….. a day to do write a letter….. to your future self

Sit sown today

and write a short encouraging letter to your future self.

Include a happy moment you experienced recently,

give yourself some advice, some inspiration,

write something which will make you smile in a years time.

You can include a goal you want to achieve if you like.

This was a letter I wrote to myself 5 years ago and I opened it 1 year after.

Keep it safe somewhere,

It is great fun finding the letter a year later.

Kew – not always blossoms …

What a great tree!

 

I love the wide and colourful variety

of grasses bending in the wind.

 

…and some lovely house leek,

and very old Bonsai Trees.

….. a day to enjoy my home…

Today I am going around from room to room and

look at all the beautiful pictures on my wall,

the plants I have,

the little nicknacks I have displayed.

I look at them consciously with different eyes

and a thankful heart.

I really cherish what I have

to make me feel happy in my home.

Kew – a destination always worth it.

When ever you go,

it is exciting.

Every time there are different plants blooming,

there are more plants to discover and

I can practice and take pictures with my new phone camera.

You can never get tired of this beautiful Garden.

….. a day to do nothing…

Boredom is almost a luxury in our busy and stressful time nowadays.

Today I give myself an hour of doing nothing,

and look forward how I will be doing this.

It might feel really good.

On a beautiful day another visit to Kew Gardens.

There is currently

an exhibition of Dale Chihuly‘s Glass Art in the midst of all plants.

It was a brilliant day with so much to see.

It started off with this amazing glass art sculpture.

While you walk around with me

you see his radiant colours of those glass art pieces

in the midst of plants in Kew.

They fit in so well.

….. a day to praise….

Everyone loves to be praised for something.

It does not need to be anything extraordinary.

Small things in life deserve praise too.

Praise,

like sunlight, helps all things to grow.

Croft. M. Pentz

 

So have you praised some one lately?

Why not do this today!

….. a day to count your blessings….

Don’t count your dollars to see how rich you are. 

Count you memories.

Count your friends.

Count the hugs you get every day.

Count what really matters.

….. a day to love….

To love – what a wonderful feeling.

Today I think of whom and what I love in my life.

 

That fills me with great happiness.

Pass on the love!

 

 

Oslo Impressions – Part 4

You can also visit the Akershus Fortress,

It houses the Resistance Museum.

Beautiful on a sunny day!

It is rather a big area and great to explore.

 

I love a city with history.

We had a short city break in Oslo and loved it.

It is a great cultural city, has many museums and beautiful people.

There is so much more to see.

A reason to go again.
