I didn’t see her at first… she stood so still…
Once I caught the glimpse of her waiting patiently, I couldn’t “not” see her
My first intention was to just grab a picture … then I thought I’d clean it up, take away the tree she stood behind. In the spring when the tree begins to leaf out, she will be hidden from view again. I might still do that, meanwhile, I wanted to share her… She obviously has been there for some time. I wonder at the stories she could tell.
Awww … someday… I’ll stop and …. Another mystery to unravel when time and inclination strike again…
Today Monday the 30th. there is one day left in the year 2024. Are you ready for a new year, another 365 days of adventures, new opportunities, new friends…
Use your results to make the next time even better
Whether “things” turn out perfectly or not, the important thing is to take what you’ve learned and apply it the next time.

Life is a sublime experience
We come from No Where
We are Now Here
and we are heading to No Where
What is the difference between, No where and Now Here… space

Booooo hoooooo it is no longer light when I get up. Fall is officially here. Not crazy about the darkness, but love that fall is here and all the wonders of nature that begin to emerge.
You will find joy when you immerse yourself in your task.
When you face your tasks with a can do attitude, you will be filled with enthusiasm and inspiration. (PL2020.22)

Sometime we need to let the silence speak – look carefully at the picture, then close your eyes and enjoy…

*** love is unconditional ***
a moment in time
does it matter if we are going forward, or if it is where we’ve been
what matters is we are here now
The joy of expression is in the process. Of course results are important but let’s not lose sight of the true joy that be found in the actual process. Face very task/moment with wholehearted enthusiasm. (PL2012.2)
