Thy Love

"satisfy us with thy love when morning breaks,
that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days"
Psalms 90-14

our view




Expectant of greater things,
We try climbing -
Higher And Higher;
An effort that costs us much,
Leaving us short of breath
To find only
The ground below is much prettier.
~Phillip Pulfrey, "Mountains"

hoarding.....and more creating

i don't know if any of you have watched the "hoarder"
shows....but i get infatuated with them and just how
things could possibly get that bad. obviously the unclean
conditions are one thing....but i am just talking about the amount
of stuff......and then something came to my attention.... i have photographs everywhere....on walls...in drawers...in closets, tons on the computer....and now i'm adding more to my laptop

if i had to gather them all together, i wouldn't even know where to begin...and to top it off....i belong to pinterest which is a place with thousands of the most beautiful photos of anything you can imagine.....available to whoever wants to look at
them and collect them. and i am collecting at a very fast rate....i think that is when i
officially started realizing that i am a hoarder......of photographs!
love them

and the feeling they evoke
the memories they stir
some because they are from our experiences
and some because they are just magnificent
so.....if i was told i needed to get rid of my pictures
i think i would need some counseling too!







blogger has me going crazy on this post....so will just say the creating was making a beach sign for our dream of living by the beach someday and finally getting our bed fully dressed with a no sew burlap bedskirt! fun.fun. so many DIY tutorials on pinterest....amazing!
i love being creative
i also think its therapeutic, energizing and essential for mental health :-)

well at least mine!
