Try putting yourself in the other person’s shoes
Put aside your own convenience for a moment and think about what would make the other person happy, or what would best serve their needs.

nature
Mother Nature, no one does natural beauty like the gifts nature offers us … we need only look around. Attended the summer Gneiss Guy crystal, mineral and fossil show/sale… to be completely surrounded by minerals and nature’s gifts.. to touch and experience the energy from the crystals and earth treasures from all over the world was energizing.
I drove down to Montreal in the morning, was back mid afternoon. The drive was full of quiet reflection, skies were blue, clouds were white and puffy…. There is something very humbling about being able to hold and experience a mineral that came from half way around the world, dug out of the bowels of the earth and handled by many hands before arriving where I could hold and take in its unique composition.
The fossils are even more intriguing. I was there very early .. doors opened at 9 yet, when I got there shortly before 10… vendors were already leaving boxes of inventory for their shops/boutiques. There was a lot of crystal, but after years of collecting, I am more selective wanting pieces now for my personal “stash”… since I not longer create one of a kind sculptures and jewelry… I can just satisfy my personal need to feed my “pleasure” chest.
I bought/adopted pieces that made me smile and drew me in with charm and delightful designs all completely presented from the earth itself. I did indulge in a few carved birds (yes from the minerals ) there are some amazing artists and creators out there.
I am filled with gratitude for the time and efforts of the artisans, “rock ” hunters, craftsmen, and entrepreneurs who bring these treasures where I can enjoy them.

relax
Sometimes we have to listen to the silence… let the mind rest…. we tend to always be on the go….
Noticing all our feelings – positive, negative and neutral – can help bring a sense of freedom.

How often do you reach the cross road… do you automatically go right, or do you take the trail less travelled?
Treasure each moment in time
Life is a continuation of “now”. Treasure each and every moment as it comes, so that you can live your life as fully as possible without regrets.

a door
When is a door more than just a door – when it lets you in to somewhere you want to be, and closes to give you privacy. I’ve shown you these beauties before.. Was in Almonte the other day got to visit them again.
These doors lead to a place of spiritual growth and personal renewal.,
WE enter and leave through doors constantly ,. some we never give a second thought to… do we ever give thanks or show appreciation for the service they render … smiles… ok… just think about how many doors you encounter in every day of your amazing life. If you had a nickel for every door you have used in your lifetime to date… I think our piggy bank would be full to bursting.
Happy Thursday everyone. – Smile . . . let someone know you care….

Wisdom comes naturally when you are humble
You will stop growing if you have a conceited or boatful mind. Always remember to be humble.

jeudi
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,
