abuzz with thoughts

~her mind was abuzz with thoughts~

{as many of ours are}

I love bumble bees

{when even your name has a bee in it, how could you not} :-D

we've planted our English country garden with bees and birds and butterflies in mind

and I've been keeping a close watch on our peony bushes ... buds swelling and ready to burst open any day, they will be the next to supply big dollops of colour in our garden.

I love how it isn't all at once and then over , but bit by bit ... first the crocus , tulips and daffodils, ending with the hibiscus in late July/early August... we only need be patient and mindfully enjoying each and every one as they arrive/depart.

Peony blooms and bumble bees found their way into my latest painting.

Many of my girls are found with their eyes closed ... cultivating mindfulness ... in meditation ... pondering ... serene ... quiet.

I stumbled across a {new to me} quote that I thought was lovely ...

"If you think positively,

Sound

becomes music

Movement

becomes dance

Smile

becomes laughter

Mind

becomes meditation

and Life

becomes celebration"

~Rishika Jain~

something to ponder upon ...

~listen & silent are spelled with the same letters~
