May We ALL give thanks for our many blessings today and everyday. May this be a new season that brings with it new hope; hope for our loved ones, ourselves, and ALL our brothers and sisters here on earth. This year we also have National Native American Heritage day on Friday as well. It's about time a president signed it into legislation! May we begin healing from our past. I am so very thank ful for you ALL! May your day be blessed with peace and love. May peace prevail on Earth! Love All*Ways Robin's Heart
Thanks, Andy. It's not time wasted, it's a learning experience you take with you on your next artistic venture.
I have been artistic all my life, but I started painting with oils about 5 or 6 years ago. And now I've switched to acrylics because of the drying time. I can work so much faster.
Wow, it is hard to believe how time flies! I have been faced with a lot of challenges the past few months. Some of them "good", others "not so good" and still others that seemed "insurmountable"! All of them required patience, change, inner examination, growth and a lot of "letting go and trusting that everything is unfolding as it should. And...Of course they were all a necessary part of my "journey".
Sometimes it is hard to remember that "change" is our friend and that no matter how chaotic things may seem during the transformation process that just like butterflies we will be more beautiful when it is completed.
Please remember that even when I am not on here often, I am always thinking of you and sending you love and light! You are ALWAYS with me in my heart!
Namaste,
Sarah
for a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin-real life. but there was always some obstacle in the way. something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. at last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. this perspective has helped me to see there is no way to happiness. happiness is the way. so treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one. ~souza
I hope that your day is relaxing, and that you are filled with love, light, and that you wait for no one to start following your dreams! Hugs, ~Sarah~
Hope is more than just a feeling, more than just a belief, it is a sentiment capable of making the difference between life and death...
If you lose hope, somehow you lose the vitality that keeps life moving, you lose the courage to be, that quality that helps you go on in spite of it all. And so today I still have a dream... ~ Martin Luther King Jr.
In everyones life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. ~ Albert Schweitzer
Let me share with you a poem written by Christopher Logue, which I believe is the challenge of our day!
Come to the edge We might fall Come to the edge It's too high COME TO THE EDGE And they came And he pushed them And they FLEW!
This is a beautiful example of the infinite power awaiting us if we are willing to venture beyond the bounds of our beliefs and what we perceive to be truth. Today we are entering into uncharted waters. We are beginning to experience ourselves and our roles in creation in a greater way. We are opening ourselves up to infinite possibilities! We use to think we were victims of circumstances and were only observers in our universe. We are now learning we are not observers, but participators in our universe... and our own lives.
an excerpt from COME TO THE EDGE! ~Mary Lou Hollis

Today my wish for you is that you "Fly" without fear or reservation, knowing that you are perfectly safe, loved beyond belief and powerful beyond measure!
The mandate to "love your neighbor as you love yourself" is not just a moral mandate. It's a psychological mandate. Caring is biological. One thing you get from caring for others is you're not lonely. And the more connected you are to life the healthier you are. ~James Lynch
When I here someone sigh "Loving is so difficult", I'm tempted to ask, "Compared to what?". The conflicts that we encounter in loving are often simply opportunities which ask for a little extra effort on our part. Perhaps we need to see innocence in another's transgressions, and not be so critical of them. Perhaps we need to be silent and listen more often with our hearts. We may find it better making allowances than making points. Perhaps we'd be wiser to overlook weaknesses rather than playing on them.
No one ever said that love was easy. But in the last analysis, it is not the problems that love brings to us, but rather what we bring to love that really matters. From the book "Born for Love" by ~Leo Buscaglia
