Beautiful Sunday, Sublimely so with a Liittle Coloring of my World

in #beautifulsunday5 years ago (edited)


I woke up to the light of the day, the soft dew and gentle rain, having watered the earth, making it push forth and bud. Happy Sunday — at letting the sunshine in

There was such a beautiful gentleness about the morning, the light was soft, the sky almost gray. Until it broke out into a fit of sunshine. I welcome it with unfettered joy, leading me into the open arms of another day. Oh, lead me into temptation, quieting my mind, leading me astray. There is life to be lived. Today.



The only way on earth to multiply happiness is to divide it -Paul Scherer


In a perfect dance with the rhythm of life, we grow and feel encouraged by those around us— at the observation deck of life. The day absolutely belongs to @c0ff33a and his #SublimeSunday. Where you can post your random thoughts and dreams between the lines of steem. I thank him in advance for this opportunity to throw caution to the wind and let it flow. And today, my @c0ff33a, that makes you my hero.

Life is so much better with friendship and love in it. It doesn't even have to be another person. It can be the love of nature, love of running, love of art, love of life. Embrace it, whatever you love.





Flowers. There must always be flowers. This picture is dedicated to #PurpleSunday #ColorChallenge by @Kalemandra who colors my every single day. Let's see your colors!

Seems like we all have some budding skills and dying talents — at the field of life and living

This happened to be a #BeautifulSunday by @Ace108 where you share your day and what you did. I share with you the part where I went through the garden weeding and feeding it, then spent the day with friends, and family celebrating a birthday. So, I am thinking back on my day and the beauty I saw.


Oh, the allure of all things lovely. Nature wears such a happy face, always and forever.



Happy are those that rain sunshine down upon another —And yes, you are my sunshine - living at the corner of happiness and sunshine


And just like that, these words are done. I had a most wonderful day and I hope this will be the start of an awesome week! So cast your hooks out to reel in some sunshine and happiness! You know you want to! Have a fabulous day!




You know I will love you until the end of time. I don't think I can ever express that enough. Ever. Ever. Ever. Hug a friend today... and another... and another and another.


I am sure that everyone is a veteran of blowing bubbles. It is remarkable that something so simple can bring so much happiness - to so many people. It doesn't discriminate against sex, race or religion. There are streams of laughter; people have fun blowing bubbles and trying to catch them.

Be back in a few. Off to capture the joy!!!

Let the sun shine in on your life
So the joy may touch your soul

I always post this poem down at the bottom of my posts. It is one that has become so near and dear to my heart. I only post the most famous part of it, but, wanted to post it in its entirety today.

they set my aunts house on fire
i cried the way women on tv do
folding at the middle
like a five pound note.
i called the boy who use to love me
tried to ‘okay’ my voice
i said hello
he said warsan, what’s wrong, what’s happened?

i’ve been praying,
and these are what my prayers look like;
dear god
i come from two countries
one is thirsty
the other is on fire
both need water.

later that night
i held an atlas in my lap
ran my fingers across the whole world
and whispered,
"where does it hurt?"
it answered,

"everywhere"
"everywhere"
"everywhere"

Wow what a lovely day and what a lovely post! Just jam packed with flowers and happiness! AMAZING! Hey just think, it is the perfect week to have a perfect week!!!

I'm trying to figure out if you are serious or if you are mocking me. Either way, it was a lovely day, even if I didn't outline it here, without proper time so I went with the obvious flowers.

And yes. to be honest, it is alwas a perfect day to have a perfect day... one day at a time. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. ;)

!tip

Mocking writers in the comment section is not my style. That is basically called trolling. Rather, I am uplifting and complementary, as I meant to be here.

One day at a time is good advice and I hope your day is pleasant :)

Well, there you go. I misjudged your intentions. Of course, that wouldn't be the first time. I apologize and hope you have a pleasant day as well.

My intentions have always been meant to be positive and good towards you. If you feel I slighted you in some way, I would certainly like to make it right. Perhaps I kibitzed too much.

Pfft... You are fine. Carry on.

You are SO not my boss!!! :D

Ahhhhh....you always warm up my day i couldn't have said it better myself i am going out to hug a few friends...lol...have a great week :)

Hehe! What a nice thing to say! Thank you. Hugging is best. Totally. :)

Indeed my friend :)

I am so glad you agree. ;)

Oh, what I wouldn't give for a touch of gentle rain at the moment... it is way too hot here in Europe! Just looking at the first photo does give me a sense of coolness though...

Oh, the rain was divine last night and set a blanket of cool over the landscape. It was incredibly beautiful today and I am hoping for another reprieve tomorrow.

I want to thank you for stopping by to say hello and leave your words behind. Perhaps I can work it out to see you get another Rally tonight? :) OMG. I cannot believe I did that to you!

As always, have a fabulous day!

Thank you! Believe it or not, that is honeysuckle. Hehe. I know, I got so close you cannot recognize it.

The words you describe are so touching and wonderful. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to answer all of your comments. I know the effort because of #MarketFriday! Oh, I was taught that if it takes five days, you should be grateful.

Although who knew it would take a week to do them? Not me!!!

Thanks, @c0ff33a You rock!

You are an example of how to move from quantity to quality. Your posts are becoming more and more clean and clear of everything that is extra. Refinement ... stupid is the one who doesn't learn from you.

Thank you, Dan! @bluemoon Oh, you know I still have the extra in here, but, spending more time doing less was really getting me down. Thinking less about it and enjoying it more is the way to go.

When the fun leaves, I know it is time to change or leave. One or the other. ;) I hope you are having a most wonderful day!

!tip

Thank you. I hope every day to be beautiful, to find something to be part of what we call "Life is wonderful!"
I hope you will not leave...

I would not ever leave while there is fun to be had. If it should ever become a job, I would leave in a New York minute.

But, all is well here.

I'm glad to hear, thank you!

Oh, Miss Trudee! @trudeehunter How have you been? I think I have had my head stuck in the sand somewhere, not posting as I did and just feeling like I am spitting into the wind. Your comment just gave me a wakeup call, showing me I am not getting around to see people and I apologize for that. I hope all is well with you and as always, I wish you a most wonderful week.

Have you gone to Palnet?

Hey.......absolutely no apologies necessary Denise. I've been hit and miss myself lately with such a lot happening outside of steemit. I'm looking at the palnet thingy but need to do some more reading on it. It is on my 'To Do'List. 😊

You will want to do the PalNet thing. Especially get in on the AirDrop that gives you voting power right away. It's a really cool thing! Doesn't cost a dime to sign up!

Such a delightful post, Denise. truly pleasurable. You got some really beautiful shots, a real treat for the eyes.

We are a big bubble blowing household. My son keeps a collection of different colored bubble bottles:)

We are too! :) There is something so carefree and wonderful about blowing them into the wind and watching them float off into the wild blue yonder.

Thank you for the words, they are always so sweet and kind. What is to not love about flowers, right? When in doubt, post a flower. That is my motto and I am sticking to it!~ :)

I hope you are enjoying such a beautiful day, it promises to behave and give us more sunshine!

!tip

You have totally converted me to your way of thinking. Besides flowers are so cooperative. They seem to want to show their beauty:)

They are! They must be female. ;)

Maybe ... I think they might be both:)

Of course, they are. It was more fun to say it though. LOL

Posted using Partiko Android

Oh, Nick! @nickyhavey Every day I am vertical I consider a plus! My great grandfather used to say that! LOL When I graduated from college, I adopted it as I watched so many of my acquaintances meet an early demise. So, I love life and never take a day for granted and never, ever lose the wonder of it all.

I hope you are having the time of your life! Thanks for stopping by!

!tip

Haha I love that saying too! It's true though, you never know when your time could be up. In one of my songs, the words are "don't take for granted that you'll live another day". So live in the now hey 🙂

I've had an amazing experience and traveling has taught me many things, living in the present is one of them. Thank you @dswigle 🙏

Posted using Partiko Android

That is the most sage advice I would give anyone! I am hoping to start planning a get away from life trip here soon. :)

I am so glad you are doing this now. I did it right after school and did it for almost a year. I wouldn't trade if for anything! Enjoy! You will never be your age again! :) NO matter what they tell you!

Ah awesome, where have you got in mind to go to??

Yes I have come to realise that I missed out on travelling from 21-27 due to my PhD but making up for lost time from 27-32 now 🙂 I may have spent almost all my money but I feel richer for it

Posted using Partiko Android

You didn't miss out. I went after I finished school, which took me until I was almost 25, so, yeah... I spent every penny I had and then have spent the next ten years traveling the world, with work, but, now I am taking time off again because I can. And No!! You won't feel the same at 57 as you do at 27 like they keep saying to me.

Better to do this whilst you're young and have energy to move around although there's plenty of ways to travel comfortably without breaking the budget or your body!

Wow you travel the world for work? What do you do?

That's why I went on this adventure as I could do it and had the time/money to sustain it for 2.5 months. Now I need to earn again as steem isn't quite cutting it yet! 5 years time 🙂

I don't feel the same at 32 vs 22 so I believe you on that too haha

Posted using Partiko Android

Money isn't everything. These moments, you will never get back and I hope that you are having the time of your life. I have become financially secure, but, there are things along the way that I have had to sacrifice.

Fun wasn't one of them though. :)

I haven't nailed down where we are going. Three years ago was the Nepal trip and Four years ago, India... and one of my parents got really ill and I had to ditch and come home...I personally wanted to do Machu Picchu as I am the only one who has been there and that is a worthy trip, but, we will get all the votes in the next month. :)

No it isn't everything but it does make a big difference if you have it. It buys you comfort I guess. Yes I know what you mean by sacrificing things. I don't spend what I don't need to (for the most part). I have a mega (and beautifully constructed if I do say so myself) spreadsheet which helps me keep on track with all my finances. Really helped me manage my budget for this adventure. I'm 100% certain I'd have spent everything well before the end of this trip if it wasn't for it!

I've not ventured to any of those places but Machu Picchu is a place I'd like to visit for sure. Appeals to the hiker in me 🙂

Just sitting here at the corner of happiness and sunshine enjoying your flowers but the shadows making a swan heart was our favorite.

Oh, that was one of my favorites too! There is something so beautiful about being able to make a heart together with another person. Like love itself.
