From the Heart
Poppy has the builders at home so came to hang out with me. She was all of a tremble when she arrived as the last time she saw me I swooped in to her place for my friend, to drop her at the vets, anyway she’s okay now, calmed down a little bit.
I’m not sure she was expecting the cat in the mirror. She’s been walking up and down like a lioness watching that other cats every move 😊
Daily Prompt – Tremble
Meditate and become one with nature, bloom like a flower, spread out like a tree, want for nothing that is not already here. You will then become at one with all things, the flowers, the trees, the skies and rivers. Connected to this eternal life source you can experience the essence just being, travel anywhere and be part of everything.

Take each event in life as if it is the start of a new dance, know that the music will play through to the end and dance with all your heart and soul. Dance in the sunshine, sway gently in the breeze and dance through the wind and rain. Enjoy each dance in the ball as at some point the time will come for the last dance.

I am the sum total
of all I’ve experienced in life,
present in this moment
through happiness and strife.
Moulded by adversity
and shaped through tender care,
If these things had not occurred,
I could be anywhere.
I travel in this vehicle
it has veered along the road,
I’m so very strong and balanced,
I carry a heavy load.
I ensure that it is packed well,
no need to stack it high,
I let it go quite often,
in-between stages I pass by.
I am the sum total
of all I’ve experienced to date,
I’m collecting as I move along,
before it gets too late.

Hope springs eternal,
I know that’s what they say.
This has always troubled me,
at least until today.
Until I saw you reaching up,
from the icy ground.
I realised in that moment,
it was hope I’d found.

Lovingly you looked at me,
as you walked out of the door.
Eyes so soft and soothing,
I’ll remember them for sure.
Lovingly you said farewell,
and you blew me one last kiss.
I thought you’d be returning,
at least that was my wish.
Lovingly I think of you now,
your never far from my mind.
A love so true and honest,
would be impossible to find.
I have your picture hanging,
on the wall just near the door.
Your loving eyes still watch me,
and they shall forevermore.

The Daily Prompt – Lovingly
If we compare the challenges we face in life to the ocean, we’ll begin to understand that whatever is happening, the tides will change. That boat that gets blown about in the gale will enjoy the calmness of a summer day, the gull that can’t land because of the swell will sleep on the ocean in months to come and those waters will always turn warm again. The storms are needed to wash away the rubbish from the shore in preparation for another summer and the sound, smell and taste of the ocean will sooth us once again.

Sometimes we need a bit of support in keeping that smile on, but when we take this support and lift our smiles, we share a message of happiness. Like its partner, love, happiness grows and before long it comes back in abundance.

During those difficult times when it feels that everything has been stripped away, watch and know that the light will come. It is only from the experience of being without, that we can know what it is to have.

Sometimes those differences are hard to explain, sometimes we are the same but totally different at the same time and that’s okay because we fit somehow.
