Is there only one-way?
I don’t think so,
there are many ways and detours
the question is:
Did you choose the right way?

Early mornings the sun is shining directly in my kitchen. I love to watch the light and shadows dancing on the bottles, jars…, it’s a magical moment.

My journal is the nest of my creativity. In there, I give freedom to my imagination. I let the words lay down on the pages. Words expressing my feelings and ideas. I know my words will be free and sheltered from any damage in my journal.

Yesterday we had our first snowfall for this season, so lovely to watch the snowflakes reaching the ground. Of course, the first snowfall and the first week of snow are magical, but as the time goes by it becomes very difficult to accept the heavy snow that accumulates on the streets and sidewalks. Here is an acrostic poem for you.
Snow
Lovely and magical
Unbelievable the softness and design
Demanding all the attention to drive and walk
Gear up and go out
Enjoy the outdoors before the sludge shows up

Particular is a split second moment when the view from your kitchen is like a Monet painting. A cup of coffee in your hand, the silence, and a new day ahead.

Last flowers from this year
they were charming my garden
now they sit here
in the crystal vase from my mother’s wedding
a gift older to the new couple
now a treasure to me
their fragrance takes me back to the past
to memories worth to keep, to joy and beauty.

The leaves in my yard are pretty. I thought in taking a close up of them, but I was too lazy to go down on my knees to take the photo. I turned my phone upside down and without looking and focusing I clicked! Here it is, a great photo! You can see my pumpkins, on the sidewalk, waiting the recycle truck 🙂 they are a bonus to the photo, since I didn’t see them there before taking the photo.

Nasty weather around here, it’s getting colder and snow is on the way. Glad I stayed indoors during lunch time, I didn’t need to fight with the wind to keep the umbrella up.

I love to collect leaves and bring them indoors to decorate my home. I put them in my tiny vases and spread beauty around my home. When they dry I return them back to nature. I got these ones in my front yard where my beautiful maple tree is letting go of them, getting ready for the long winter that is coming. I collected these leaves, I gave a hug to my tree and I said thank you!

I made a mandala as well. I organized the leaves on the table and when I took the photo I saw that the light was reflecting exactly in at the center of the mandala. Isn’t it magical?
On Tuesday I didn’t have an easy day at work. So, instead open the door and bring all the work stress inside home I stopped in my yard, took a deep breath and saw all nature beauty around me. The few minutes I spent collecting these leaves and talking with my tree were enough to put a smile in my face to greet my kids.
Have a lovely day!
