Walk...

Everyday I'm interacting with mother nature while walking other peoples dogs. This gives me lots of opportunities to observe and bath in her beauty. The other day I posted about the Mimosa tree and now another awesome tree is in bloom ~ the Crape Myrtle. With its beautiful cluster of flowers, and when they start to drop off, leave behind this blanket of confetti that covers the ground. Just so pretty...

Flowing...

"When the student is ready the teacher will appear."

Because I am such a detailed oriented person, flowing with life is hard for me, but I've been trying to allow that more into my life. To just observe and flow with what is. So I guess I was ready, because a lady I work with on events is very - not detailed oriented ( even though the events have lots of details that go alone with them), she does not seem fazed by any of that process. Drives me crazy, but I've decided she is here to be my teacher, that will teach me how to better flow with what life gives me.

Blooming...

"Bloom Where Your Planted"

I've been inspired by natural a lot lately and today as I was bending down to observe a small creek, I was reminded of "bloom where your planted."  I saw random plants growing in the most unusual places and water finding a way to keep going despite the obstacles in its way. But it was all so beautiful and I thought, "my life is not all that I would like it to be, but I'm still growing ( blooming) and finding a way, despite what I see as obstacles in my life."

Saturday...

What did I observe today?

I like Quiet time

I need the out doors to keep my sanity 

I can hang in a crowd if I have to but its out of my comfort zone

strangers can be kind

I'm passionate about my business

I have generous friends

I'm learning to show up for myself

until tomorrow...

SURPRISE!!!

I always thought I liked surprises, but a couple of times lately people have come over to my house without warning. And my reaction ( without trying to show it) is like this picture. So I was pondering this thought as to "why" I have this reaction. I'm not sure only to say, I feel like I need to prepare myself ( whatever that means) and then it's all okay. But it is something I want to explore about myself more. Am I too protective and guarded of myself or is it just a part of my personality? Either way it is interesting to observe and decide how I feel about this part of me.
