Today’s Inspiration – Socrates

It is not living that matters, but living rightly.

Socrates

 

Picture taken by me – Kew Gardens

Today’s Inspiration – Khalil Gibran

I am lately taking pictures out of my window of the beautiful sky

because of the lovely colours or clouds.

They go so well with some chosen quotes for a little inspiration.

 

 

Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet

and the winds long to play with your hair.

 

Khalil Gibran

 

Go out and experience it, it makes you feel good!

Have a wonderful day!

 

 

Today’s Inspiration – Albert Camus- Autumn

Autumn is almost here and we are ready for it’s show this year.

Some are starting already!

 

 

Autumn is a second Spring when every leaf is a flower.

Albert Camus

Flowers on Traffic Islands

I have been memory making ……

In Bavaria, I found meadow flowers in roundabouts and on little traffic islands.

This is to attract more bees everywhere.

They are a mixed colourful variety,

Aren’t they just lovely.

 

Such a joy to see them everywhere!

More memories coming soon!

Simply Red

The way you start your day
can affect your whole day…
Begin it with a smile
calmness of mind
coolness of emotions
and a heart filled with gratitude.

Take time to smell the flowers
Take time to hug a tree
Take time to hear each bird sing
Take time to simply be.

 

We might miss some of the beauty on life 

if we don’t slow down

and pay attention to the little things around us.

 

Start your day with the beauty of red today!

         

 

Different shapes,

different shades,

all unique,

all beautiful!

 

Just like you!

 

 

Memories

Leftovers in their less visible form are called memories.

Stored in the refrigerator of the mind and the cupboard of the heart.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As it is holiday time, sunny weather, time to spend with the family or friends we will make memories.

We all take our cameras with us, take pictures and look at them later, remembering a wonderful time.

We should not just go somewhere take pictures and leave.

No, we should take the view in consciously, enjoy the very moment, then take a picture.

Like that when we look at the picture later, we have more emotions and really remember how it was then.

 

 

Therefore, to have great memories we need to walk around with our eyes open and brain working……to keep those amazing images alive in our memory.

Be conscious about what you see, what you feel and what you smell and firstly it makes you feel really alive and you have a whole lot more fantastic memories.

“Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away”

Enjoy the world and the moments consciously and you can enjoy life much more!

 

 

We make memories every day in our lives, not only on holidays.

So make sure you make and give wonderful memories , not only for yourself but also for others, your children, your parents, your friends.

 

Have a memorable day!

Love

Love is patient,

love is kind,

does not envy,

it does not boast,

it is not proud,

it is not rude,

it is not self seeking,

it i not easily angered,

it keeps on record of wrong,

it always protects,

always trusts,

always hopes,

love never fails.

Corinthians13: 4-8

One of my favourite passages written in a really lovely way!

 

Be Kind – Craft

I love creating bits and bobs.

I had pallet wood pieces left and tried something new for me.

You need:

Small pieces of wood

sandpaper

pens,

acrylic paint,

rope

varnish

I am rather happy how it came out.

This is my message for today!

Have an amazingly kind day!

 

Be the change, make a change

Think about how your actions can make a difference in the world.

Yes,

even a small change in your life,

a small deed,

can make a difference!

 

 

Mahatma Ghandi did and so did Mother Teresa, just to name a few.

Feeling low – Here are some helpful pick ups

It is not easy to be always on top of the world.

If you are feeling down at the moment,

here are some quotes to help and a cup of positivitea.

 

Everyday is a new day- a day for new beginnings.

You can only deal with one day at a time.

Don’t stress too much about tomorrow.

Easy does it.

No matter how hard the past,

you can always begin again. – Buddha

Don’t worry about the entire future.

It can only come one day at a time.

Do what you can

with what you have

where you are.

Think of a precious privilege

it is to be alive-

to breathe, to think,. to enjoy 

and to love.

Marcus Aurelius
