Advent Calendar of Gratitude #1

I am grateful on this day,
Wednesday, 1st December 2010,
the day of my 100th post,

for the many mentors on my healing path...

The advice ~
"if the path has heart follow it",
I did, it lead to many places where the heart
could dwell peacefully.

I'm grateful for all of those places ~
paper places,
yoga paces,
and virtual spaces
including all those who occupy them.
You know who you are?
I've thanked you many times!

Where does your grateful heart dwell?

Congratulations on your 100th post!
Beautiful advent calendar idea! In all the hectic and busy-ness of this season we so often and easily forget to be grateful. Often I wish thise season was less noisy, slower and way more reflective.
One thing's for sure: I'm grateful I've found your blog!

Congratulations on your 100th post! Gratitude is the memory of the heart. ~Jean Baptiste Massieu. I thought that you might like that quotation. Your art and your blog are so heart-openingly beautiful, and we are all fortunate to know you through this window of light into your world.

Morning has Broken

Yesterday the black dog came to visit me, the same black dog who used to visit Winston Churchill. When my daughter came around, she could see the black dog had turned up too and that I was completely at his mercy. She made her leave with a simple kiss and goodbye, "hope he goes soon", I nodded in agreement. For when he's around he completely demands my attention and there's no shaking him loose! On retiring I sternly told the black dog I didn't understand the reason for his visit and that I thought I had sat with him for long enough and to be gone in the morning! *** I've not seen him so far, this morning thank goodness !!! It is the beginning of a brand new day, I am grateful for each day of my life... I was at a funeral on Friday, to say we'd anticipated a sad day all turned out most beautifully.... my favourite hymn was sung 'Morning has Broken' On this brand new day I'm sitting here tapping the k...

My Silken Altar

The reflective image below is one taken of my south facing window, which is more like an altar to me because of the ever changing light that allows for embracing the moments of silent connection and praise. I take many photographs from this window as I marvel at the sun's energy to illuminate or in this case reveal through shadows and reflections. This image has been sitting in my file for sometime, it has a hidden message for me that I knew would one day surface... Heart broken open by the mystery of you... love stitches together. Gentle love rides pain like silken thread slips through jute spring balm for raw edge. Stitch with silken love the polarities of life embrace the mystery... Sending to Rebecca for healing... Haiku my Heart Recuerda mi Corazon
