Water Dance
As the suns reflection
Becomes a dancer
Of the water,
She takes by the hand
the one who walks.
She whispers sweet reminders,
To the walkers heart.
She dances elegantly.
She dances of love and grace.
She dances unknown ….

From a very short walk today ….. Seeing these caused a warm feeling of joy and comfort to pour through me like maple syrup saturates pancakes. Thank you Mother Nature. I love you!! 🙏💛💚💛💚💛💚🙏 …. And now I want pancakes and maple syrup!!

Sunset walk tonight. Beautiful sky, good breeze, and an accidental sideways picture of the rocks where I sat for a few minutes.

Found while walking Yonce this morning. To be followed by passing a bouncy young girl of about 7 years old walking with her grandma.
As I walked by the young girl, I smiled and said “hello”. To which she quickly said to her grandma, “Grandma, I want that lady to be my mom.” Grandma swiftly replies no and they continue walking.
Sweet girl, I wrap you and your family in oceans of love and pray for grace, courage, and strength for whatever is going on in your lives; whether it be a small or big issue or whether you were even just playing a game. And I pray that your voice is always heard. xoxo …

From a walk last week … Created by the sun and a tree! Cool!
Last week was hugely weird so I never got around to posting it.
On another note when it feels like Life just took a big dump on you; it sort of helps to have a dance party with Boogie Shoes by K.C. & The Sunshine Band, Play That Funky Music by Wild Cherry, and You Make My Dreams by Hall & Oates, among a few others!
I shall let myself mourn over that which only ever existed in my imagination, something I was desperately clinging to, feel this crappy moment or two, and let myself know what I need to know, and then ….. I’ll just keep going.
I do have much to be grateful for; yet I do not want to cram these feelings. I shall focus on gratitude once I’m done letting go of this. And, I shall remember how powerful I am.
Wanna help? Have your own dance party or whatever brings forth good feelings and then send some good feelings and prayers this way. Oceans of gratitude …

Clarity and Knowing.
Thank you.

Sunset walk Lillian last night. We’ll need to start getting out there earlier. The move to shorter days has begun. Beautiful night!!!
Knowing of the Heart
We have come together upon this Earth
to travel our own separate paths
Yet, traveling them together.
It has not escaped my attention
that there were and are places
and experiences we talked and
dreamed of experiencing.
Our lives together seem to
have become mundane and boring.
Seeming to have the same days
over and over again.
With little new experiences
by way of sights, sounds,
and experiences.

Shadow lovelies this morning! xoxo

Sunset walk yesterday evening. What a beautiful night it was. Felt so good. I’ve got something weighing on my mind and nature is my confidant and the one who helps me get out of the mind and into the heart.
June 21 2018:
Don’t hold onto it. Don’t let it soak within. Let it roll off.
Nature always has a perfect message for us when we stop, Be quiet, and Listen.
A message I needed to hear once again today as I make my way into unfamiliar territory for me.
June 22 2018:
The most amazing and wonderful sunset walk last night. Nature is an incredible gift and blessing. She inspires us to ponder.
Do we love and accept others for who they know themselves to be or do we love and accept our idea of them and how we think they make us feel? I’ve got a writing bubbling forth. Love, love, love.

Love is the bridge that connects.

Sunset walk with Thomas. Yummy clouds. Yummy sunset. Yummy trees. And yummy company!!! I inhaled the honeysuckle scent until I was honeysuckle drunk. I seriously adore this smell. It is my absolute favorite! Ahhhhh!!!

Looking up. Breathtaking!
June 9 2018:
The tree on the right whispers to the tree on the left, “Hey! Check out this amazing view we get every single day! And it’s always different. The sky, clouds, and sun are so good to us. They deeply love us!”

Walk with Thomas before dinner. We watched for about fifteen minutes as this momma duck led her wee ducklings through the rocks to the water.
It was difficult to watch and not want to help as they kept sliding down the rocks. They finally made it!!! Safe and sound!! Whew! I circled the ducklings and the momma in blue because they blend with the rocks.
There was quite the cloud show.Rainbow cloud in the second photo. The photo doesn’t show all the colors; yet, it was amazing. Incredibly beautiful!!!
June 4 2018:
After dinner walk tonight with Thomas. Just missed the sunset; yet, still incredibly beautiful! Followed our walk with a starlit swim in the pool. Ahhhhhh!!!! Feeling incredibly blessed and grateful!

Shining bright for all to see and feel.

…. from yesterday’s walk … I love these trees. And, found a friend on the pedestrian bridge. Love, love, love …….

Trees holding space for the sun … from a walk a couple of days ago. Forgot I made this photo. I can hardly walk by these trees and this spot and not take a picture.

There’s really not much I truly know. Yet. This. I do know. Nature awakens the Knowing of my Heart. xoxo

Team TLC walk this afternoon. Lillian heads to Surprise, Arizona later this week with The Romano Duo so we made sure to have a walk with the whole team before she leaves. And look at the amazing cloud show we got to see!!

….. from a walk this morning …. Nature. Magnified. Take pause. Zoom out and See the Whole. Simply beautiful. xoxo
May 23 2018:
Brings instant calm. The shoulders and jaw relax. The neck releases. And, if one chooses, whatever it is, can be released and let go.

Beauty amongst the pins and needles.

I went for walk this morning.
Not unlike many mornings over the past 17 years. The meaning and depth of the walk has shifted throughout the years. What began as a way to exercise and get fresh air has shifted to be much deeper than that.
I have experienced many mindful walks. Walking slower than usual, listening, feeling, and smelling in silence.
Yet, this morning I knew it was …
