tapestry of textures
It is only natural that you are different from others. Each of us has our own way of thinking and our own individual lifestyle. That is what makes life interesting.

dangerous
Are you in danger, of falling in love.. how about.. laughing so hard it hurts, or … meeting some one new who thinks so much like you do, they know what you are thinking almost before you do.
Risk taking, do you take risks. Would you take risk going down an unfamiliar street just because you had never gone down that street before? Are you a person who will explore that hidden alley, go down that country road to an unknown location? Can you remember the last time you stopped to talk to a complete stranger, just to have a friendly chat?
Do you or have you missed someone who you used to spend a lot of time with … until distance, or interests took you in other directions. Driving a car is and can be dangerous until you learn and know how to do so… Even then you are not always in control of “how ” the journey will proceed.
Living is risk taking, living can be dangerous, I think we have all had a bit of that learning curve in recent times…. Have you discovered new beginnings, have you rediscovered new qualities in your friends, family, surroundings, that have given you pause … Can you now define, the “dangers” in your life (lifestyles).. A dear friend said over the week-end, many of us have forgotten that love is a commitment. Got me thinking, it is often thought of as a feeling. (which we try to categorize, define, squeeze into a box of a predetermined definition) … the reality, it is a commitment, very personal, and to each one of us, it holds unlimited possibilities. Always for everyone, there is danger.. Love will always, bring change.. change is impossible to avoid – There you go.. you are a risk taker..
Love you loads and loads and loads.
Put your whole heart into everything and express your individuality. When you put your whole heart into expressing yourself, your true beauty will shine through.

when blood sugars climbs
Somehow, it crept up on me. I lay down thinking I would just rest… and I guess I passed out.. Not sure, but its happened a couple of times now.. and I am realizing that something is not right .. (little voice- you think!)
Todays message was to Strive to over come obstacles by changing my mind frame. Friends ask, “how does this happen” my first answer was “I don’t know”… OF COURSE I DO…. I am just not taking the time to address the issue with the right mind set.
After making a call to a health care provider on my team (one I could reach) Here in Canada it is a long week-end. We discussed options.. of course the usual one is going to the hospital, or speaking with a doctor.
All this to say, I have to take responsibility for my actions, (or lack of attention to my “condition” ) The body is wonderful it comprises of many parts. It is my responsibility to ensure that I give it the attention it deserves and needs. Saying so here, I am hoping that it will prompt me to not just say the words, but to live them.
I do have an appointment with my doctor on the 20th. in the morning.
The outcome is in my hands.

changing season
When the ebb and flow of life, flows easily from one season to another. On the surface, all is calm, while internally each and every molecule of life, is stirring with renewed energy.
Today is a new canvas, a new beginning, the tears of sorrow, slip silently away
as we herald a new day.
We live to die. That is the cold hard fact.
How we live, is our choice.
Maintaining harmony is just as important.

Good Humour
Be creative today, find ways to bring happiness to someone else (others).
Always be cheerful, happy and good-humoured. When you make effort to be cheerful and happy, you will naturally begin to feel that way.

will the circle be
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.

Remain true to yourself… never be afraid to express your true feelings.

sound of silence
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.
