Time Fly's!

So effortlessly do the days go past without a hint of what the next day brings, because just like the wind, which has it's own path to follow and a change in direction without our command, do we succomb to what is.  Many folks say "time is not on our side" but I beg to differ.  We are given each twenty-four hours to fill however we may choose, and while I may not always "choose" conscientiously or wisely, I am still in charge of my thoughts and actions.  However, like the wind, I may change my direction at any time.  There is nothing that keeps me from taking hold of this moment and filling it with my desires, although if chosen wisely, I may "decide" to drift a while and consciously "let go" of any expected outcomes and live in the moment, and therefore, "live longer more beautifully" any time I choose.

Time Out, Having Fun!

In the course of life there are times, if we take the time, to play and have fun, and if we are lucky we can just be fun whether playing or not!  Really it only depends on the frame of mind we are in.  Personally, I would just like to "be"fun without playing at all.  There are reminders everywhere of how we can 'be" this.  This morning I was sitting on the pot and as usual my little chinese "Chewie" short for Chewbacca, opened the door and came in to wait on his beloved master to finish her business and he accidentally fell over after he non-chalantly sat on the edge of a bath rug. He rolled over with some surprise but then just sat there perplexed and I found this to be hilariously funny! And I thought how simple a thing to get to tickled about and how even while there was no one else around to share in the laughter, I realized how these are the times when I am reminded of how to "be" fun in life!

Listening Quietly

The gifts we are given each time we listen are there for the taking.  Even in the hustle and bustle when we quieten ourselves we can hear the voice within.  Sometimes I am so amazed at the messages I am given and I am so glad that I have learned to sit...in the moment.  I can count the times, one just recently, where the gift of another's voice came upon my ability to follow the direction I was given to hear that which was sought.  In sorrow or grief, or loneliness, feeling powerless, not knowing which direction to take, or not knowing the answers, if I will sit in silence and remain open to the voice within I am always directed or given the answers for which I do not always know the question  at the time, but later I  know what it is that was asked.  It is this wisdom that comes as we grow in years that makes our lives so much more beautiful each day we live longer and more abundantly!

Reflecting on A Life So Blessed

There are often times we look back through the days and years of our time here on Earth and realize how blessed we are with the many lives we are surrounded by.  And while time marches on, as I am realizing now how soon the colder weather will soon arrive, we can bide our time in the process of reliving the moments that keep us young and alive with wonder.  Reviewing some of the photos taken this past summer and, oh, yes, the ones my son the cameraman videoed of mmm...well, our little Shinese puppy humping the pillows, I can laugh and smile and restore my youthful soul and appearance (you know those tiny little lines around the mouth and eyes)....Yes, let's have more of these times and experience total bliss while we are ever so grateful!
