It takes time...

beautifulfreepictures.com
To sculpture beauty
takes time...
It is not instant or overnight...
The Artist and the Gardener know this..
May we take the hint
as we sculpture the beauty of
our selves...and our lives...
Growth is a process
that takes time...
May we honor that in ourselves 
and others...

ps; As you can see from the current and previous posts, taking time to honor our needs and to nurture ourselves was a key message. May we honor ourselves by taking the time we need for ourselves.. showing this pattern of care for ourselves is a gift to our loved ones as well... they too will learn to honor their own needs. 



Rest...

The peace and beauty of this scene
reminds me
to honor my need for rest
and it doesn't have to be
in long periods..unless
that is what is truly needed.
Restful moments can be
as simple as taking in the beauty around us..
Let's honor ourselves
by  taking restful moments as we need them..
in joy and peace.

This photo reminds me that when I feel anxious
about what is happening within our world family,
to trust Love, Who has the bigger picture! 
An over view provides a more detailed and
more complete view of the particular part
which can not be seen with the 
limited vision and understanding
of the human.

It is a reminder to me as well,
that when I hear a story..I may be hearing
only a small part and need to seek out the
fuller version for its real truth.

Enjoy..


Have a beautiful day!
Take some time
just for you....
In doing so,
you bless yourself
and
your loved ones,
who will enjoy doing
for themselves
just what you are doing.

Remember to laugh!!


Forgive me dear Giraffe,
but your picture puts a big smile
on my face..and that
is not a bad thing.
Thank you for reminding me
not to take myself so seriously
and to just relax
and enjoy
moment
by
moment!!
