I wanted to take the time to day to stop in and thank the many followers of my blog, and big thank you to those of you who have sent your prayers, blessings and hugs to my mamma. Its a very trying time, with stresses coming at every angle for every member of my family. Mamma tells her many doctors that the reason she's doing so well is due to those quilty prayers from all over the world.
Even with our huge support system there are times when I feel it's hard to keep my feet firmly on the ground and mind free of negativity.
Taking a walk around the property usually puts my thoughts back where they need to be, calm and serene.
During my walk last I wanted to get some pictures of the fall colors before they completely disappeared. When transferring my pictures to the computer I realized that they almost explained how I felt. When I started my walk I took the picture above. The beautiful trees and pond were hidden, kinda like the negative thoughts in my mind that were keeping me from my peaceful inner feelings.
As I walked along the and the weight on my heart started to lift, so did the scenery shown below.
A few more steps and couple sighs later....the view and my heart opened up once again. My sewing room is my happy place, but cannot compare to the beauty and the wisdom of nature.
Thanks again to all who keep us in your thoughts and prayers, and know that your are in ours also.

Hope all is better with your mom my dear?

That is gorgeous! You are so lucky to live in such a beautiful place! You are my sweet friend and can call me any time! My favorite Bible verse is "Don't worry about anything, instead, pray about everything" Phillipians 4:6 That sure is easier said than done though, isn't it. Wish I could be there to help you out. Please try to take care of yourself! Love you!
ReplyDeleteInspiring scenery for sure. Rooting for your mom (and you!)

ReplyDeleteLea Anne, Your post really touched my heart; your comparisons and revealing thoughts were beautiful. Thank you for sharing every thing that you do! I wish that no one had to ever face the battle that your Mom, you and your family are fighting...only we all do at some point. Many years ago, my Aunt and Uncle (plus the entire family) faced the battle with their son. I will continue to keep you and your family in my prayers; tell your Mother that I also send a hug. Have a wonderful creative day!
ReplyDeleteHope on the whole things are getting better. Looks like you are taking care of yourself with the walks and sewing. My prayers are with you and your family.
