Hearts


Random acts of kindness - they are abundant on this Valentine’s Day.  What are you hoping for?  Flowers….such natural beauty – sure to bring great smiles, Candy….sweets for the heart – always a favorite – something bigger, greater – something more sustaining. 
 How high is your expectation to feel - to show – to know – love?

Something happened to me today that I wanted to share, not a huge floral arrangement, nor the chocolate fountain of happiness – no, it was truly a random act of kindness and from the most unexpected place – it was from above.  Just landed on my desk at work, random……act….of……Love

Took out a folder, took off the band holding it all together….looked down at my desk
 
 
So what....a random heart fell from the sky made out of a rubber band  - big deal right!!! 

Well yes, it is, such an unexpected smile from the universe to say - I LOVE YOU!! 

Practice random acts of kindness and senseless acts of beauty - today and everyday....know that you are all LOVED by more than just those who are here to show you.....expect miracles!
 
Happy Valentines Day!!

Spring


Ah Spring….what a beautiful day it is out today.  Bright sunshine, warm breezes rustling the budding trees.  Look, by the shed, the crocus and iris are just popping up through the soft ground.  
 


From you have I been absent in the spring
When proud-pied April, dress’d in all his trim,
Hath put a spirit of youth in every thing,
That heavy Saturn laugh’d and leap’d with him.
Yet nor the lays of birds, nor the sweet smell
Of different flowers in odour and in hue,
Could make me any summer’s story tell,
Or from their proud lap pluck them where they grew:
Nor did I wonder at the lily’s white,
Nor praise the deep vermilion in the rose;
They were but sweet, but figures of delight,
Drawn after you, you pattern of all those.
Yet seem’d it winter still, and you away,
As with your shadow I with these did play

Sonnet 98 by William Shakespeare

How I love this day – the promise of renew…..I so have missed you, my beloved spring, truly I must be lost in a daydream – awash with your beauty…….
 
MOM….MOM….MOM! 
 
Wake up – you fell asleep and Bella needs to go out……it’s very cold and snowing again; she probably needs her coat on….
38 days till Spring
