It has been said that everything within its time will be a shade of beautiful. Some things in life just can’t be rushed; there is no clock keeping time, it will be, when it's ready... beautiful in its own time. Oh, but I shall become acquainted with the new delight of each day! Be the person who plants those seeds of kindness, random acts, and beautiful gestures, allowing your heart to become pliable and soften. It is difficult to not notice the widespread hate that is circling our globe and it is in our best interest to load up the scales to tip our way. Hate is such an everyday occurrence, but, I cannot think of a more powerful emotion than love, can you? It reaches farther into the soul than any other sentiment. Live out loud. Love out loud. The more you love, the more of it you will have to give – what a paradox.
Take a moment of peace, quiet your soul, then, open wide and let the sunshine in. This melody of life brings joy to my heart, now and again. Now and again.
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you: not as the world gives, give I to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 14:27
Oh, even the sunshine is waiting, in hiding, to burst out loud, enlightening the leaves on the trees and the flowers beneath my feet. I had that familiar certainty that life was waiting for summer to come back, to begin living again. I can see it, if I close my eyes.
“I know I am but summer to your heart, and not the full four seasons of the year.”

The day belongs to my two guys, @c0ff33a, and his #SublimeSunday. Where you can post your random thoughts and dreams between the lines. I thank him in advance for this opportunity to throw caution to the wind and let it flow. Definitely a #SublimeSunday in the making, by the Meister of my morning, @c0ff33a. I do love my @c0ff33a and he likes eclectic! A match made in heaven. And @Ace108? #BeautifulSunday is hosted by @Ace108. You post what your Sunday is like, what you did, and where you went. It just wouldn't be Sunday without it!
May you stumble upon some happiness and sunshine today. Who can resist the gentle breeze of the day, blowing through the loose ends of your hair? My day was steeped in thought, is that really allowed to be my day? Well, it is what I did, so I am guessing it has to count. You should have asked me on Saturday, my day was filled. Because it was so busy, I had a definitely quieter day. I'm thinking I liked it enough to do one of those again. Who's in? Do you need activity on your time off, or are you good with a day of quietness? There is no wrong answer.
That odd time of year when it is summer one day and autumn the next. Reach out and color me Fall. Whichever weather it decides is the one we will go with that day. Divine. Flowers. Always. To color my world. #alwaysaflower
Pure. Joy. Affection. Caring. Sharing. Inspiring. Sweetness. Warm. Tenderness. Fun. The eternal love of a mother. My heart feels wrapped in love and tied with a bow of hugs. Just for today: Mums the word. ❤️

Today my mother was on my mind. No reason, and then again, every reason. I got down on my knees and prayed last night, in my mothers name. She is gone, but, she will never be truly gone. She will live forever in my heart. And no, I am not depressed today, just letting my thoughts go.
Through the eyes of a pony horse. They can see different things out of each eye. Monocular vision. They also can focus on one object with both eyes. Little known fact that you didn't know you might need. Or not. But, now you do. You are welcome.
All I have are my words, armed in my mind, written in pen, stand by stand. Oh, yes. Still by hand. It has a different feel. Altered not by keys, backspace, and delete, I write, erase, tear it to pieces and start all over again. And again.
It’s my way. I walk out to the deep end of the page and dive right in.
Never forget the joy in what you’re doing, even the simplest things, making the most of every experience, making all of your moments count for something. As always, keep on singing that song!! And just like that, this post is done. Thank you for stopping by and saying hello, leaving your words behind...I want to thank @ace108 and @c0ff33a for hosting these wonderful challenges! And just so you know, although much sun and shine were used up today, I can guarantee that there is still a little left in my heart. Have a most fabulous day! Hive on! That never gets old!
The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

I, and a few (or many) other people believe that there is something good in everyone. And this is why Jesus and God forgive everyone. There is something good in everyone. Even in those, who seemingly "full of hate". To Jesus, these people are "lost sheep".
Sooner or later we will all return home, and Jesus and God takes (removes) all the bad things. We will have only good things in the paradise/heaven. For eternity. And as Jesus and God forgive everyone, I also forgive everyone. No matter how many and how much bad things they did.
Everyone wants and and everyone need love. And everyone will have love and peace. If not in this world, then in the other (in heaven).
And there will be explanation for everything in the end. Including for all the hate in this world. There is a reason for everything. Including why we are on this Earth. I believe that we are on this Earth by our own free will. By our own choice. To experience. To experiment. To test. To learn. To improve.
Have a nice day and have a nice weekend.
All the best. Greetings and much love from Hungary.
Just because there is a lot of hate in the world doesn't mean those people are not capable of love, they just choose it separately. I have to think that those that commit horrid crimes against humanity still have a loving family (or at least as much as they are capable) who don't see them the same as others do.
That is all. Nothing more or less and I am not saying there isn't a God, heaven or hell, or judgment day.
In my opinion, there is nothing paradoxical about love. The essence of love is giving. You will receive as much as you give.
Just like the love of a mother who always gives everything for the people she loves, and a mother always does it with all her soul, right?
So we should repay all the love of a mother even though she has passed away. The best gift after a mother is gone is to pray for her and continue all the kindness and love she gave. As you have done,
Your posts are always filled with love, Mrs. @dswigle. I'm always happy to get your posts.
Yes, since the first paragraph, your writing has moved the hearts of those who read it. Yes, someone should also read it with their hearts.
Have a nice day.
Thank you so much. What a kind and thoughtful comment that is. You are right.
I cannot think of a better one!
Have a great week ahead!
Love has no barriers, take a moment, enjoy life around, conflict is all man made, smile, relish positive emotions.
Embracing thoughts of Mom, the day brings new joy, we never forget the comforting feeling of tenderness when we look deep within.
Have a wonderful day with !LUV

Thank you so much, Joan. I believe you have your thumb on the pulse there. ❤️ That comforting feeling of tenderness is still with me, even after this time has passed.
You are so right and I want to thank you for always being such a warm and wonderful part of Hive.
Thank you! I did indeed not know that. No horsing around!
Some racehorses are staying in a stable. One of them starts to boast about his track record. “In the last 15 races, I’ve won eight of them!”
Another horse breaks in: “Well in the last 27 races, I’ve won 19!”
“Oh that’s good, but in the last 36 races, I’ve won 28!” says another.
At this point, the horses notice a greyhound, who has been sitting there listening. “I don’t mean to boast,” says the greyhound, “but in my last 90 races, I’ve won 88 of them!”
The horses are clearly amazed. “Wow!” says one, after a hushed silence. “A talking dog!” source
What a lovely read for a Sunday morning, hope you have a glorious day across the waters Denise.
Cherish those memories of your dear Mom, I've been remembering some of the fun moments and how my Mom used to make us laugh with her dry humour😍
Thank you for bringing sunshine into my heart ❤
Thank you, lovely Lizelle! @lizelle It was a lovely day yesterday, flipping over to the summertime again. Today, a little cooler. Such a wonderful time of year, giving us both seasons for a spell.
Moms are forever. ❤️ Thank you, thank you. You have a way of making everything seem alright. xo
We're enjoying the sudden changes in the weather, once summer sets in with its hot & humid days & nights, we'll long for winter.
Moms certainly are forever Denise, always in our hearts 💕
XOXO
This is the first time I read a post and my thought went to a song.
I don't think the message of the song has anything to do with your message, but it got me thinking about the end of the song.
"Too much love will kill you in the end"
You do know that Pavarotti, as well as Bocelli, are some of my favorite opera people? When they cross over, I think they are even more magnificent! Is that even possible?
I love the collaborations they have done.
Thank you so much! I just love your comments!
Thanks, @dswigle! I have to admit, I knew these were some of your favorite singers and I'm glad you enjoyed listening to them again.
Hehe! Well, then thank you for humoring me! :)
Always my pleasure!
I cannot help checking out what it saw.
Haha! I thought about it and decided not to look! LOL
Hello! Hello!
Happy #BeautifulSudnay!
I have a book with that title on my bookshelf. Haha close to it anyway - "Stumbling on Happiness." It's about the psychology of happiness lol. I recall it being interesting but it was a long time ago since I read it.
Now, of course, you have me wondering what made the book interesting. Perhaps it is time to revisit it again!
Always a pleasure to see your smiling personality.
Have a great week ahead!
Oh how I love your Fall colours. What a wonderful time of year. Those vibrant colours......
Hello! Hello @buckaroobaby !! It is always good to see you! The colors are vibrant, but, so much more to come! Going to the mountains this week to hopefully see more!! We are just starting to change over, but, summer just left us not even a week ago!
Oh have a wonderful time! Ocean is always my first choice for a getaway....but, mountains is a close second
Hi Denise.
Absolutely, being able to open ourselves up to love and a moment of beauty is enough to make the day wonderful. I hope you are having an awesome weekend!
It isa perfectly wonderful weekend, having all the elements that make it so. The sun is shining. The air is a little crisper, cleaner feeing...change is in the air, even though it changed its mind and it is warm again.
It still feels different.
It truly is a wonderful day. I hope your day is too! ❤️
I'm so glad, it sounds lovely there. It's been a very busy day of work prep stuff and car washing, I'm finally having a short break before having to get back at it, but it's beautiful weather now after a mostly rainy day.
Keep well Denise and have a great week too.
🍁🦋🌿🐾
That makes all the difference in the world. Will do, and make sure you follow the same rules! :)

You are so sweet!! Thank you so much for your words. I hope you are having a wonderful weekend!
Thank you for your warm and wonderful self.
Another beautiful post. And thanks for that little fact. The monocular vision. That's very interesting.
It is different, isn't it? Not many people know that, but, it makes perfect sense when I think about it.
Have a wonderful week ahead!
Yup, happiness will be created when we can withstand the emotions that are born in this life, all deserve to be happy in different ways.
Btw, this landscape is one of happiness for someone out there, including me.
Thank you so much for your words. They are so kind and thoughtful. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Isn't the landscape happy? Yes!
Yeah, that's a lot of fun in my opinion.
Have a wonderful day too sis @dswigle 🥰🥰
