It has been weeks since I have written an entry to my journal…The leaves have suddenly changed on the trees outside my window and autumn’s stay is not lasting long enough for my liking. For some reason I have lost the last entry in this journal and that is too bad because a lot of heart was put into it’s writing…
Perhaps it is just as well. A heartfelt entry lost to the world…out there some place in cyber space. Maybe it will land into someones laps who will need to read the musing of an old lady who is forever reaching for the stars and hoping for the best.
However, life does not always bring out the best in people. No one can be more disillusioned than I as I watch the world speed by and it’s people confused and disoriented. Label it age but I like the calm of security, the warmth of good friends and the love of dear family members. I am saddened when I see the discontent that lives in others. I wish they can be touched by a divine knowledge that explains the workings of the universe…
SIMPLE IS BEST…
I still harken toward the simple things.. the sweet smell of a baby, the taste of homemade bread and the puffy white clouds that skim the sky. What ever happened to stopping and smelling the roses..?
The summer month ended with a birthday celebration at Disneyland and the birth of two great grandsons…what can be better than that..? Fall came quickly. The mountains have turned golden to red to snow capped peaks. It seems like over night my trees have turns green to yellow and now pushing brown then bare. Winter is anxiously awaiting its turn…
tRADITIONS…
We have picked up our pumpkins and decorated the front grass as a gastly graveyard. Tomorrow we travel to the mouse house for another birthday celebration. We anticipate alot of tricks and treats there. Our 7 year old will be decked out in a white fairy princess costume that lights and twinkles as she walks. She is prepared to have lots of fun…
I hope as the holidays fast approach we gain a greater appreciation for the simple things that delight the heart. Times have become confusing enough that reaching out to others in need of a warm hand of friendship is one of the best things we can do.
I hope autumn’s blush kisses you all on the cheek!!
