...everybody's gotta start at nothing...

...sometimes nothing is everything...
~brent james -album: moment of silence

infinite riches
are all around you
if you will open up your mental eyes
and behold the treasure house of infinity within you.
there is a gold mine within you
 from which you can extract everything
you need to live life
gloriously,
joyously,
and abundantly.
~joseph murphy

  1. All it takes for growth is the tiniest bit of sunlight, and there is no impediment to growing, be it a deck or a sidewalk. Nothing to deter it...

    Celebrations of longevity of a lovely relationship results in a late night and little sleep. The celebratory mood shall never age, 3:00 AM merely a point in time...Congrats!

  4. Hello, little green thing shooting up between the deck boards--how are you today?

    IF I HAD A SHADOW

    If I had a shadow as big as the sky,
    I never would fear, and I’ll tell you why:

    My shadow would save me from dragons and things
    That fly in the night with terrible wings;

    My shadow would keep me away from the beast
    That sniffs in the west and sniffs in the east

    Hungry for children who play all alone,
    Hoping to feast upon blood, upon bone;

    My shadow would be my protector and knight
    To keep fear at bay, to banish all fright.

    I’m so glad my shadow is always nearby,
    Though it’s not nearly as big as the sky!

  5. Love the freshness of this determined new growth in your photo! The boards are a challenge but that does not stop the plant stamping its identity!

  6. Happy anniversary kids and so lucky to still like each other, it's not easy in this old world these days to be friends in marriage, but it sounds like you guys have great bones!!!

    Got some rain a moment ago, just enough to get me sprinkled on the way to closing down the coop...I left a piece of furniture in the back of my truck, cause it always rains when I do...guess I better load up the truck with stuff huh. The rain lasted long enough to give the parched earth that smell of hope, but not enough for it to smell like dew worms...you know the smell right!

    Had 2 more eggs in the nest when I got home from work, hope the other two start to get the idea soon or they could be joining Louie for Sunday dinner.

    Have a great Sunday lil Sis...hey Tilda, shall we do the rain dance!!! The word verification is 'muckle'...it's a sign...right!
