Ostara blessing

March 21st, 2013

Yesterday was Ostara also known as the first day of spring. I’m not sure where spring is in my area. We seem to be having the winter the never ends.

Ostara blessing

May Ostara bring joy and easiness into your lives,
may her fertility be passed over to you and may your dreams, ideas, wishes, plans ripen and bear new fruits.

May the loveliness of spring open your hearts and may you understand the beauty of being and take it in.

Full of strength and new energy you shall walk into the brightness of the awakening spring and you shall leave the darkness of the past time behind.

Let go all former burdens and get rid of the ballast still hindering you.
Free and with new strength your feet shall carry you towards dawn.

May Ostara bless you all!

Judgment

January 16th, 2013

Judgment, what a harsh word. Yet, it’s something every person does. Now, I can you hear saying, but not me. I never judge.  Lets rethink that for a minute.
Unfortunately, this world has become a world of judgment. But then again, has it ever not been ruled by judgment?

Politics and Religion, are two topics that will get even the best of friends in a head lock. Family members can turn their back on each other.  If a person doesn’t see things as the other does. Before you know it, you’ve got head butting going on for not believing as the other does. I’ve always wondered why people can be so closed minded like that. As if their beliefs are the only one that is right.
I could take a stand and say I don’t judge, and that I believe each person has the right to believe as they wish too. Which IS how I feel. However, am I not judging those that don’t see the issue as I? For example, I’ve found myself saying “They really need to open their mind and see that their opinion isn’t the only one out there” That comment is judgmental, but disguised as an argument for peace.  I never intended to be judgmental but that’s exactly what I’ve done, judge.

There are people that are more judgmental then other’s. I know a person that judges many people. They act as if they’ve never made a mistake. (see, now that’s me judging the person) They even will judge people on tv. Could be a movie, tv series, or even a reality show. I have a hard time wrapping my head around why a person would be so judgmental. All I can say  about the person is, they are who they are, it is what it is. Shrug my shoulders and move on.

While I feel it’s impossible to have a judgmental free world. Isn’t it possible to think of a world with more peace and way less judging? Why must we be hard headed and believe that our opinion is the only one out there that is right?
Why must people trash talk a tv a show? It’s not like that show is personally affecting us.

This blog is not directed towards anyone. If you take something personally, I apologize. However, maybe you might want to take a long look into your life to see why you think it might be. What is it that you can change about being judgmental? Just a thought.

Love N Light to all! Live today as if it’s your last. Love as if you’ve never been hurt. Smile at a stranger just because.

Thunder

June 28th, 2012

It’s about 6 in the morning and I haven’t gone to sleep. I have insomnia. That’s what usually keeps me awake.
I like to joke around and say I’m a vampire because I seem to get a spurt of energy at night and drag through out the day.
However, the lack of sleep this time is not caused by insomnia, but pain. I hurt from my head to my toes. Every movement I make hurts. I can’t get comfortable. I’ve taken all my meds like a good girl. No relief in sight unfortunately.
Those of you with chronic pain understand what I’m talking about. There are just some days your  body has other ideas.

Thor decided to make an appearance a bit ago with a bit of thunder. Nothing major but enough to scare my dog.  I had gotten up to do a few things and she was right next to me. I came back to bed and she hopped right up on the bed with me. Wasn’t but a minute or so later she crawled up next to me. She’s a big dog with a little dog complex. She thinks she’s a lap dog.Smile with tongue out
Last night she was literally sitting on my lap like a child would.  Whatcha gonna do? I love my pets as if they were my children.

I snapped a pic of Guess (my dog) laying next to me, her head on a pillow. Poor girl was terrified.

Guess scared of thunder june 2012

Look at that precious face. Poor girl.  How could I refuse her a spot on my  bed?
With that being said the thunder has stopped and she’s still next to me. Only now she is snoozing. LOL

I’ll leave ya’ll with this. Don’t waste time being angry for small things. Embrace the ones you love and tell them. Time seems to go by fast and you don’t want to wish later that you had said “I love you” more often. 
Lets leave our past where it belongs, in the past. Live for today because tomorrow isn’t guaranteed.

Laugh Of The Day

June 12th, 2012

THE TOILET SEAT
My wife, Julie, had been after me for several weeks to paint the seat on our toilet. Finally, I got around to doing it while Julie was out. After finishing, I left to take
care of another matter before she returned.
She came in and undressed to take a shower.

Before getting in the shower, she sat on the toilet.

As she tried to stand up,

she realized that the not-quite-dry epoxy paint

had glued her to the toilet seat.


About that time, I got home and realized her predicament.
We both pushed and pulled without any success whatsoever.

Finally, in desperation, I undid the toilet seat bolts.


Julie wrapped a sheet around herself and I drove her

to the hospital emergency room.


The ER Doctor got her into a position where he

could study how to free her

(Try to get a mental picture of this.).


Julie tried to lighten the embarrassment of it all by saying,

"Well, Doctor, I’ll bet you’ve never seen anything like this before."
The Doctor replied, "Actually, I’ve seen lots of them……
I just never saw one mounted and framed."
