the meadow, and in the night

On being Happy


I have always been drawn to this tree. It is a grandmother tree.....at my friend Laveena's house.
I snapped a picture of it the other night when we were there for dinner.
hope you enjoy the words below!!!
Namaste,

We are happy in proportion to the things we can do without.

This photo was taken by Matt Platz, a facebook friend of mine.

He has such a gift. He gave me permission to use this picture.....isn't it beautiful????
Have a great day!!!...and hope you like the words below.

Why should we be in such desperate haste to succeed,
and in such desperate enterprises?
If a man does not keep pace with his companions,
perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer.
Let him step to the music which he hears, how ever measured or far away.

Nonconformity


Macy took this picture at Omega last week.
These were drums that some of the kids used during the week.
hope you are having a great day.
read the quote below!!...it kinda reminded me to go ahead and be who I am...I needed this ...esp. after last night....I walked up to Giant Eagle and bought groceries and then walked the mile home with my canvas bags...people probably think that I am a weirdo....well I am.
Namaste,
Michele

The Here and Now


You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave,
find your eternity in each moment.
