With the water gently lapping against the ship, the moonlight dancing across your half naked body there is a lull in the passing of time. Nowhere to go, nowhere to be…, what reason is there for this moment, none… none at all.
Except with the daylight … comes reality The boat is still docked, the waves still nudge gently against her, we are not lying onboard, at least not in the state of undress
what is real and what is the dream both are realities for they exist in our heads .. our hearts Always we will see the world through our own personal lens
The beauty is… no one .. can take away our personal realities, so if I love you with all of my heart, all of me….. then nothing and no one can take that away from me.
I will always love you. no more, no less…. today is now … Now is, always and forever….
No more.. no less….
There are always choices in life. We are always faced with a bridge.. doesn’t matter what side of the bridge you are on.. there is always a middle, top and bottom. They all come together in US.
Sometimes in our quest for doors, we travel to different shores, and climb the highest of mountains, even take backroads just so we can find that “special door” In the small towns we find plenty of charming and inviting doors, truth be told we find them everywhere and in the strangest of places. the scene above is not a door in itself but when I saw it.. it took me into another realm / it peaked my imagination, it allowed me entrance to a very exciting and yet calm place.
The way Ian took the picture, see on the rock there is a dark area, that looks like it could be a hobbit door.. imagination, what a wonderful part of our Being.

Come on… stretch the imagination cells, can’t you see the hobbit door in that rock…. =^_^=…. the wee ones are everywhere you know!
Have grand day..
It’s Okay! God is watching over you. Things turn out for the best. don’t be captured by momentary troubles, but continue doing everything with sincerity.
Good Morning, of course there is another version, but I’m showing you three, having done so by rotating the canvas. Our problems, challenges in life are not on canvas, we can’t just turn them around and visually inspect what is before us, but believe me, they are as complex and full of surprises as a canvas is to an abstract artist.
How will you see your day today, how will you deal with the many and varied opportunities that will appear before you? Will you even see half of them? I know some of my readers are familiar with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, since I’ve had occasion to talk to you about him before. He was a big name on everyone’s lips when the Beatles first took up with him, and wanted to learn more about his philosophies.
Today, I doubt if you said his name, many would know who you were speaking of. He filled ballrooms, coliseums, everyone one wanted to learn to meditate. It was fashionable. How many meditate today on a daily basis? It is like asking the question, do you pray every day…….. Personal questions, smiles, keep the answer to yourself… but think about it.
We are bombarded daily with the goings on around the world. We all want “change’ in some form or another… How many of you stay away from the word “love” or if you use it, keep it in the “social” general greeting part of your vocabulary. I personally don’t know anyone who has not been touched by “love” in their lives. some have the scars to prove it. (shame the word scar is associated with the word, but there you have it) With love comes pain, one seems to follow the other, like rain follows the sun.. and vice versa.
Make today a different day. Instead of doing the same old thing, be creative and do things to improve your day.
My first glimpse of a woodpecker at the feeders. I did my best to be patient, to wait, be ready, but he/she was having none of it.
I even went away and came back.. nope. This morning, the young blue jays were less cautious, when the peanuts (the few there were) were offered, once they realized the little chippies were going to take them all, they bravely came forward.
I’m happy to report that I’ve started to see the crows again, not many, but one here and there.. I have missed them and look forward to their return.
What is “Normal” is different for each individual. everyone has a different way of thinking and doing. It’s important to understand others’ feelings.

I’m testing out a new feeder. Although after seeing what the racoons can do… I now know why so many of my feeders last year got demolished. Guess I will have to plan for the next winter season, rethink the kind of feeders I will need ..
will see if this bicycle feeder will hold up…=^_^=
Till soon
PS.. last winter I’d arrive to find the feeders looking like a cyclone had gone through. Now I have a better idea of just how they got turned over, ripped apart etc. As cute as these racoons are… those little hands and their cunning I think can do a lot of damage.
The past leads to Now and Now leads to the future. Life is an accumulation of moments. Cherish each One.

Today is the 11th of the month, there will be a 10 a.m. service at the church – Ancestors’ Day ceremony will take place at 10 a.m.
It is a treat to get out these days, for so long our restaurants were not open, then it was only the patios, now there is more choice. Not all hospitality business’s made it through the last 1.5 plus year. I have begun to think of the coming winter season. Currently in our area, we are experiencing very high heat, we’ve had weather alerts almost every other day, if not every day. When my sister lives in the States, they have had fires to content with, air quality a serious matter.
For the sake of others, society , and world peace. Always live keeping in mind everything you do is for the sake of others, society and World Peace.

I was asked the other day how come I am always taking things to the “Goodwill” (charities) – over the years I have accumulated a lot of things that I no longer require .. with the passing of my husband 3 years ago, my life changed, How much one’s life changes can only be known by “living it” Fortunately due to my husband’s condition we had time to prepare, and he was able to help me make decisions that prepared me for this “journey” I’m on now.
Every time I take something away, yes it is perfectly still good, or it was never used, I remind myself that I don’t need it, and there are people out there that can make use of whatever it is I’m passing along.
There was a song I don’t remember it well enough to find it again, but it was about, a woman who saved her best “lingerie” for that special occasion, and then, tragedy struck and there was no need for the “lingerie”… you get my drift…. life is to be lived, and it is not material things that create happy.
..yesterday I heard a friend sing. I never knew he sang, but sing he did… it was fun and he performed it well, it brought smiles, it was a feel good performance. I learned something new about my friend, that he had the confidence and the willingness to do something so different from his usual presentation was inspiring, His audience loved it.. it brought smiles. He made people smile, what a gift.
I love learning something new about a friend, it encourages me to be a better person myself, friendships are treasures to be cherished.
Material things hold no value, unless it is something you want .. need and use. Friendships on the other hand, are priceless, and enrich our lives in forever ways.
