Needle felted with sheep’s wool that I sourced from shepherds in the area, back in the days when felting was not a common craft / art form in this area…. I found one shepherd who shared my passion, she is the one who had dyed the roving…. that I used for skin tones. I still have my needles and I keep a stash of roving “in case” … I get “the urge”… felting is a relaxing form of expression .. and it helps me keep in touch with “nature”. I would drive the back roads looking for sheep.. Drive up to strangers wanting to know about their charges.. how often they sheared, what did they do with the wool….
I walked the pastures, enjoyed the sheep dogs that herded the sheep, met wonderful grounded souls.. who loved the animals and the earth as much as I did.. I pray and thank the Universe regularly for the life I have been blessed with.
Its not about the quantity of friends one has, it is the quality of the friendships…. in this I am also blessed,

Yup.. there are days when all we want to do is hibernate, distance ourselves from activity, from media, negative news/attitudes… it happens.
Its’ OK. It really is. We don’t always need to interact and be present for others.. sometimes.. we have to take time.. make time.. for ourselves and what matters to us.

A wooly face that always makes me smile.
Everything that happens to you is material for growth.
Approach everything with firm belief that, “it will turn out for the best” Anything can be used as material for progress and development.

Ok.. yes you’ve seen this message before… did you listen… did you consider the message?
Have you slowed down the pace of your life? I just received a very interesting video .. these days I can’t always tell if its Ai or ? because it has information that many will find useful, I’m leaving a link to it at the end of this post. Its about being an older “person”, this video is by a woman and aimed at women, but the message is important to everyone. We are all on the path that leads to “aging”.
Let’s set higher goals and work to improve ourselves
Let’s work towards our goals while keeping a clear vision of what we hope to achieve. Your strong conviction and Makoto (sincere effort) will help drive you towards accomplishing what you set out to do.

Sunday
a wee owl resting in the trees.
The picture has been cropped so that the location of the wee one is not easily determined. Yes I am one of the nature lovers who protects the wild life .. from onlookers who come and destroy the peace and tranquility of the woodlands …. it is unfortunate, but I have seen too many scenes of mobs who treat the wee ones like a sideshow.
Good morning everyone..
You gain strength through your hardships
Whatever you learn easily or master effortlessly tends to be forgotten. The lessons you gain through repeated mistakes are what gives you genuine strength.

Please pray for world peace. These are troubled times.

Monday
With a prayerful mind, put your heart into everything you do.
The secret of contentment is the realization that life is a gift not a right.
But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we carry nothing out. (1.Timothy 6:6.7)

You can run, you can hide, but you can never escape the nattering of your mind. Ignoring it won’t make it go a way. ……………………………………………………… deal with it …………………..it is your only hope!
Find a place you are comfortable with, where you can be alone with your thoughts, and just let them come .. accept that the thoughts will drift in and out.. and let them.. pay attention to where the tension is in your body and … try to just RELAX… if you are not used to it.. you will have to take a deep breath, hold it.. then let it go… do it a few times… it works.
You are worth giving your SELF 5 – 10 minutes of TIME OUT…. from outside pressures and noise.
