Te Amo, mi mejor amigo!

{Grateful}

"Trust in the Lord with all thy heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy path." -Proverbs 3:5


So very grateful for an understanding God whom I can turn to when I need him most and also to share my greatest joys with. This has always been one of my favorite scriptures.

In recent months I have been able to be explore some of my "talents" (i use that term loosely) and spend some of my time sewing, thrifting and trying to be creative. With lots of encouragement from my hubs and hours of thinking, planning, sketching and sewing I have started to make headbands and hair pieces. And I've decided to attempt to sell them to make a little extra cash. I have an ETSY shop set up but nothing posted YET, but soon will and when I do I will be sure to let all know. Thanks in advance and more to come.

Spring Fever

Dear Spring, I'm am looking forward to all the beauty that you will unfurl. I'm looking forward to fresh starts, new beginnings and beautiful changes that blooming flowers, warmer weather and sweet smelling breezes will bring! I'm excited for good concerts, road trips both long and short, morning hikes, bike rides, lazy Saturdays(always), movie marathons, anything 3D, visiting family, weddings, anniversaries, game nights, sunbathing, popsicles and QT runs. We tend to do as the bears do and keep indoors and to ourselves, a hibernation of sorts during the winter months and I am ready to be out of the cave (smile*).
Please stay awhile Spring and let us enjoy your cool breezes and even cooler evenings for a few weeks more.
Thx

“I am like a falling star who has finally found her place next to another in a lovely constellation, where we will sparkle in the heavens forever.”
- Amy Tan

out of the night that covers me,
black as the pit from pole to pole,
i thank whatever gods may be,
for my unconquerable soul.

in the fell clutch of circumstance,
i have not winced nor cried aloud,
under the bludgeonings of chance,
my head is bloody, but unbowed.

beyond this place of wrath and tears,
looms but the horror of the shade,
and yet in menace of the years
finds and shall find me unafraid.

it matters not how straight the gate,
how charged with punishments the scroll,
i am the master of my fate:
i am the captain of my soul.

Amen!

“Both abundance and lack [of abundance] exist simultaneously in our lives, as parallel realities. It is always our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend … when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that’s present—love, health, family, friends, work, the joys of nature, and personal pursuits that bring us [happiness]—the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience heaven on earth.”
