{ Stars }

I've been looking at the stars for a long....long time.I've been putting out fires....all my life.

{ Just Be Yourself }

Keep doing you, keep being you, keep trying to figure out where you fit in the world and eventually you will.

Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another. "What! You Too? I thought I was the only one."

{ Right There }

 

sometimes i find interior photos that make me feel like i'm in the room.

 

 

 

such photos make me "look" with more of my senses than just the eyesight: i get a feeling of how the room smells, how my voice or footsteps resonate on the surfaces, what the temperature is like, how the fabrics in the couch feel when i sit down –

these are photos that awaken the imagination

"I WILL LOVE YOU TOO THE MOON AND BACK"

{ Let Life Be A Flower }

"A flower could show you the way back to the Source, to yourself.  When you look at it or hold it & let it be without imposing a word of mental label on it, a sense of awe, of wonder, arises within you.  Its essence silently communicates itself to you and reflects your own essence back to you.” Eckhart Tolle

{ Surf's Up }



" I am so thankful for so many things. At the top of my list: FAMILY...FAITH....LOVE."

{ What Is Coffee ? }

Coffee is a lot more than just a drink. It's something happening, an event, a place to be somewhere within yourself.  It gives you time, not in actual hours or minutes, but in a chance to be yourself, and have a second cup.

{ Wish Upon A Dandelite }

"I often make wishes on dandelion seeds, then blow them to the wind and hope they come true. Sounds silly, but it doesn’t hurt to have extra help…..you never know."

{ Things I Have Learned }

"I’ve learned a lot this year.. I learned that things don’t always turn our the way you planned, or the way you think they should. And I’ve learned that there are things that go wrong that don’t always get fixed or get put back together the way they were before. I’ve learned that some broken things stay broken, and I’ve learned that you can get through bad times and keep looking for better ones, as long as you have people who love you."

{ Monday's }

I’m so excited for this week! i've actually been looking forward to today (monday) so i'm happy it is finally here. a less-stressful week could actually mean that i will have time to blog more than once this week. hooray! :) i might be the only one, but i think mondays are secretly my favorite day of the week. so much potential, you know? happy monday!

* Watching the Sunday night movie
* Having extra time to do things like....painting my nails
* Having to plan ahead for the week to come

{ Do you ever....}

Do you ever see something and it totally just makes you stop and stare? It happens to me kind of often and usually it's because something simple catches my eye [like a color, a shape, or a pattern], and then I sit and stare at every little detail. In India were we staying at a nice resort and I saw THIS......and I sat and stared at this Roses for at least 3.5 minutes....Beauty.
