Shapes

I cannot get the shape to fit, what am I doing wrong?

I press and push to no avail, it will not yield my touch.

Ponder, question, wonder why, how to bend the form to will?

It is not the shapes, my child, that need to change

They are set in shape and stone.

Take what you have, the clay and sand – and work the world around

Thoughts and hearts, minds and cares, and see the change abound.

One small piece, one at a time, build on solid ground.

And then one day, you will see, you will find –

The shapes all fit and beauty has been

Found.

Something New

Clouds will go

Clouds will come

Clouds will shadow

Clouds will rain.

There is nothing we need do

But to fall into the

Energy

That inspires us to change

Into something

New.

Inspiration 

For pure unadulterated inspiration, we need look no further than the Williams sisters and their dad. When (age 11) Serena was asked, if she was to become a tennis player who would she like to be like? She answered without skipping a beat, well, I’d like others to be like me. 

And in 2017, we have both Williams sisters in the Australian Open, well done Venus and Serena, and well done Serena on 23 Grand Slam titles.

Good on Dad for stating way back then, we will  one day see them in the finals.

Praise

An Acrostic Poem

Prayers from my heart
Reach the One whom I
Adore and in his mercy
I receive love and grace
Supplied abundantly –
Everlasting peace

Daily Inspirations by Erika Kind

On Saturday I received my much-anticipated 101 Kind Quotes  physical copy created by my dear friend Erika Kind from I’m Free. First up, I want to say how wonderful it is to be able to hold it in my hands and to browse through it freely. Each quote is set on an accompanying image and has Erika’s trademark butterfly presented on it. So much to inspire. And much about love. My favorites are those revolving around love “Love is the cause, the key, and the result. Love is all that is“. There are 101 quotes, so perfect for choosing one daily at random,  or to read in one sitting. I am really glad and thankful for this beautiful book, and for all the love that has gone into creating it.

Thank you Erika, for your wonderful community presence, and for all that you do for us. We love and appreciate you! ❤

Family Cycle

My son is super-
Fast on his bike, my daughter
Is too, I am not

#30km cycle and I am wrecked

Lavender Fields

Innocent young woman with pink fairy dress in a springtime blueb

In fields of lavender and green
I feel my soul’s deep need of Thee
I close my eyes and allow all calm
To wash me clean and make me whole

Self Doubt

Girl At The Sea

When darkness overwhelms
And self doubt grabs a hold
Write about it
Externalise it

When anger starts to rise
And blood begins to boil
Write about it
Externalise it

When sadness starts to grow
And mood begins to drop
Write about it
Externalise it

When no one else can offer help
And new resolve is needed soon
Meditate over it
Internalise it

A Smile

Natural Looking Label

There is always a
Reason to smile, even if
Only for a while
