My Love

Yesterday's post saved for today...

I sit here this day thinking about what I will be doing later...yoga... I think about tomorrow too for it's a special day, our anniversary...

We had planned to go to the Japanese Gardens, this idea came to me as my love carefully placed the last stone in a wall bordering our garden. He's erected this wall from stones he miraculously came across buried in the earth... these were a God-Send as we need a wall to protect our property from flooding, these stones are very expensive, way out of our budget!

Although we have never been financially comfortable while living here my mantra of ~
"what I need will be there in the moment"
has proved true time and again!

Considering tomorrow, my love and my gratitude towards him for the many years he has looked after me and our family my thoughts turned to the concept of ~ Karma Yoga
which is nicely explained here at ~ 'Faerymother' and to quote from Starr this is the type of yoga that ~

"offers service unselfishly and with a pure motivation".

My love has looked after me in many ways, from building walls to baking bread when I was sick!!

I would like to share a poem I discovered over at Tara Sophia Mohr

This poem epitomizes my feelings for the quality my love displays and the ones I aspire to!

I dedicate this post to David 'aka' 'my love'. ~

The Quiet Power

Haiku my Heart #42 - Shine on

t'was just a sparkle peeping through the blacks and grey it filled my whole eye .... My daughter's car stands motionless on our drive, she is in hospital with severe stress symptoms. It has been a dark week, yesterday I noticed a sparkle reflecting off of her car through my window. She's been rattling up and down the motorway for the last year everyday to the job she loves and is fighting hard to keep. The car had so many rattles, now fixed by my love, it's washed, polished and resting-up waiting for her return. For more haiku poetry Visit Recuerda mi Corazon

One for the Road

Off on my travels, not before I say 'here here' to Rebecca's words, ...over at Haiku my Heart Recuerda mi Corazon

Haiku my Heart #49 ~ Numbers

After yoga yesterday we discussed significant numbers, today being Friday 13th, unlucky for some they say! On the other hand the year 2012 is said to be an auspicious year, The Chinese Year of the Golden Dragon, taking place only once every 60 years . It also happens to be a leap year so that means the possibility of climbing my same old staircase an extra time this year! The number 300 is significant too this being my 300th post! whilst yesterday the 12th was my blog birthday 2 years! So what do these numbers all amount to? Can I count on them to calculate my life? Or are they just markers of time, as illusory as my shadows? shadows behind me light always falls to the front illuminates now sending to Postcards from Paradise Recuerda mi Corazon BTW this is my 49th Haiku I'm sure this is a significant number! ;~) PS I'm really getting into this numbers thing, apparently 7 is the perfe...

Hope you had a lovely day despite all that comes with your offspring. The poem is lovely...I would love to know if the moon sings to me, I'll try and quieten down and listen for it.

Love you both with all my heart.
