Harold and Maude

This is just the sweetest movie, filled with great advice and beautiful bits and bobs

When I grow up I hope to be as wise as Maude

Fynbos

One of my favourite things about living in eKhapa is the flora that happens upon my path

Just beautiful!

Gratefulness

This weekend I met some wonderful people; the universe telling me its OK.

And one of them, the granddaughter of a very special man told me to be grateful.

So...... thank you for what I have..... I will try to be better at being patient.

Compassion

So.....

Everyone has their own perceptions and ways of veiwing and responding to the world. It is not always easy and sometimes I wonder how we communicate to each other at all, yet we do, we have friends and lovers, people who will see the same situation differently and somehow we make it work

I think this is because we are able to have compassion for one another and if we can extend that compassion outside of our familiar circle

Well, we might just be on to something......

The life lessons I have been dealing with over the last two weeks:

You can advise your friends but they may neither appreciate it or do anything about it

I need to define my boundaries - first I must figure out what they are

This leads to more questions but I will force my wandering mind to stay put and deal with these things first, one small step in front of the next, slowly..... steadily..... surely
