Pokarekare Ana (for this first week in May) so I can observe the blog silence tomorrow...


 

There is a terrible hunger for love. We all experience that in our lives - the pain, the loneliness. We must have the courage to recognize it. The poor you may have right in your own family.
Find them.
Love them.

I am flying this morning to visit my Mother and although I will be on the computer from time to time while I am there ~ I will not want to take away from my visit with her so as much time as I would like to spend with each of you (especially to make up for the time I have not this week because of work), I will only spend short visits with you, but to each and everyone of you I would like to say "May

Your rainbow will come smiling through...

 
The work will wait while you
show the child the rainbow,
but the rainbow won't wait
while you do the work.

Have faith in your dreams and someday
your rainbow will come smiling through.
No Matter how your heart is grieving,
if you keep believing,
the dream that you wish will come true.

The true harvest of my life...

 
The true harvest of my life is intangible ~
a little stardust caught,
a portion of the rainbow I have clutched.
~Henry David Thoreau

Don't miss all the beautiful colors
of the rainbow looking for the pot of gold!

May God give you...
For every storm a rainbow,
for every tear a smile,
and a blessing in each trial.
For every problem life sends,
a faithful friend to share,
for every sigh a sweet song,
and an answer for each prayer.
~Irish Blessing

From the book of Genesis

 
"And God said, 'This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come: I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.'"

The Rainbow Connection

 


There is nothing more beautiful than a rainbow -
but it takes both rain and sunshine to make one.
If life is to be rounded and many-colored,
like a rainbow, both joy and sorrow
must come into it.
~Scott Holman

Let us never forgot the rainbow is a promise.
And God wants us to know...

Time with a friend....

 
 
(Different type blog for me, but along the same lines
as it is about nature but actual happenings.. .)

Spent the afternoon with a friend in a park -
just walking, sitting and talking -
it was wonderful - it was honest - it was real....

As good as fishing in a well stocked pond
or camping at the edge of a beautiful river...

Made me remember why I love people so much -
real sincere people.

If laughter is good medicine -
than I had a lot of good medicine today.

But more important - it felt good to share....
(Laughter, stories, and time...)

I thank you God...

I thank you God for this most amazing day,
for the leaping greenly spirits of trees,
and for the dream of sky,
and for everything which is natural,
which is infinite,
which is yes.

for private, individual, selfish miracles
when every year there are
miracles like white dogwoods.

Look at the trees

 
 

Look at the trees, look at the birds,

look at the clouds, look at the stars...

And if you have eyes you will be able to see

that the whole existence is joyful.
 
Everything is simply happy.

Trees are happy for no reason;
 
They are not going to become prime ministers
or presidents,
 
and they are not going to become rich,
 
And they will never have any bank balance.

Look at the flowers - for no reason.
 
It is simply unbelievable
 
how happy flowers are.

I believe that there is a subtle magnetism in Nature,
which, if we unconsciously yield to it,
will direct us aright.

Entry for April 17, 2007

 

If the sight of the blue skies
fills you with joy,
If a blade of grass springing up in the fields
has the power to move you,
If the simple things of nature have a message
that you understand,
Rejoice, for your soul is alive...
~Eleonora Duse

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings.
Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
The winds will blow their own freshness into you,
and the storms their energy,
while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.
