Thankful {things I love} Thursday ...

Poppy

for my soul

Remembering

(November 11th) and forever Thankful and Grateful

to our veterans who knew the meaning of sacrifice

for my hands

Journaling

Starting my day with tea, candles and my journal. Jotting down my thoughts for the day.

"Reflecting on our day we find what is sacred.

Through our senses the spirit speaks.

Walking the path of life we tread on holy ground.

Ordinary everyday events and things radiate the divine"

~Sr. Stan~ 

for my feet

We have been experiencing exceptionally gorgeous weather and have been taking full advantage of it!

Biking as much as possible taking in the weather  and gorgeous scenery. 

"Maybe the journey isn't so much about becoming anything.

Maybe it's about un-becoming everything that isn't really you,

so you can be who you were meant to be

in the first place"

~Paul Coelho~ 

for my mouth

Made a dozen delicious dinner rolls. They were perfect this week for the black bean veggie burgers I made! 

I formed the patties a little bit smaller and turned them into sliders :-) 

"The elimination diet:

Remove anger, regret, resentment, guilt, blame and worry.

Then watch your health, and life, improve'

~Charles F Glassman~ 

 for my eyes

Gift from the Sea has always been one of my favourite books and I find myself taking it off the shelf and re-reading it often.  Here, it sits amongst my own "gifts from the Lake". 

"I want to live simply.

I want to sit by the window when it rains and read book I'll never be tested on.

I want to paint because I want to, not because I've got something to prove.

I want to listen to my body, fall asleep when the moon is high

and wake up slowly, with no place to rush off to.

I want not to be governed by money or clocks or any of the artificial restraints

that humanity imposes on itself.

I just want to be, boundless and infinite"
