The picture and quote are lovely. They reminded me that art and living are expressions which are never completed. We are always expressing our self anew just as wonderful artists express themselves and their work anew.

Skeleton Shadows (Tanka)
Perhaps, much of life is moving through shadows and thinking they are more concrete than they really are. It is only when we strip the trees and forests do we experience their essence and ours.
Skeleton shadows
Congregate where man doth tread

617. Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy. ~Anne Frank
The opening quote gives rise to realizing that many people have so little and much is uncertain in their lives. Anne Frank had considerable uncertainty and sought to understand the beauty that existed despite the dire circumstances she lived in. Martin Luther King predicted he might meet a violent end. Living in the present and seeing its beauty is a wondrous place to live.
Life is full of beauty.
Notice it.
Notice the bumble bee, the small child,
and the smiling faces.

Oh, the green, green, green of fresh growing things; the scent, scent, scent of fragrant flowery things; and the buzz, buzz, buzzing of little, busy bees. But wait, wait, wait!

My Favorite Day
We are on a roll this week with Winnie the Pooh, the philosopher. Living in the moment, today, is one way to understand our favourite days.
I love Winnie the Pooh ..

In my life, guilt , regret, resentment, grievances, sadness, bitterness, are caused by too much yesterday and not enough today ..
I think I’m gonna try Poohs attitude..
I’m gonna let today be my favorite day …

I am Grateful
Charlie Brown and Snoopy provide wonderful advice. Dance like no one is watching and express your gratitude in the many ways you can. Just be still and be in this moment where the gift and present of presence exists.

The person who looks back at us is the person we are. The questions in the post are so much better than answers. We can live into the questions as Rilke would say.
Thought for Today
Eager to learn through joy. That is a wonderful sentiment to express to the universe.

“Follow your bliss and don’t be afraid, and doors will open where you didn’t know they were going to be.”
—Joseph Campbell
