I am finding that I am not as diligent I would like to be when it comes to blogging. It is really more difficult that I had thought.......just deciding really what this blog is about and what I want to say. I am not a great writer and I so admire people that have just the right words to express how they are feeling. I love running across quotes that say exactly what I am thinking and say it so much more eloquently that I could. From this month's Oprah magazine, Eckhart Tolle writes, "....In all things that we tend to overlook: feeling the gentle breeze on your skin, the sunlight filtering through the clouds, the sound of the rain, the wagging tail of a dog, the shiny apple you are about to bite into. You notice the in-and-out flow of your breath, the feeling of aliveness inside your body. And then there is the beautiful stillness behind it all, which is deep within you. It is through gratitude for the present moment that the spiritual dimension of life opens up. So let's celebrate our anniversaries as they arise. What we are really celebrating though, is the present moment, the doorway into Spirit, and all there ever is." That's what I wanted to say!
This is going to be my way of communicating with, first of all, myself and then with anyone else who chooses to read my rambling thoughts and random images.

Journaling
One of my favorite birthday presents from yesterday was a journal. On the cover are the words "Live, Love, and Laugh"....beautiful words for the beginning of a new year. Since, of course, I am getting older, the quote on the first page of the journal was also definitely apropos..."Live your life and forget your age." Norman Vincent Peale
