Snow and Peace

Silence, Peace and quite and time to reflect on the statement "there is no reality, only perception"

What you see, think and feel is not ever the same as what others see think and feel about the same situation or encounter.  So be tolerant and try to walk in others' shoes a while  before you decide to judge.  For in judging, you define only yourself.

Have a peaceful and happy weekend.

A definite do it now!

Dear all,
 thank you for visiting.  I am grateful.  This morning I am going to see Joanna Sheen at the local Graphicus store/workshop.  I do buy her cd's and love the ones I have.  Messy rabbit is a bit out of my comfort zone though.  However enough!

This morning I was thinking about what we say and how we say it.  What if  our thoughts, deeds and words returned to us!  If we knew this would be behave differently? So think before you do or say anything and think what it would be like to receive what you are about to give out.

Then take this one step further.  Think what you would like to receive and then send it!. Give to another what you would like to receive.  They say what goes around comes around.  This I truly believe. 

So be good to yourself today  and be happy.  Love to you all

Thoughts

I was just thinking how many of us out here realise that our brains are influenced by our thoughts and acts accordingly.  For example, you are going into your local town and you know that car parking is at a premium,  you think "I will never get a space";  well guess what!  you don't get one.  How about deciding to think "My space will be where I want it and I won't have any trouble parking".  Stupid you say!  Not really, because I have tried it on many occasions and lo and behold "The space materialises".  Profound you say.  Not really just positive thinking.  If what you think about expands then be sure to think good thoughts for good outcomes.  Love to you all

A day at the Golf Club

Today I was invited out to lunch at the local golf club by the United Reform Church ladies and my friend Margaret. I have been to the Golf Club dinners before but this was my first lunch there. The food was really good and the dessert was simply delicious. I really enjoyed the company of the ladies and the various discussions. The average age among us was 73.5 (worked out on the calculator) but I was the youngest there. They are a lively lot with diverse views on everything from cookery to religion but all very inclusive and friendly. I would love to be invited again next year. Fingers crossed.

December musings

Good morning to all comers. A new blog is a daunting but exciting thing. I wander in here several times a day to see if anyone has visited. I have one very welcome visitor so far and am looking forward to others calling.

This morning I was thinking about Italy and the shennanigins about the crucifixes. I was wondering with the long tradition of Christianity throughout the whole of Europe, why? why? would the European Judges want to ban a Christian symbol of peace and love from anywhere.
I wanted to send praise and blessing to all the Italian people for standing up for their inalienable rights and doing what I consider to be the right thing. Well done Italy. Now perhaps if further erosion of our customs and traditions is offered to all of us, in whatever guise we will be forthright and speak out and keep our traditions and cultures. Otherwise we will lose our Identity and become "Bland and unexciting Europeans". Perhaps we need to invent our own "Thanksgiving" Day when we express our gratitude for all that is celebratable in our long held traditions.

Enough of that now. Have a very peaceful day. All my love to you all.

Good Morning! Its almost Christmas and I as at this point in time wondering whether I have made enough Cards for all my family and friends. I still have some commissions to fulfill and don't know where I will fit it all in. Christmas creeps up very quickly. Reflections in this last year bring to mind very few sad times and mostly really happy times. Mother was 93 in October and is still going strong (for a 93 year old). I ponder whether happiness is self induced? Methinks it is. So have a very happy day if you stop by here. All my good wishes go with you. As they say in Ireland "May the Road rise up to meet you"

Never on a Sunday

A day of rest and reflection.
