Chances Are....

Treasures In The Garden

 

What Insight will I gain?

 Please don't cry because something has ended.
Smile because it has happened.
 Maybe this will be a new beginning.

May be we need to take a chance on trying something new.
Unless we do we'll never know 
how absolutely perfect
 that new something may turn out to be.
  
Chances are, the chances are awfully good!

Of all That is Important, LOVE is First

A glut of tomatoes to make jam, relish and chutney





Treasures In The Garden


Love is the most important of all!


LOVE
does not
look at
 your
body
 or your face.
Rather it
 looks at
 your beautiful
 loving HEART!

Being Number One....

Treasures In The Garden

In striving to be the best we can, is it important to be No.1?

 

"It's no good striving to be number one.
 Being number one is next to nothing."
                                                      Laurelle's Dad

or....

Are we striving to be the servants and carers of each other? 

Is this what will give us standing and character in our community
 - in our inner being?

Getting the Most from Life

Treasures In The Garden

 Want to get the best from your life?

Life is too
 short to worry
about stupid
things. 
Have fun,
 fall in love,
regret nothing,
and, don't let
people put you down.

Delightful Dalliance





SEEING RED
Pleasing to the eye.

I find it strange when a particular thing keeps popping up everywhere I go.
In recent times, especially when I have been on holidays, my eye was constantly drawn to objects that were predominately RED! I wanted to share these colourful times when all things that caught my eye were Red and were so pleasing to my inner self.


These are Kayden's favourite toys

One day we went to Eimeo pub up on the cliffs looking out over the bay and treated ourselves to devonshire tea. Even the jam was red.

The no smoking sign on the wall




Later we went down to the harbour to join the throng of people walking about there and ate icecream- as one does on a warm spring afternoon.

The red roof of a tiny lighthouse on the fore front
     A sexy car we spotted                 The ice cream fridge                                      







RED is my favourite colour. Maybe that is why I am so aware of it.
It is brilliant, vibrant, eye catching and soul uplifting.
It is the colour of my life's blood,
 the colour depicting my heart where my love is based.

Cups and backing ties in my kitchen

                                                                                                           My favourite places to see the colour RED is in the colour of lipstick, sunsets, glowing coals in my winter fire, the backing tiles in my kitchen,that brighten up the decor of that pleasing and much used used area of my home.


  Even when were travelling overseas and mostly in London, I found many things that were RED and familiar to my eye (from pawing over travel brochures and watching travel videos ) I really loved London.

And so it could go on. But if I do I'll be seeing a different kind of RED!
There are another 100 RED photos or more  that I could use.
