Faroes and Nfld

Faroe islands ( The Faroe Islands is a self-governing archipelago, part of the Kingdom of Denmark.) on the left .. Newfoundland (Canada) on the right – two very different places with beautiful inspiring escapes.

One of the observations I’ve had with this move, is that my physical location has made a difference for me. I have had to adjust to underground parking, elevators and mechanical noises that were not part of my daily existence .. a constant meeting of “strangers” in close proximity… but when I enter my apartment, I am “home”. The cats and I have had to adjust to having a smaller floorplan than we did living in a house with three stories….. I certainly am now privy to how they spend their nights !!!!

I spent most of yesterday doing another batch of cards.

Interesting how in this new space, I have found inspiration to get back to being creative with my “invenotry”.. I feel lighter, less burdened. Yet if you had asked me before the move if I felt ” burdened” I would have immediately replied. NO. A good example of walking around with my head in the sand, !

It is interesting because it is different

Even if someone totally disagrees with you or does things differently, you may learn something from them. Avoid getting trapped in the mindset “this is the way it has to be ” and free your mind to consider other possibilities.

Today’s lesson resonates with me. Going to chaw on it (ponder) during the day. I have a lot planned, let’s see how much I actually accomplish. Have a good day friends, I truly appreciate you in my life.

IMG_4093Some times when we are travelling full speed down a Provincial highway, we admire the beauty along the sides of the road.  Same is true when we are on secondary roads.  My mind will pick up on a detail, that later brings me to another storyline.

Two very different landscapes, yet each sends me images and text.  I imagine that for many this is also true.  This morning, when I opened up my mail, one of the images I saw was this one.

Of course I thought immediately of Norm’s Thursday Doors.  His this  week is AWESOME Norm 2.0  For those of you who know my love of the “character” doors, you will appreciate why today he had me mesmerized..

My husband has been wanting to take me back for a visit to Newfoundland and Labrador, he worked there years ago when he was still doing radio/TV… I have also been there, but just to visit, now seeing Norm’s doors, you can bet your booties, I am going to be suggesting that YES, Let’s pack up the truck, bring the dogs, we are going exploring.

See that is what an image can do for me.  I love seeing the world through the lens of another, as well as my own.  When we focus, a whole new world opens up for us.

BE  present.  always.  listen giving full attention.  the rewards are   A MA Z I N G

I didn’t plan on a trip to the States yesterday, but there I was, having lunch in NY State, and adding to my fabric stash.

Life is good, life is great, being alive to see the fall colours, WOW, we are so lucky those of us lucky enough to experience Nature in  all her seasons.  Yes even winter.
