Blog Your Blessings Sunday

by Hopeful Spirit on Sunday, May 13, 2007


Did you have a won­der­ful Mother’s Day? Did you spend it with fam­ily? Did you honor a mother today, whether she be your own or some­one else’s? Or, if you are a mother, did some­one pay trib­ute to you?

I enjoyed a very quiet day right here at home. Just where I wanted to be. I had some of my favorite foods and won­der­ful com­pany. The weather was and still is beau­ti­ful … a per­fect tem­per­a­ture and the light­est breeze. Blue skies.It was a day to truly stop and think about my many bless­ings, and to be appre­cia­tive of them. A day to con­tem­plate all that our Divine Cre­ator has given and con­tin­ues to give to us. A day to think about those who are less for­tu­nate and hold them up in prayer.

Have you been pray­ing for Heather? She is home and send­ing brief updates. Go pay her a visit and leave a com­ment of encour­age­ment. She will appre­ci­ate it.

Hey I love your quote by Hammersjold, it is so true. Often I try to focus on the present without having a “eternal” perspective.

Isn’t he a Danish something? I can’t remember why I have heard the name so if you know get back to me

Yottabyte

Contemplating the objects of a preposition

A pond, a lake, a sea like

A smooth glass smile.

Tideless at the break of day.

Becalmed at the water edge.

Plying peaceful waters.

White wizard’s wings.

The black heart of a blood red flower.

Pendulous papayas, full ripe, hanging in the tropical breeze.

Thatched skin.

Cross hatched in youth

Smooth as cork when they are old.

Drying of the pools.

Algae and other scum.

Choked with weeds.

Throat full.

Choking on plants while drying in the sun.
