Those times when life becomes unbearably tough and sanity threatens to leave my eyes intentionally shift to that which liberates duress from my soul, enclosing absolute peace around my heart as my Sacred Spirit soars to unite with Mother in a Land I call Heaven on Earth. ~~~~ *Take a deep breath, close your eyes, … Continue reading Heaven On Earth
I do not live in a world of lies, manipulation, greed, corruption, power, or evil. Rather I live in a world of beauty, love, peace, laughter, light, and fun. There I create to my heart’s content freely and with childlike glee anything I wish my life to be. ~~~~ And so it is! ~~~ My … Continue reading My World
Juve Red-Tail Hawk Everywhere I walked I was deliberately stopped for you see others, desperate for conversation, wanted to talk to me. Not one person that day had mask or gloves on. Now if you are out and about taking a walk in a park, all you have to do is have binocs around … Continue reading Freedom
Below is a YouTube music video for your listening pleasure as you read and view this post. Click on it first before you begin. It is specifically for stress. Pictures are best viewed directly from my blog, not reader. ~~~~~~ Meandering about with my feet barely touching the ground, I met more birders and photographers that day then I … Continue reading Introducing …
Two days ago, New York State law was changed making it mandatory everyone must wear a mask while outdoors. Of all the idiotic things to mandate! Well, evidently some doctors spoke up immediately stating how unhealthy it is to wear a mask for people who run. That very same day at about 8pm, the law … Continue reading Common Sense
Hubby and I have been like kids now and again. We are laughing. And did he ever pull a good one over on me! He came home one day from grocery shopping, exclaiming, “Honey, you wouldn’t believe what I saw! People are now wearing scuba diving masks!” I looked at him, shaking my head, and … Continue reading Nesting Week 6
Groaning out loud, I wouldn’t give up despite my aching arms as I maintained my long lens almost vertically towards the sky. I had spotted a teeny bird flitting from branch to branch with no stop in sight. I was attempting to follow this bird with my long lens. I had quietly paired up with … Continue reading Teeny Tale
I’m witnessing a fascinating correlation in my gardens between the drastic slowing down of the world and the growth rate of my flowers. My Crocuses began to grow far too early this year, at least 3 weeks early and their rate of growth was fast and furious. Now? They are staying in bloom for the … Continue reading All Things In This Season
Friends, do not hook into the deliberate lies, propaganda, and fear tactics that the media is pounding at us. Stop reading, stop listening, just STOP! This is NOT my reality and as I have said so many times in previous years, I will not bend my knee to fear. Start getting involved in those things … Continue reading My Reality
Life is a classroom. This is where we learn lessons that are presented to us within our lives. If we do not learn them the first time around, which is the case for most of us, they will be presented again sometime in our future. Presently it seems I’m working on self-respect more then … Continue reading Maturing Self-Respect
I must have asked the right question for within one hour of that question answers began to rapidly come in. As I was feeding Rusty yesterday morning, who hasn’t been eating the brand of food I’ve been feeding our cats, in my mind the words went something like this, “Rusty is only 8 years old. … Continue reading BIG Change
I knew it! Signs of Spring have arrived. Even though I froze my betooties off yesterday crawling on the ground while the winds [COLD!] blew, I captured the first colors in my gardens. Something odd is happening this year. Normally there is a growing order with my flowers. First my Crocuses come up, then my … Continue reading Spring Is Springing!
I thank the few of you who voted in my three polls found within my last post from “Three”. Below you can find those results if you are interested. If not, just skip down to part 2 of this post. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Would you have attempted a conversation with this woman (with the lavender hair)? Yes … Continue reading Tallies, Birds, and Scapes
I’ve had some unique conversations lately. One was with a young woman with lavender-colored hair. I could have chosen not to start a conversation because of her “odd hair color”, or I could have complimented her on her hair and see if a conversation developed. I chose option two. A very pleasant conversation ensued, one … Continue reading Three

Dusting my macro lens off, metaphorically speaking that is, I went outside to see what I possibly could find as treasure. Our bushes out front caught my eye so I drew in closer to them. Sure enough, I began to see the possibilities of what I could create. Looking at and studying the terrain, therein … Continue reading Icy Dicey
Despite what is occurring in our collective lives regarding health, regarding relationships, regarding family and work, we were all born with free will to choose how we will live. So with this is mind …. Be Peace Be Compassion Be Light Be Love Be Kindness Be Comfort Be You … Continue reading Night Light
Just last week, I “happened” to cross paths with two women while in a forest. Within that conversation, I received an invite to join them and other women every Tuesday to hike in the woods. I noted the time and told them, despite the time slot for the hike which normally would find me taking care … Continue reading The Gift
When someone does something that really really bugs you and you find yourself getting upset about this something, and then as your relentless thoughts about this something persist night and day tormenting you and plain driving you nuts(!), this usually inadvertently indicates there is something within yourself the Universe is attempting to get your … Continue reading Mirrors
Watching the two of them, I laughed so hard. There in front of me was a young woman with her Husky’s leash wrapped around her legs. She on skis, it was evident she was teaching her dog how to pull her. It wasn’t going very well. I opted to take some shots while I stilled … Continue reading First Timer
Today’s tale involves my love affair with a horse. Yes, a horse. Our neighbors went on vacation and asked me to take care of their horse while they were away. Prior to this, I had been going over to the barn and pasture every day with apples and carrots, showing this horse how much she … Continue reading Love Affair
This week! My posts have been brief for a reason. We lost our electric for 5 hours on Sunday due to an extremely bad wind and lightning storm. Poor Rusty who was sleeping on my bed, careened sky high when thunder clapped directly overhead. In midair he pooped he was that terrified. Never have I … Continue reading Friday Wrap Up
It being Wednesday and all, this post will be brief. Mid-week. Almost Friday. Hump day. Let’s celebrate this day with pictures of ice which I played with in the editing rooms. I do believe you will come away from this post with a new respect for ice. (smile) Angels’ Wings Rods and Dollops … Continue reading Wednesday’s Ice
