Seeking Answers

-
Yesterday I went on a journey to seek answers to Life's Mysteries. They call them life's mysteries because there are no answers. But, I thought going to a few places without leaving New Jersey might help. It did help as I saw so many amazing places. I went to Albert Einstien's house for some wisdom. I went to a hindu temple for some understanding. And, I went to Grounds for Sculpture to view nature and imagination come together with the beauty of creation. It certainly helped and I was able to get a solid eight hours sleep last night. I will share what I saw in my stories today. Mostly what I learned was to appreciate all of life's beauty and to appreciate it and not question it. This is my path, but it is also the path that God is setting out for me, now. I just have to keep moving forward. I don't want to get stuck in the mud, I am in right now. Quote by Albert Einstien: Imagination is more important than knowledge. Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving. Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions. Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe. If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. Coincidence is God's way of remaining anonymous. In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity. The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better. All of these quotes are so fitting I included them all. ( Sorry how the blog edits and will run them together. ) Song of the Day Bruce Springsteen: Hello Sunshine

Hello 2021

During this time of isolation and reflection, I am going to embrace and celebrate this little girl. I am not going to go on a diet, plan an excercise stragedy or change my lifestyle. I am simply going to go with the flow of my life, like a river. I am going to get on a big, comfortable floaty and jump in the river. Climb onto the floaty and hold on for dear life. I am going to put my head back and enjoy the ride. With my eyes wide open, so I can appreciate all the beauty that surrounds me. If I bump into any obstacles, I am going to take them as they come. I am not going to let anything stop me from the joy of a river ride. I am going to listen to music, soak in the sun, handle all of my problems, eat what makes me feel good (hopefully it will be more healthy) and breath in the good and take a big exhale of the bad. The time is right for appreciating how far of a ride I have been on. And, simply put, appreciate what I have accomplished. But, also nurture myself, so I can grow o...

Living alone with the holidays quickly approaching can be difficult. I indulged in something for myself this year. It is an advent calender from Lauduree with parisian sweets. I am kinda obsessed with Lauderee. It is a french bakery and confectionery store originating in Paris. I became familiar with it from social media and artists who would paint pictures of macarons. I collected a few cookbooks. And, when Kaylyn and I visited Paris in 2008, it was high on my list of places to visit. It had a line outside and it was very cold. I hate to admit this, but I wanted the bag, tissue paper and ribbon more then anything. I still have it, because I would like to do some crafting with it. I want to decopauge shells and make a mobile as a homage to where I am living. The name of my apartment is the Versaille Chalet and I have been sharing snippits of my place a little bit in my stories on instagram. I felt an instant connection with this place when I saw it on the internet. I sa...

Take Joy

I finished the wreath! I haven't been able to accomplish so much in one day in a lonnnng time. Bought a tree and had it decorated by 3pm! I am amazed and found joy in doing it. Here is something I read in the beginning of December, which always helps: I salute you. I am your friend, and my love for you goes deep. There is nothing I can give you which you have not. But there is much, very much, that, while I cannot give it, you can take. No heaven can come to us unless our hearts find rest in it today. Take heaven! No peace lies in the future which is not hidden in this present little instant. Take peace! The gloom of the world is but a shadow. Behind it, yet within our reach, is joy. There is radiance and glory in darkness, could we but see. And to see, we have only to look. I beseech you to look! Life is so generous a giver. But we, judging its gifts by their covering, cast them away as ugly or heavy or hard. Remove the covering, and you will find beneath it a living spl...
