Silent messages

Moment taken as I gaze toward the sky

clouds catch my eye

Im lost in the ease of movement

effortless motion of forms

the wind whispers….

that is how you should move through life

The little things in life

When we don’t look down

When we don’t look around

When we don’t stop to take in the moment

We might miss out on something spectacular

This day during an impromptu trip to the beach with friends, the kiddos looked down as they walked and noticed the ground moving! It was covered with colorful unique shells that slowly moved, snails! Hundreds of them! Squeals of delight, excitement and then curiosity kicked in. So it taught us an important lesson, always look where you step or you might squash a friend!

Awake

orange chair - 1 (2)

Awake, droplets of anticipation

gleaming for the new day sun

fresh, inspiring

reach up, reach out

your in the moment

the clouds are near and heavy

a glimmer of light appears

feel it, accept it

a new day begins

 

Doodling my way through life

“That pesky ghost was playing with my emotions all night.

I will just smile and wish it away.”

Doodling is habit forming. When the pen hits the paper, my eyes glaze over, the mind is in a trance,  guided by the ink, wherever it takes me. Words, images start to appear sometimes on repeat and when its over I have something unique.

When we know

We change.

When we are woven in life’s moments.. Caught.. We get tangled, we wiggle

slowly we stretch… Grow.. and learn to break free
