This quote I heard today on Super Soul Sunday…it hit a place in my heart, because we think our lives should be lived the way society or those around us decided when we were babes, that’s the way things should be. Even when we become adults, our limitations continue and we keep on living theContinue reading “It’s ok to re-write your story…”

This is all new to me…my host site has changed my whole format…my day was going perfectly fine until right now! It is Friday, so I do my exercise class every Friday, and I was feeling groovy when I left the house, you know, I felt totally with it.  Whatever “it” is.  It is like whenContinue reading “Like a little dolly on the walking trail…”

Ta ra!  Checked out of the list…yes, I have an ongoing list of things I want to do, dreams I want to see become reality (some of them date back to my childhood), conversations to deal with, in other words, put the period at the end of the sentence.  That sentence will be coming forContinue reading “Such Masterpieces…My Masterpieces…”

Well, I already ordered my castanets, which will be coming priority mail, so I better hurry up and do this “Abstract Expressionism” painting I have in mind for a very special place in my living area. I am into Minimalism right now, so today that took a down because I had to buy a canvas andContinue reading “Renaissance woman…yes…I am!”

I am sure you have had one of those days where every thought, well, almost every thought is about the so many wonderful blessings you have.  About being in a circle of pure gratitude. Hot water, opened my eyes this morning, can breathe, can talk, have people who really love me, my sense of humor,Continue reading “Pure gratitude…”

The chief inspector says to me…”the car is ok, but you need to take it for a drive.”  WHAT!!??? Then he asked if there has been some work done recently, battery or something else…then I thought…that bloody engine light is not done with me yet!!!!!  It seems that when the mechanic reset the fuse orContinue reading ““Car is ok…but…it needs to be taken for a drive…””

Someone dared me recently to see if I would  post a picture on Facebook without any makeup, or any adornments.  Well, that one was not a difficult one to do…after 150+ photo shoots, here’s the result.  I made it sepia tone, and voila, I like it a lot. Not only I am a good writer,Continue reading “Dare me not….”

Je sais…the brain sometimes goes to Spanish by default…when it feels like it, to English and when I feel like it, to French!  The bull by the horns, but it made me laugh when it came out of the Je ne sais quoi neurons.  There it goes again! I really was not feeling like goingContinue reading “Coger el toro por los cuernos…Grab the horns by the bull…”

Upon returning today from my exercise class…every Friday morning I really so don’t want to go, but once I am there dancing and lifting 2 pound weights, I am so glad I made the trip.  I feel re-energized and up in tune with the world. So after I had my lunch today, I started ponderingContinue reading “What has to happen for me to be totally happy…”

  I was pondering while preparing my salad just a few minutes ago…I like to leave it alone until I get really hungry and it gets to be room temperature. Back to the pondering…I do that a lot!  While slicing the cantaloupe I thought that when I depart this world, I want to leave withContinue reading “When I leave planet earth…things left undone…”
