Floating in Periwinkle




The periwinkle grew at the back of the house under some cedars, I wanted the periwinkle to spread out and become like a floating cloud around the cedars and rocks...

Monday



GOT THIS EMAIL THIS MORNING:

it's funny.....so here's one for the guy's LOL

The Man Rules
At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down
Finally , the guys' side of the story.
( I must admit, it's pretty good.)
We always hear " the rules"
From the female side.
Now here are the rules from the male side.

These are our rules!
Please note.. these are all numbered "1 "
ON PURPOSE!
1.. Men are NOT mind readers.

1. Learn to work the toilet seat.
You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down.
We need it up, you need it down.
You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.

1. Sunday sports: It's like the full moon
or the changing of the tides.
Let it be.

1. Crying is blackmail.

1. Ask for what you want.
Let us be clear on this one:
Subtle hints do not work!
Strong hints do not work!
Obvious hints do not work!
Just say it!

1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every
question.

1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it.
That's what we do.
Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for..

1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument.
In fact, all comments become Null and void after 7 Days.

1. If you think you're fat, you probably are.
Don't ask us.

1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the
ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.

1. You can either ask us to do something
Or tell us how you want it done.
Not both.
If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.

1. Whenever possible, Please say whatever you have to say during
commercials...

1.
Christopher Columbus did NOT
need directions and neither do we.

1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings.
Peach, for example, is a fruit, not A color. Pumpkin is also a
fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.

1. If it itches, it will be scratched.
We do that.

1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," We will act like
nothing's wrong.
We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.

1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, Expect an
answer you don't want to hear.

1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is
fine... Really .

1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to
discuss such topics as baseball
or golf.

1. You have enough clothes.

1. You have too many shoes.

1. I am in shape. Round IS a shape!

1. Thank you for reading this.

Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight;
But did you know men really don't mind that? It's like camping.

Pass this to as many men as you can to give them a laugh.

Pass this to as many women as you can to give them a bigger laugh.

Rock Stop

Spring Cleaning



Ha Ha Nooo not my clutter! I came across this empty house on Sunday with my friend W...we where out for a drive on the way to the lake....
I've been doing my own spring cleaning of the photo's of my closet of my mind....

I thought my mind is not cluttered as much as it has been, just keeping the good times....
That's my World welcome to it LOL

The Invitation - Oriah Mountain Dreamer




The Invitation
It doesn't interest me
what you do for a living.
I want to know what you ache for,
and if you dare to dream
of meeting
your heart's longing.


It doesn't interest me
how old you are.
I want to know if you will risk
looking like a fool
for love,
for your dreams,
for the adventure of being alive.


It doesn't interest me
what planets are squaring your moon.
I want to know if you have touched
the center of your own sorrow,
if you have been opened by life's betrayals
or have become shriveled and closed
from fear
of further pain!

I want to know
if you can sit with pain,
mine or your own,
without moving
to hide it
or fade it
or fix it.

I want to know
if you can be with joy,
mine or your own;
if you can dance with wildness
and let the ecstasy
fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes
without cautioning us to be careful,
be realistic,
or to remember
the limitations
of being human.

It doesn't interest me
if the story you're telling me is true.
I want to know if you can disappoint another
to be true to yourself;
if you can bear the accusation of betrayal
and not betray your own soul.

I want to know
if you can be faithful
and therefore
be trustworthy.

I want to know
if you can see beauty
even when it is not pretty every day,
and if you can source your life
from G-d's presence.

I want to know if you can live with failure,
yours and mine,
and still stand on the edge of a lake
and shout to the silver of the full moon,
"Yes!"

It doesn't interest me
to know where you live or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair,
weary and bruised to the bone,
and do what needs to be done
for the children.

It doesn't interest me
who you are, how you came to be here.
I want to know if you will stand in the center of the fire with me
and not shrink back.

It doesn't interest me
where or what or with whom you have studied.
I want to know what sustains you
from the inside
when all else
falls away.

I want to know
if you can be alone with
yourself,
and if you truly like
the company you keep
in the empty moments.
The Invitation - Oriah Mountain Dreamer

I got this in an email last year...kind of sums it up for me
