Safe in the Storm

The outer bands of Hurricane Matthew have found us.  We're just fine and only expecting 

about a half inch of rain so nothing like what others are getting, including our beloved 

St. Augustine, FL.

Joining in the love and prayers being sent to all in the storm's path.

August Break 2015 :: Looking Up

A crutches eye view

Our drive to supper last night.

The rain had stopped pouring

and there was so much beauty.

Thy Word is a Lamp

Hubby and I went for a lovely breakfast 

at Cracker Barrel this morning.

I was enamored with this lamp

and so while waiting for my pecan pancakes,

I took this photo so I could remember.

I love the idea of looking for the light

as I Pilgrimage to Peace.

.            *            .

Breathing thru the "Triggered" . . .

. . . and wanting, 

trying 

to remember 

to trust.

Snow Day

Another blessed snow day

after yesterday's ice storm.

It was so beautiful this morning!

And, 

gratefully, 

we are both warm, safe, dry,

and home.

With the help of warmer temps and the wind, 

most of the ice has been knocked off

of the power lines and trees.

So it would seem this one

has quietly passed.

Thankfully breathing in this moment.

Yes.

Seed of Detaching with Love

(photo credit)

When I first saw 

this beautiful picture,

I stopped.

It was good to 

allow the resonating

beauty, truth and wisdom 

to wash over me.

I'm so drawn to this bridge 

and the gentle reminder 

that sometimes?

I just need to walk away.

 

As I take my light with me,

holding up my umbrella,

it is possible to leave in love   

(or kindness if that's all 

I can manage in the moment),

and trust that this is Enough.

I am thankful to the folks at Soulseeds for 

graciously granting me permission to use this photo.
