a story, people,time,places

Don’t worry .. this is a short story =^_^= I was recently asked to go through long forgotten boxes (husband doing a clean up and rearranging in part of the house).. I got to go through several boxes of pictures. Pictures, tons of pictures, there was nothing to do but sit down with a box and begin.

What emerged were pictures of another lifetime,in fact ..many life times . People, places long gone from my present. Although I did remember some of the moments, if I’m honest, many moments captured were really no longer part of my current bank of memories, and most of the people who I came across would be total strangers to me now. I wouldn’t recognize them unless they came up to me and said, “hey, remember me…”

Like pebbles in the ocean

being washed in by the waves

daily our lives change…

sometimes the changes are subtle

other times, the change is drastic

shattering your life pattern

so that nothing remains the same…

the quiet slow changes do the same,

only you have time to assimilate

and are always on top of your game.

The memories were and are good … I realized that although at the time I might not have appreciated the growing pains…

( IF there was any) but in seeing the happy faces, and the recalling the moments/events/happenings, I felt really blessed to have had such caring and loving friends.

People change, friends drift apart, what was, was, and what is, IS. The saying “when one door closes, another opens” is so bang on. When we enjoy life, with all the opportunities we are offered, greet the day with enthusiasm, our days become more rewarding. Not matter what it is, what the day bring, really get into it. Put your heart into everything you do, don’t squander the adventures offered by the Universe.

When you go through a door, don’t just open it, walk through, and forget it, each door tells a story, make sure you leave your presence known. What will your story be today.

Smile – Happiness is…

a story that begins with a door!

I cried

I cried today

I cried yesterday

I could not stem the tears

for they had been waiting years

locked somewhere deep inside

somehow they found a way

to have their say

they were not bitter

simply sad

was there pain in the tears that rained

down my cheeks, one by one

leaving tear stains that betrayed

the sadness in my heart

I recognized the pain,

what I don’t understand is why…

why now ………

emotions, they are a way for the body to express feelings that have been locked away

we can hide from our”selves” for only so long, then when least expected, someone, or something touches the right button, and a door swings open.

the raw emotion of another time, place or experience comes to life and you are open and vulnerable to the lesson (challenge) you didn’t deal with before.

In life, we face a new day, every day, each one is unique and special, no two are the same, and no two people are alike.

It is when you admit to, and claim the pain, sadness, grief or sense of loss, that you finally regain a footing to understanding.

… we cope much better when have friends and loved ones who care, and lend support when we falter, they can’t respond to us though .. if we are silent about what is happening to us.

Crying is healing and revitalizing, it is part of life.

What was

Still is ………. only now

the passion, the love

is a memory

that haunts the visitors

of today

a traveller of the Universe

I love and live forever

no more, no less

always

history

Can we obliterate the past

If we turn the other away

will the memory be erased

like a brush wipes away the chalk marks

on a well used blackboard

We edit, rewrite, correct and revise

even with all the amendments

the past is still present

in our minds, even echoed in

perhaps diluted form, but repeated

never-the-less

for even when a lesson is learned

lt only gives birth to yet another

phase of the adventure we embarked on

when we were first conceived.

no more… …no less

Harmony

A monastery in Paro Bhutan called the Tiger’s Nest.

My day started with what I was finding to be a very vexing problem. I was doing a project in Photoshop, (software program) and for some reason, something that I knew I could do, wasn’t happening. No matter what I did or how I tried to make it work, it wasn’t working. Stubborn to a fault, I was determined to get this project done, and off my “To Do list”

To reach the Tiger’s Nest one must travel a very winding and steep path up the mountain. It is easily done when one takes the time to know the route, and to listen to the more experienced traveler. When one is stubborn, we don’t always reach out, we instead waste time by repeating the process that we aren’t doing right in the first place.

A call to a wonderful talented friend in the UK. set me back on the path, this time with better coordinates. I had interpreted the numbers wrong at the very start, I assumed,…. based on that assumption, everything else I did was not working. My friend is a born leader/teacher, she didn’t do it for me, she redirected my thinking so that I was working with the right numbers, in so doing the calculations worked.

There are times when we need to reach out… we need to allow the input of another “voice” Not to tell us what to do, but to guide us in making the right choices.

BRAVE THE CLIMB TO THE TIGER’S NEST Taktsang Palphug, commonly known as Tiger’s Nest, is a seventeenth-century structure clinging to a mountainside a dizzying 10,200 feet above Paro Valley. Why the name Tiger’s Nest? Because it’s said that in the eighth century, Guru Rinpoche flew to this exact spot on the back of a tiger

determination

In life when we begin a new project, or decide to make a major change in our lives, usually the first step, is a germ of a seed is planted, it takes root and then begins to grow. With some people the idea may lie dormant for some time before they actually decide to move forward. Then again, some may begin the process but get side tracked and the idea is left to grow on its own, without any further input from the originator.

When we don’t take a firm stand or move forward with a determination to see the project through, results are often not what we expected or anticipated.

Some roots show such determination they will grow with each passing moment, slowing inching their way to the light of day and will use any way/method available to them to do so.

When we try to suppress a desire or passion that needs expression, especially one that is a lesson in life we have to learn or face… …. …. the force of nature will prevail.

There are times when we see a perfection …. however the perception, might not necessarily be consonant with reality, in moments of grace (enriching time in inner development and self-expression)… those involved in creative and artistic endeavors will find their “work” very satisfying. For it will appear to be divinely inspired and when such moments happen, relish them, enjoy the moment, then flow with the changes…. let go, let it change to what it will be…

May your day be blessed with peace and happiness!

always

always and forever she whispered

always and forever he replied

as he leaned over to lay a tender kiss on her brow

the steady hum of the machine that had filled the room

slowly faded away, till only silence remained

he looked down at the hand clasped in his

a tear fell slowly down his cheek

always and forever

they had vowed

and though she no longer

would be in the here and now

he knew that in his heart

their love would live on

always and forever

for love like theirs was blessing from above

from their very first day

they had known

there would be no other

their sacred bond of love transcended all

knowledge known to man, it was a prayer answered

from above, and would live on

always and forever

Film clip by Christian Mulhauser (Switzerland)

Music by Robert Cacciapaglia

Sometimes I like to share with you moments that are special, and work done by other creative artists. This is such a time. We may not get to some of the wonderful vistas I share with you, but the amazing artists who took the pictures, created the music or made the videos are people who I am eternally grateful to … They bring me parts of the world I would never likely see on my own.

And YOU dear reader are part of my life, my dreams, and my adventure.

laat lets van je horen! Keep in touch!

What a wonderful holiday, what views, what excitement with each new place we “discovered”, it was one “wow”! after another, the fresh air, the under travelled roads, hidden treasures. wow, wow,wow!

Whether we are driving the coast of Italy, or rounding a bend on the island of Cape Breton, Canada,Mother Nature never fails to amaze us with her awesome natural sculptures that have been long in the making.

Holidays, happen, they come and go, but the memories live on, the intoxications of the moment, the moments when words fail you, where you simply have no choice but to look out in wonder at what your eyes, mind,body, and soul are feeling. These moments are real, and will always be a part of you.

PL quote” Everything that happens to you is Material for Growth ” Keep in touch with yourSelf, your desires, your memories that resonate within you. They will keep you balanced, connected to God, grounded in nature….Keep in touch!
