Survived ..... the Holidaze

We Survived ...

This time of year we all get a little bit insane....
Thank Goodness we have 363 shopping days left.

Looking forward to new art, net stuff, and some new adventures as the New Years rolls in.

Even hoping for some cooler temperatures, something weird about 70 degree and raining for the entire month of December.

Maybe a little snow, some hot coffee, and walk thru the woods for some inspiration.

Peace, and yup, we all made it thru.... Thank goodness !

Merry Christmas !

 Merry Christmas, 

to 

All 

My 

Friends !

Tis the season for sure, you can see it everywhere. 

It makes me kinda anxious, all I want, is to be kind to the people and creatures as we cross paths this season.

I saw a beautiful Eagle in my yard, just the other day, It's regal power and beauty was breathtaking. 

Why can't we all be an "Eagle", in our own life?  We can 

share beauty and respect along the way. I do not wish for "STUFF" this year. Just the peace and tolerance to get along with others without conflict. That includes, The drivers on the highway, the me first's at the grocery store, the raccoon crossing the country road at night, even the honey bee's that invaded my barn ; )

  

Try to do right thing, what ever it may be. Stop the stress and angst ! Thats all I want for Christmas and the whole year thru. 

-PEACE be with All of You,

Linda 

Holidaze ~

I wrote this little thought last year.... and it still applies, today.

Tis the season... I fondly remember being a little girl, I couldn't wait to put up the "sparklie tree", make cookies, sing the religious Christmas songs ( i was brought up Baptist), turn on the window candles, and twinkle blue outdoor lights too, we did this each night in December.  Those memories were among the best and I still treasure them. 

Somewhere, in this thing called LIFE, those simple pleasures have been replaced with stress, heartache, dread and even grief at times. My wish for all my friends, & foe, is that we may enjoy this time - with a little peace and soften, settle our grown up hardened hearts. A friend this evening sent me a Vimeo, video of "A Hallelujah Christmas" by Cloverton - I smiled and remembered, it is a wonderful & spiritual time of year. ( only if we could remove all the nastyness, rudeness, and expectations)

I normally ignore Halloween, Thanksgiving and even Christmas in hopes to TRY & keep the faith year round without the drama. The holidays, shopping and all the choas make me anxious. This season, I might try to put up a tree, turn on the radio, smile, and recall some beautiful moments... & maybe make some too.... I wish you All PEACE thru what can be the hardest month of the year, December with the expectation of Christmas.

PEACE ~
