Tuesday's Blessing Flower 11-10-15

Hello and happy Tuesday.  We had a little sun today so I found a little flower for you.  I looked on the internet but couldn't find a name for this little jewel.  It bloomed up from the shallow water amid the lily pads.   It's very delicate and I was afraid to kayak too closely.  Hurting this beauty would make me sad.  And who wants to be sad on Tuesday?  Especially when I have this little paper thin blessing.

I hope you had a terrific Tuesday with many blessings.  Thanks for looking.  See you tomorrow.

Wednesday's Flower

Hello.  This is a Clematis flower that we planted next to our mailbox a few years ago.  As with every year, they are very beautiful and I really enjoyed them surrounding the mailbox this year.  Looking at flowers can somehow increase the joy in a my day.  I'm not quite sure why, but when I look at a beautiful flower - even if it comes from a "weed" - I feel comforted.  Even if I am extremely busy, if I see flowers, I just have to stop for a moment, breath deeply, and feel the peace from deep inside me.
Take a breath with me, and feel your peace.

I hope you've had a wonderful, peace filled Wednesday.  Thanks for looking.  Peace and blessings to you all.  See you tomorrow.

Sunset Good Friday

The boats are quiet tonight on this Good Friday sunset.  Maybe they're not all fishing boats, but when I see this picture I think of the phrase Jesus used about "fishers of men".  This is a special Friday and weekend and reminds me that I believe God is love!  I do believe in Jesus and God and I do believe that God is love.  I also believe that a lot of hate, war and murder is erroneously credited to God.  People choose to believe what they believe and some people really do believe that God wants war and God hates.  I prefer that God wants what John Lennon sang about in the song Imagine.  Can't we all just get along and love each other, no matter what?  When we spread and nurture seeds of love, then hate cannot grow.

Thank you for indulging me tonight.  Thank you for looking.  I wish peace and blessings to all.  See you tomorrow.
