SIMPLE

*

*

If it's meant to be

it will be

just say 

OUI 

*

just make life simple

what's it all about

say it in a few words

or just one word

come to the point 

*

a very very GOOD advice 

*

double

*

*

There is something

coming in my mind

more and more 

lately

About 

me

being alone

without a partner

for so long 

I am on my own

since 1992

so that has become

my life .

sometimes people think of me

as lonely

but I do not feel lonely

I kind a like being on myself 

I have got used to being on my own.

and yet 

lately 

I begin to wonder

how it would be 

to have a ....man ....?

oh my .........

YOU DOUBLE YOUR LIFE

WHEN YOU ARE WITH SOME-ONE !

I read this morning 

All of a sudden 

I have this new interest 

I just wonder

what if ?

how....if ....?

*

* * * SWEET * * *

*

Friendship

is

always

a

SWEET

responsibility,

never

an opportunity

KHALIL GIBRAN

*

aujourd'hui dites OUI !

*

*

I realy need

this today .

and

who knows

I could even be 

SURPRISED

when I practice this 

*

I hope 

you have some

really wonderful

SURPRISES

waiting for you

when you try it out

just 

a second before

you are to say NO

out of a habit 

change

the NO into YES

and

I dare you !

to me it will be therapeutic

because I feel like NO

all over 

but hey 

who knows 

YES

is always 

a better idea

*

hearts

*

HEARTS

yours and mine

all over the world

meeting 

here 

*

happy summer

to all of you

*

bloglovin

*

EASY ?

well 

I have been avoiding

all the signs

from Blogger

that CHANGE was coming up

however 

more and more

blogs showed

BLOGLOVIN

in their sidebar

and I

I waited 

and 

POSTPONED

and hey

I am good in postponing .

this morning 

I thought 

I ask google for help

and I asked

HOE WERKT BLOGLOVIN

and there it was 

a you tube movie

from

karin joan
explaining all about bloglovin

Oh how I love 
the internet 

Okay 
I have to admit 
it took me quite some time
and I watched the movie
several times
and 
most of all 
I had to stay 
CALM 
and not give up 
and finally
the tool is on my sidebar

*
That's it for today 
I feel like passing an important examination
I am allowed 
to the next year .....
well 
at least 
I did it all
on my own 

and I cannot believe 
how far I have come !

happy weekend 

*

music and color

*

COLOR

=

VIBRATION

LIKE

MUSIC

Marc Chagall

Summer is here

and 

I love THE LIGHT

everything

looks so much more

HAPPY

*

a little broken

*

HAPPINESS

is

wanting

what 

you 

get

DALE CARNEGIE

*

I know 

it is so much more

 FUN

to read about 

happy things

happy times

I know

I have been 

complaining

overhere

SORRY

for that 

I have to tell you 

In life , I never was a complainer

I should have been

once-in-a-while

so 

sharing with you

is a big step for me

and your comments

mean a lot to  me 

I am trying to find 

BALANCE

and

sharing overhere

helps me to free

what's inside

and has to leave 

so it is a good thing 

I am on my way

and things are 

working out 

for the 

BEST

I am sure

*

happy 

sunshine

weekend

*

* * happy * *

*

why

are 

quite

simple

things

not 

simple

*

when I would be

all on my own

in the middle of 

nowhere

I think 

I would be good in 

see things 

simple

*

but 

I was not alone

with my children

and my fulltime job

being a single mom

surviving

*

so much happening

 things were not simple

*

all has changed

no more children

in my house living

no more job

*

I know

you know

why do I keep 

repeating it

over

 and 

over

 and 

over 

again

*

I think it is 

because I am lost 

and I am realy 

trying to keep on track

and 

in this being lost

I learned a lot about 

myself 

I am realy 

PIGHEADED

and

STUBBORN

I want to do all on myself

on my own

I want to find out myself 

not only find out how

but most of all why ?

so

I do not ask for help

and so I am wandering

a lot 

and I am lost 

a lot 

but I always had

my children to take care of 

and my job to do 

that was something else

but 

in taking care

of ME

well 

I am learning now 

I am trying to

and all is so much more

SIMPLE

than I ever imagened 

*

souls

*

Happy 

weekend

to 

you

and you

all of you 

*

OKAY ......

*

*

okay

I am ready

I will do the whole 

thing

once again.

I am going to 

a neurologist 

That's good 

Because this time 

it's ME who wants to know 

I have to explain 

Before this 

the circumstances

made me follow a path 

and I went to doctors

and specialists

I did all that

because everybody

expected that from me 

Now 

after being at home now

for two and a half years

and getting worse and worse

now

finally

I feel 

responcible

for myself

now I want to know

now I can really say 

this is too hard , too much .

Yeah 

sounds

strange 

I KNOW !

but 

I can be really 

HAPPY 

about this .

*

happy weekend

dear blog friends 

*

and all that you are ......

*

Obstacles

lots and lots of obstacles

on my way .

That is not new

What new is 

is ME 

I am changing 

I am learning

to see different

Something inside of me 

is growing 

No longer a teacher

no longer my children in my house

JUST ME 

no longer taking care

of others lots of others 

but taking care of ME

believe in myself ?

and all that I am ?

is there something INSIDE

of me ?

that is greater

than any obstacle ?

I believe so !

*

miss my wings

*

GRACE

is what picks me up

and lifts my WINGS 

high above 

and 

I FLY !

GRACE 

always conquers !

Be graceful

in everything

in anger

in sadness

in joy

in unkindness

retain

GRACE

with you

C. JoyBell C.

*

I miss my wings 

I cannot do what I would like to 

*

*

I am doing well

I have learned so much 

in the past two years

and I own my life 

now

more than ever 

*

*

that is what I am doing

every day 

I am sad sometimes

for not being able to walk like I used to

for having pain all day 

But I am happy too

because I own my life now

I FEEL now

I learn to let it be .

I miss my wings

but I cherish the memory

*

enjoy your wings 

*

old and new

*

All that is GOLD

does not glitter 

not all those who WANDER

are LOST

The old that is STRONG

does not WITHER

deep ROOTS are not reached

by the FROST

from the ASHES

a FIRE shall be woken

a LIGHT from the shadows

shall spring

RENEWED shall be blade

that was BROKEN

The crownless AGAIN 

shall be KING

J.R.R. Tolkien

*

I am learning

to have patience

Things take time

I have to ask for help more

and OH I am NOT GOOD

at that at all

old things

new things

old habbits

new ways

old points of view

new ones

Making the best of it 

*

what makes me HAPPY

*

LET 

NO 

ONE

EVER

COME

TO

YOU

WITHOUT

LEAVING

a glimps .....

*

A glimps 

of my new garden

Can you see my little

frog-prince

wearing his crown

sitting on his golden ball 

He is now waiting 

on top of the fence

untill there is a place

that suits him more 

The large colander

comes from the hotel

my parents had

long ago 

I love to have 

beautiful thing 

hanging on my fences

That is what I can do

in this stadium of my

garden-make-over 

Have a happy 

weekend

JOURNEY

*

If we are always

arriving and departing

it is also true

that we are 

eternally anchored

one's destination

is never a place

but rather a new way

of looking at things.

Henry Miller

*

a new way 

of looking at things

I never knew

how powerful

that can be

IF

it's your very own

wish and decision.

and not just because

someone else

askes you to 

When did you really

change your way of looking

You do not have to tell me

but it would make me 

very happy if you would

take time

with a cup of tea or coffee

and sit down and 

think about this .

happy thinking 

*

my granddaughter EVA

*

*

*

my new garden

is 

a true gift

of my new life 

The first time

I went in the garden

with Eva

we both were so happy

For her little feet 

the garden is a whole new world

For my eyes

and my heart 

the garden is a PRESENT

beyond dreams

*

swinging from the past into the future

*

Grateful

I am for my new garden.

I am absolutely the worst

in letting go

both THINGS

and THE CONTROL 

And yet

I am learning

and 

SURPRISE

SURPRISE

it is amazing

wonderful things happen

and my new garden

is so wonderful 

This is NOT

my garden 

but my WISH 

I do have lots of space now

new space

so the inspiration

can come !

I could have

something like this

but thanks to my neighbour

my beautiful

very big chestnut tree

is gone

for two years now

time to move on 

and start over .

That's life
