Think Like a Tree




Soak up the sun

affirm life's magic

be graceful in the wind

stand tall after a storm

feel refreshed after it rains

grow strong without notice

be prepared for each season

provide shelter to strangers

hang tough through a cold spell

emerge renewed at the first signs of spring

stay deeply rooted while reaching for the sky

be still long enough to hear your own leaves rustling.

 ~Karen Shragg


Have a lovely weekend.

See you back here on Monday, if not sooner.

So beautiful. What a badge to wear and share.

We will light a special candle for your family tomorrow night as we celebrate Candlemas.

Every time I come to your blog I find such delight! The embroidery on his pants is so sweet and pretty.
