A Fog Filled Morning

img_2082

A foggy day, exactly twenty four hours after we got 6 inches of snow!

Melting snow watches,

Empty fog transforms each soul,

A misty blanket

Of warm rain falls, envelopes

Protects, hides and forgives all

My Peace

Windswept angry eyes,

An icy veneer softly

Moves against the tide

Of knowing what was passing

In time through my yesterday

 

My Guitar

Mellow

Sounds flow outward,

Precocious melodies

Bleed through every pore, sadness

Seeping, creeping and weeping its

Way into my conscience,

Into my heart

My soul

 

 

 

Contemplation

Time waits

For no one, cruel

Anticipation, a

Dark mask covers the unknown future,

Waiting, careful contemplation,

Each beat lost forever,

Stolen seconds

Await

 

 

 

December Sunset in NY

A crisp, beautiful early December sunset in Mahopac, NY.

“Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.”

-Rabindranath Tagore

“There’s a sunrise and a sunset every single day, and they’re absolutely free. Don’t miss so many of them.”
― Jo Walton

Relax (1)

As an avid hiker I am on an endless search for places or views that promote my inner peace and give me a chance to relax. I believe this photo speaks for itself!!!!

“Your mind will answer most questions if you learn to relax and wait for the answer.”             William S. Burroughs

Relax

My Friend

My friend

Lies by my side,

Chest rising and falling

In rhythmic madness, eyes shifting

As dreams invade his being, his

Breath reasurring, calm,

Bringing peace to

Us all

 

 

A New Day

Good morning everyone! Yesterday was a nasty morning with some snow and a little wintry mix here in the Hudson Valley of New York, but today is beautiful. A little chill in the air but the sky is blue with some wisps white. It’s a new day! I thought today I would share some of my favorite quotes with you to get you started and to think about the promise that each new day brings. I hope that you enjoy them!

“‎Today is a new day. It’s a day you have never seen before and will never see again. Stop telling yourself the ‘same crap, different day’ lie! How many days has that lie stolen from you? Seize the wonder and uniqueness of today! Recognize that throughout this beautiful day, you have an incredible amount of opportunities to move your life into the direction you want it to go.”

-Steve Maraboli

“Each morning we are born again. What we do today is what matters most.”

-Buddha

“Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future. Concentrate the mind on the present moment.”

-Buddha

“Worrying doesn’t take away tomorrow’s troubles. It takes away today’s peace.”

-Dalai Lama

When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive – to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.”

— Marcus Aurelius

Peace!!!
