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

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.

All day long we'd be nursing baby and bunny, dress on, dress off, wrapping baby up, washing baby, changing nappies, swaddling her in a blanket, laying her in bed.... I mean the whole day! Then when it was bedtime for granddaughter Connie, of course baby and bunny had to go too... No one has taught her this deep nurturing behavior, it is as natural as breathing... I think this might be why these female doll-like creative expressions keep popping up, why I so enjoy playing with my images, expanding them in the digital playground. As a child I remember the books that had the perforated pull out paper dolls with interchangeable mix and match wardrobes, where the dresses hooked onto the dolls by tabs at the back, this fascinated me. I have the natural desire to nurture, this seems to be deeply seated within the feminine. When looking around 'blogsphere' a profusion of nurturing sister circles have appeared, nourishing and flourishing!  I have come to the real

Continuum

A Continuum ~> continual sequence of ~> elemental change ~> By far this is the most difficult post written by myself, ever. I have not visited this place for sometime... I have been 'lying low' as an old friend used to put it, not low through depression or anything like that but since my love passed away parts of my known world have passed too. I have difficulty recognizing the landscape around me, I'm lying low so that I can absorb some of the new terrain. I am still quite dizzy, it's going to take some time... Much of what I wrote about here in this space would involve a brief glimpse of 'my love' and our life together. I had thought of closing 'Finding my Bliss', for a pivotal part of everything this blog has stood for seemed on the surface of things to be missing! But as the days have come and gone I am beginning to look at things in a different light and although I am grieving for my love I find I am l feeling his prese
