I don't know how many of you follow
or read the teachings of Abraham brought
through by Esther and Jerry Hicks but this
particular video moves me to tears every
time I watch it...it is Joy untold, Beauty
personified and Simplistic Truth! Oh,
that we could have the Spirit of Dog!
Enjoy your Friday evening and I hope
that you are well, wherever your heart
resides this night!

Eskimo Song
Eskimo Song
I'm filled with joy
when the day dawns quietly
over the roof of the sky.
Life was wonderful
in winter.
But did winter make me happy?
No, I always worried
about hides for boot-soles
and for boots;
and if there'd be enough
for all of us.
Yes, I worried constantly.
Life was wonderful
in summer.
But did summer make me happy?
No, I always worried
about reindeer skins and rugs for the platform.
Yes, I worried constantly.
Life was wonderful
when you stood at your fishing-hole
on the ice.
But was I happy waiting at my fishing-hole?
No, I was always worried
for my little hook,
in case it never got a bite.
Yes, I worried constantly.
Life was wonderful
when you danced in the feasting-house.
But did this make me any happier?
No, I always worried
I'd forget my song.
Yes, I worried constantly.
Life was wonderful...
And still I feel joy
each time the day-break
whitens the dark sky
each time the sun
climbs over the roof of the sky.

Life Lesson?
Stop worrying!!!
Just feel that Joy!
Have a Blessed Day!

Salutation to the Dawn
Sanskrit Salutation To The Dawn
Listen to the salutation to the dawn,
Look to this day for it is life,
the very life of life,
In its brief course lie all the verities
and realities of our existence.
The bliss of growth, the splendour
of beauty,
For yesterday is but a dream and
tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well therefore to this day.
Such is the salutation to the dawn.
***************************
I've been quiet of late...part of it
is because my new computer is
being worked on...and so I am
trying valiantly to post from my
Old Dragon...she is faithful to
be sure...
But the other part is...I have
awakened most every day this
week, to be greeted by Fog...
lots and lots of Fog in my neck
of the woods...it always puts a
different perspective on things,
eh? I actually have enjoyed it
and embraced it for what it is...
I love the muffled sounds it
brings...muted tones...a quieting
down of the busy-ness of life.
A trusting that behind that veil
of Fog, things are still there,
still functioning, still touching.
Then comes the cool part when
the fog begins to part, dissipate,
and what was once lost to the
eyes, is now seen. I once was
lost but now am found type of
thing. And then the total 'un-'
veiling and the knowing that all
things were there all along? It
is a magickal time, that unvieling.
Followed by a quiet joy that
bubbles up from within.
It was after the unveiling I saw
my first Robin of spring flying in
from the East towards me...Oh
the happiness that warmed my
insides! I wonder and delight at
their return each spring and have
to write it down on my calender.
Just something about their return
that moves me in my knowing that
Spring truly is here! So in between
the raindrops I went out to see if
anything is sprouting in the flower
beds...I see the Foxglove made it
through the winter...and today I
will truly go out for a good look
as the sun is shining this morning.
Therefore I will look to this day to
bring me the quiet joy I livingly
and lovingly seek, and knowing the
Fog always burns away, and I am
never truly lost or without my
senses.

Sharing Pure Joy....
I've consciously been practicing Joy.
It's addictive. It's fun. It's laughter.
It's contagious. So this morning
upon rising I turned on the tele,
(which isn't the smartest thing to
do first thing) but I am sooooo
happy I did because the first thing
that hit my senses was a report
on this older couple who are
making news with their impromptu
piano duet when visiting Mayo clinic
for a check-up. You can see the
Joy they experience as they play
together...and you know that they
have done this together a time or
two before...Joy exude's from them!
They've been married 62 years and the
husband will be 90 this year...
Anywhoooo...I am sharing the video
with all of you and hope it will make
you giggle with delight as much as it
did me! I bring you Joy!!!!! :)
