Oh, so lovely Amy! 🙂 Your posts are always so beautiful! 🙂 I hope you are enjoying these wonderful December days! 🙂 Lots and lots of Love to you! ❤ ❤ ❤
Beautiful sentiments, Amy. ❤ Living in a world where darkness fills the news cycle, we often don't spend enough time thinking and living life with a positive viewpoint. Have a wonderful day!
Thank you for commenting, Rob. Yes, you are right. The choice is ours every day, every moment, how to BE in that Moment. The High Road or the Low Road. Learning how to maintain a positive frame of Mind, takes discipline and practice. I of all people know how tough it is to live in this world or ours. You have a great day too!!! (((HUGS))) Amy (On your likes, your gravatar does not have the link to your blog. Just letting you know so that in case you were not aware of this, you can change it. On your comment here, your link did come through.)
Thank you, Amy! I find your blog and your messages to be inspirational. I had a hard time last week and needed a positive push and you provided that. I have to learn to *believe* that positive frame of mind is a choice and not happenstance. To that end I will work. Thanks for the info on my gravatar. I’ll go and see if I can’t figure out why that’s happening. Have a great day!
You are so very welcome, Rob. Practicing positivity is a LONG journey, take my word for it. We all have our off days, and those are the ones I say to myself, “OK. I can do this. HARD manual switch right now to positive thinking.” And then I walk it out. All day today I have been grumpy, fighting a cold, just not my usual self. So yes even myself I have to work right along the rest of humanity. I am humbled that my Petals was able to assist you at a time when you so did need it. That is my goal … to reach those who need a helping hand. Good luck with your link. Like I said it works when you comment but does not when you like. I find that odd. (((HUGS))) Amy
Such a beautiful truth my cherished friend. The light of love that is in each of us truly is strong enough to push away any darkness that falls upon us and those around us. And how blessed are we to be given the chance to share that light. Ever focused, ever balanced and ever grateful. Peace and love be yours sweet Amy. ~Matthew
Matthew, your beautiful comment outshines my post. The Light that pours from you is just stunning, so beautiful to my Heart. Bless you for being YOU, and for BEing in my Life. Bless you, Matthew, and Peace to you. Sending Much Love to you, Amy
Thank you, Kathy. I LOVE the color on these flowers too. The purple just pulls me in, and when I’m “in”, my tension just floats away. I am so glad you enjoyed this. (((HUGS))) Amy
Yes, Erika, Love IS Light. I had a recent post that says naught but Love exists … which is conceptual and so challenging to wrap our heads around. Yet I know in my Heart it is Truth. Peeps have fallen asleep and forgotten they came from Love, hence ARE Love. (smile) LOVE talking to you! (((HUGS))) Amy
Dalo, it has been such a long time since our paths crossed, and so today they have! I feel Blessed for this experience! Thank you ever so much for your kind words to me which truly humble me, as they come from a source of such great talent …. you. I am so happy my post here made your Heart happy at the start of your day! (smile) With Love, Amy
Isn’t this a great way to end the year ~ our paths crossing again at just the right time 🙂 You are definitely a gift to us all, so may all your Christmas dreams come true…and onto a great new year ~ Take care
Oh, Karen, Bless you! Merry Christmas to you and your family. I have a Christmas post coming on Tuesday that will be up as my first post until next Monday. May Love be yours now and for the whole year long. Love, Amy
Merry Christmas to you as well, Amy!!! Thank you! I have a Christmas post coming on Tuesday for you and all who wish to be here. I finally reveal my face. (smile) (((HUGS))) Amy
Purple follows green in my list of favorite colors Amy. This shade is among my stash of yarn, waiting to be used in my own afghan, soon to be made after all of the others. And your words say it all, as usual. You seem to have a pipeline into my heart, and know just what I need to hear. I’ll be checking back all week, while cooking for my mom. Peace, smiles, and LOVE, Angie
I have taken so much pleasure from your posts and your gorgeous photos this year…My wish for you here at year-end is a very Merry Christmas and a truly wonderful new year.
Oh, Charlie, you have put tears of gratitude in my eyes. If it were not for people like you who come here to view my work, I would not be constantly improving/changing my techniques and so determined to understand more in the editing room. I am honored that you have come to Petals almost every day, and for this, I am so humbled. Bless you! May you have a very Merry Christmas, and may the both of us have a great and JOY-filled New Year!!! (((HUGS))) Amy
Amy, I read your post a couple weeks ago that you were taking a break, and because I have close to 4000 emails I somehow let stack up I Missed 15 posts of yours! I was so happy to read your husband loved his camera and it brought tears to your eyes.! I feel so blessed to get to know you in the blogging world and every post is amazing! I have some catching up to do!
Happy new year to you my friend, glad your fatigue did not get the best if you!
Heart to heart Robyn. Blogging for 9 months and loving it!
Happy New Year to you, Robyn!! I am so Blessed that you are a part of my Life and that you come to Petals. Thank you so much! As for me taking time off, heads up about that. LOL When I say that it will be only for a few days only. I should put a notice up somewhere on Petals to the effect that when I say I am taking some time off, it means ONLY a few days. LOL Hubby and I are still waiting on snow, believe it or not, to get some winter scenes. Go figure … This is the first year I WANT snow and it doesn’t snow. LOL (((HUGS))) Amy
