Sunday Reflections

"Once the chick has emerged from its shell or a butterfly from its chrysalis, there is no going back, but there is a continuous unfolding into the new. Let the action of unfolding be a day-by-day, hour-by-hour, minute-by-minute process. Find that rhythm in life and flow with it, not against it, so you will find peace of heart and mind."-----Eileen Caddy

See you Monday with a recipe I prepared on this rainy and gray day. For now, I will return to my cup of tea and my current book, Another fool in the Balkans by Tony White.

Blue Sky

Gracias a todos por sus palabras de aliento. Thank you all for your words of support, and as a token of my appreciation,

how about if join me for a cup of tea? I've heard it brings peace of mind and happiness when shared with friends.

It's only six-oh-five in the morning but I'm sure the waiter can make an exception and open early?

Or we can walk to the next cafe, its only minutes away

Or the next one..

Or maybe take a stroll along the Sea. Afterwards return to that cafe. I will order a cup of Fresh-n-Fruity tea. (pineapple,orange, apple, ginger and mint leaves) What will you have?

"Tea is wealth itself, because there is nothing that can't be lost, no problem that will not disappear, no burden that will not float away, between the first sip and the last."-----Henry David Thoreau

Flying To Freedom

This morning I woke up with a positive outlook to life. Reading The Price of Happiness by Nando inspires anyone to rethink their personal situation. I personally liked this line from his blog,"let your heart dictate your choices for a while."

I decided that today I am listening to my heart and I saw Happiness when I saw these birds flying across the sea.

It was very windy and I couldn't tell if they were struggling to fly against the current of the wind or if they were just gliding. Either way I saw beauty in that.

Enjoy these pictures I took of my daughter this morning and you might like to listen to John Denver. It is a beautiful song!


The sun is hiding behind the clouds.


Looking up at the birds.



"Mama, please take the picture now..I can't sit on this bench much longer!"



Powerful waves.


She is posing for the picture! I said, "Beli, Mama is going to take a picture" and she froze and smiled at me.............
