Stamina & Strength

I was going through one of my books
of quotes and I came across this one
and it just hit some heart strings in me
for many reasons.

by Oswald Chambers

" We are not made for the mountains,
for sunrises or the other beautiful
attractions in life, those are simply
intended to be moments of inspiration.
we are made for the valley and the
ordinary things in life and that is where we have to prove our stamina
and strength"

A Sunday Ponder

" The way to Heaven has no favorites
It is always with the good Man."
Lao Tzu



I love the works of Lao Tzu

Wind Chimes

I have certain things that I am fond
of collecting I won't list all of them
cause there are to many but I am
very fond of wind chimes.

The cow one was a gift to me hand made from my husbands great aunt
in Oklahoma, the small one behind it
was a parting favor from a wedding
on it are dragon flies.






In this photo I love old looking clay pots and found this treasure at a outdoor swap meet in southern Ca
where I bought two of them.

I also have a special angel one that I
keep in doors and a few others

I like hearing the music they make
when the wind blows. it some how gives me a heartfelt sound they sing

and what beautiful music it is to hear.

The Sun Will Set For You

And the shadow of the day
will embrace the
world in grey
and the sun will
set for you.
