MOTHER AND BABIES



ADJUSTMENTS


When things change in our lives, even a tiny bit, we have to ADJUST to the new situation, do we not? You can well imagine how this mama duck had to ADJUST to having such a large family, but I'm very sure she did! Any change can be daunting or it can be pleasant and smooth running. My recent change in moving to a different apartment was the latter and I'm most grateful for the easy transition. I like my apartment and the setting better than the previous one! Fancy that?

Since my move and my 'settling in', I have experienced some amazing changes. Quite by a unexpected chance, I have been able to change my health insurance and my doctor to much more to my advantage! I'm thrilled! I'm also meeting more people and finding my situation more pleasant than before. My houseplants are growing more vigorously than before and with less light coming in! Amazing!

I have been wanting these changes in my life for some time but I wasn't diligently hoping and praying for them. This has all been a subconscious endeavor and all very do-able and smooth. I have had some ADJUSTING to do but after 3 weeks, I feel at home and all is familiar to me now, the mirror image dance is falling into place!

There are 2 ways we can go into ADJUSTING to anything . . . we can go into a change in resistance or acceptance! I chose the latter because I was ready for a change and I was taking my chances it would be for the better and it was! As a matter of fact, I realized that every move I have ever made was always a better one, much to my surprise!

Once I'm in a new situation, I immediately look for ways to arrange things to the most advantage for my comfort, safety, beauty and convenience. It's always an opportunity to weed-out belongings and treat myself to something new! I'm not extravagant but practical and thrifty, making sure I really like it! For me it's like 'playing house'.

Being creative never ends, no matter how old we get or where we end up! It's the only way to stay fresh and happy within ourselves!


Treating ourselves to 'new'

Indulging in freshness

Appreciating what we have!

PLEASURES BLEEDING HEART When I look around the VILLAGE, I find more and more scenes, activities, support and people that give me PLEASURE. It’s so easy for me to experience new aspects of my life at the Village. So much is available here and I’m open to more adventures everyday. There are several activities I want to try. One PLEASURE I have done is watercolor painting and I intend to do more of that. The activities I enjoy every week are exercise classes, swimming, gardening, meeting new people, writing my blog, teaching classes, my garden and generally enjoying each day to see what comes up. Every night when I get into bed at night I give thanks for a most rewarding and surprising day!  Remember, you can rotate activities, or stagger them and you can rest whenever you want to! I love this new attitude I have adopted because I no longer fret and plan each day to the fullest. I derive much more satisfaction from being free and spontaneous a great deal of the time.

Easter Lily RISING We all know the feeling of RISING; An uplift, an awakening, an experience of   a breakthrough and the opening of the heart. Even thinking about the sun RISING can be an uplift. It is also the Phoenix RISING out of the ashes. That is such a powerful image for me. I have just experienced a RISING, a huge avalanche of experiences that have been profound. My daughter and her fiancé visited me that was wonderful. It was a sort of mission that we were all on that was truly amazing.   I also sold my car to a very lovely woman that appreciates it and it was so effortless! As I was about to leave an appointment Friday, the power went out from the storm. I could not access the Village to come get me, nor Uber. I met a woman who was so wonderfully friendly and kind and offered me a ride back to the Village. I was stunned. We talked like we had known each other for years. We had lunch and have become friends. Again effortless. Somewhere in the mix, I had

DELIGHT This is one of my favorite words! The sight of it, the sound of it and the meaning of DELIGHT . . . DELIGHTS ME. I begin my day by opening my blinds and looking out to the trees and the lake, every morning! Then I see the ducks waddling about and the magnificent egret(s) prancing around. Lately I’ve watched the Whistling ducks, I saw a mama, daddy and 3, yes 3 tiny babies running then swimming together! Such a DELIGHT! More and more I am enamored with NATURE. I can always fine something that makes me NOTICE something that is present that perhaps I never NOTICED before. Sometimes it is as simple as a limb on an old oak tree, or the markings on the Muscovy ducks. A DELIGHT is more than just in Nature. I have recently had a few conversations with people that were completely DELIGHTFUL! It makes me feel so uplifted and grateful to know them and share in some special conversations. It stays with me for a long time. The key for me is to listen to them
