It’s the little things in life !
I live for the little moments in life. My health challenges are my greatest teacher.
They remind me to see the beauty in everything and to be grateful for the small things. I am grateful for so many things. I remember when I could not get out of my bed and I think to myself that if I can get out of bed then anything else is a bonus.
Start each day with a positive thought and a grateful heart (Roy T Bennett)
The little moments create peace for me. WW Matthew snapped these duck pictures when he was on his travels and I saw the profound beauty in it. Capturing beautiful moments fills me with a joy and sense of wonder that cannot be expressed in words.
I try to see the beauty in all moments. Life to me is a set of moments and to me it is to live it and make the best of each moment, even when life is challenging or very very challenging at times. I accept life is a challenge with ups and downs and I try to remember that we grow more in the downs than ups.
Life is for living, experiencing it all along the journey until the end.
Death is not often talked about but we are all going to the same place. There is nothing in life more sure than death.
I remember that I will be eaten by worms one day and returned to the earth.
Men have died from time to time, and worms have eaten them, but not for love (William Shakespeare)
I am just a speck in the universe, just one of seven billion other people on this planet. There is no point in me thinking I am special or too self important in anyway. This usually keeps the ego that we all have in check, balanced and in harmony with life. I have learned to love my ego, to see it as a part of me and part of the whole of me.
The duck pictures shows the beauty of nature and reminds me to try to make heart based decisions and choices. I try to remain living my life, a life that is meant for me, following my dreams and not trying to live someone else’s life or dreams.
Don’t be pushed around by the fears in your mind. Be led by the dreams in your heart. (Roy T Bennett)
When a duck strides into my life, it also reminds me of the old saying, “water off a ducks back.” To try and take life less seriously and just let any unkind comments slide off my back without affecting me.
Lets keep quacking on !! 🙂
