A Cup of Happiness

Treasures In The Garden

Add a little magic to every day:

Smile

Hug

Kiss

Love

Say kind words

Offer gratitude

Make Love.

Add to somebody's happiness,

And grow your own happiness

As a consequence.

My word for today is "MAGIC!"

 I plan to live each day with a heart filled with magic and joy.

Zest for Love and sharing

Treasures In The Garden

With Love

Allow yourself a little time to let Love come your way

Believe that life's a miracle - you have your part to play

Celebrate each morning - give thanks for this new day

Do little things with BIG Love - this is the joyful way

Eat good food with gratefulness, for earth and rain and sun

Feed your friends with tenderness, encouragement and fun

Give up resentments, grudges, pain - let go of ALL that stuff

Heal your heart with happiness - Love really is enough

Invite a friend to walk with you, to journey somewhere new

Just take each other by the hand - decide Love is for you

Kindness is the answer, the best path you can choose

Love with all your heart and soul, you've only fear to lose

Melt all hardness, soften edges, let yourself just be

Now, this very moment - Love can set you free

Open up the closed doors - let your judgments go

Peace of mind comes gently when Love is all you now

Question your assumptions - then throw them all away

Realise the truth in this - Love IS the only way

Stop worrying - start living - explore those unknown lands

Take time to laugh today - life's gifts are in your hands

Understand the message - there is only Love and fear

View your life with kindness - let struggle disappear

Weave a little magic - Love is the golden thread

eXeeding joy and happiness can be your daily bread

Yes, it is simple, choose Love and take a chance

Zest for LOVE and sharing will lead us in Life's dance

Growing Older

The "man" of the moment  and his proud Mum and Dad

Treasures In The Garden

 

Growing older can be a time of sadness as children grow up and 

move away, health begins to fail and we save for eventual funerals.

However it can be a time of excitement, happiness and Magic 

and positivity.......

 In the last week we have had some of all of that in our life

 and made us feel glad to be alive.

....it started with the visit of our kids from the UK here to catch up with family and friends.

....a visit to Toowoomba to be with Bek as she celebrated her birthday.

....which meant we could catch up with Chris "friend" and her gorgeous family

....a lovely BBQ with Christine and her caring family

....and then a trip to Roma to be with more family 

traveling through a glorious sunset 

to meet up with Wayne and Leanne who drove all the way from Mackay

A big THANK YOU to LEIGH who allowed us to invade his house and all be together for........

 The Christening/ baptism of Axel Blake

....Baby Axel who brought magic to all of us with his sweetness and beautiful nature

And his Dad and Mum Shane and Jamie who are doing a great job at being parents of that darling boy

....And Leigh.. who is somebody very special indeed, being supportive to Jamie  and Shane as they battle their way through early parenthood.

 And the family BBQ on Saturday night where we were able to be together with Jamie and Shanes' friends and very yummy food 

and a phone call from Tassie from Brady and Liane

 ....And the lovely Christening/ Baptism  where Christian and Maree got be godparents of baby Axel

where Axel did an excellent job of being good

....And there's more

....A picnic with Jamie's family to celebrate the Christening/ Baptism.

Now ... how wonderful was all of that!

And Last night being in Brisbane with Christian and Bek and Adam, eating at a yummy Chinese Restaurant, staying at a gorgeous BnB and the yummiest breakfast. Another big THANKS to Christian and Bek for making that happen for us. We hope you enjoy your quiet time in Malaysia for you deserve it. We love your kindness so much.

The Magic of LOVE!

Treasures In The Garden

LOVE is not selfish.
It is understanding and kind.
 It observes with the heart
and never with the mind.
Love is the purpose 
that each person seeks - 
Love is the language 
that each person speaks.
 Love can't be purchased
it is without price
and perfectly free....
Love like pure magic,
is a sweet mystery.
