Postcards from Paradise #13 ~ Quiet Contemplation

Rainy days,
 quiet contemplation, sitting with stillness,
wondering about the journey.....

It's okay to sit, to be quiet, not to push with anything, waiting for the sap to rise....

waiting right beside you friend.

loving the rain, the hush, the waiting....
with you.
Something so soothing and meditative about the rain. It is as though the universe is offering us a moment of time to nestle in and listen through the quietness for the still sounds of our own heart beating and our own breathing in and out. Beautiful images, Sue. Right here with you.

Hmm.... I try not to be too sappy. Is feeling it rise good or bad?

It is totally okay to sit and be quiet! I've done that a lot this summer so far. Beautiful photos full of atmosphere.
Ah, a rainy day in England and so beautifully expressed by you, Foxy Sue.

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
