, put your whole heart into it.
It is truly amazing when you look back at yourself this year compared to last year, or today compared to yesterday, and realize how much you have improved and changed.
Hello this is a picture taken in NZ the other day, it is going into fall there.
I’m waking up here to a spring day… here in Eastern Canada.
Same week .. same world, but in very different parts of the planet.
Shirl went for her walk at home in NZ and I had my stroll here in Canada.
Isn’t life grand… Think about it, Eliza is starting to share her photos of her spring flowers ..(excellent moments of shared beauty) she is in the States…
We are so lucky/blessed that the technology we have today, allows us to experience “visual” gifts that before .. we would have had to wait days, weeks, even a month, for our friend to take a picture, have it developed, then get it ready to post… Once posted that letter would take days, weeks to travel to your mailbox.
There is much we have to be thankful, let’s remember to give thanks…
Appreciate your friendships… they are part of your personal treasure chest.
We are all here today… we may not be tomorrow.. This is life..
Think about it, even when you stop physically moving, and you sit down… your internal organs, your heart, the blood racing through your veins… It is constantly humming along…. your breathing will slow down, your whole essence of Being will slow and calm..
Let’s not even bring up your gray cells, that intangible “thing” science has called our brain … it doesn’t consider the word time..
We simply are... we seem to accept that our computers, cell phones, iPads.. need recharging, need extra storage, Pause reflect.. our bodies/minds need attention and care… When was the last time you did a personal update? clear your cache? get rid of obsolete unused and no longer required items/thoughts?
Never judge a book by its cover… or think you can “know” someone or something, by just glancing… three friends on a walk, see the same tree stump, not one .. will see and take in the same stump in the same way.
The only thing that is constant in life… is change.
There is something captivating about seeing the trees shake off the winter pallor and begin their transformation — soon tiny buds will adorn the waking branches… you can feel the anticipation in the cool crisp morning air.
