Pesky growth

I finally got to exactly where I wanted to be,

she said, so why won’t all these growth experiences

go away & leave me alone?

Stones

Ancient stones

keep the world

used as building blocks

for our homes castles

stairs and walls

stones

on the graves

stones

used as weapons

against the others

Jesus says

He that is without

sin among you

let him first cast

a stone at her -

I hope and pray

that it remains peaceful

in our part of the world

that stones don't fly

against refugees

they are coming

and seeking shelter

may the stone walls

protect them

and not lock them out

The word-inspiration gave me Our Beautiful World

No hiding

Everyone I meet smiles as if they already know & perhaps they do,

since I gave up hiding my heart the moment we met.

Angels of Mercy

Most people don't know there are angels whose only job is to make sure you don't get too comfortable & fall asleep & miss your life.

Friday Five and happy moments

Good morning,

it's friday again and time for Soulfood Friday, Willy Nilly Friday and Five on Friday.

Among other orthopedic problems I'm dealing with a very painful tendonvaginitis
in the left hand, since 5 weeks now.

I'm afraid that they will operate this, I want to avoid it, because it is not really good again after (I was ever operated so). But my self-help insn't very succesful in the moment...

It makes all the everyday things more slowly, if you can only use one hand.

But I want to fokusing to the small happy moments of these days, for which I'm grateful.

We had a few wonderful warm days,

it is almost beyond belief by the cold, which we already had in October.

I've very enjoyed the sun.

Most I like the slow sun at the afternoon in the forest and on my way home.

(linking up with Skywatch Friday, for today not a separate post - )

A special lucky time it is to sit at dusk with the cat in the garden. We are quietly and listen as the birds go to sleep. First they clamor something for the cat ... but then they calm down, still tell each other something, fly on and sit down a few times, to every bird has found its place to sleep.

Then it is dark and quiet in the garden.
I feel the cat next to me. Stroking ... purring...

This is a wonderful end to the day...
