Service ~ 'It's a Pleasure'

'Joy'

What brings me joy this Thursday, 29 December 2011?

Honestly?

Something really simple.

Yet profound on the subject of service ~


"Service makes you tingle with aliveness.... is deeply creative, generative, and yes risky, because it means you share your heart."  Jennifer Louden


This subject is one of several brilliantly written articles currently to be found over at Susan Piver made me 'tingle' with Joy when I read it!

Oh yes,  the other great Joy today as you will have noticed ~ playing with my blog ~ all new for a while ;~)

New year's intention ~


'Share more of my Heart' 


sending my Joy to

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!

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
