Monday Morning Motivator & Some Points to Ponder...

I believed and I still believe that every moment is there to be savored and to be improved upon and invested with humor and with beauty and solemnity. We don't ever get to skip a single part and sort of fast forward to the life still to come.
~~ Garrison Keillor

(not so) Speechless Sunday...

What is it about a waterfall? Whether it be a raging torrent or a mere trickle meandering through its predestined path, there is something about the sight and sound of a waterfall that enamors us.

To me, it is a quiet respite of solitude. A place to reflect and admire in complete wonderment the beautiful, awe inspiring tapestry that only the Creator can so masterfully paint...


Have a peaceful Sunday, y'all...

The Cool Springs area of Franklin, TN, is an area that has grown rapidly over the past few years. Not too long ago, it was a wide spot in the road off I-65. An exit to get gas or change a tire on your way to Nashville.

The tree filled hills, and farms that dotted this area have been replaced by homes and commerce.

A little known reprise in the daily rush, is this place on Carothers Pkwy. A place often overlooked as folks rush to and fro☺☺☺

Time is fun, when you are eating flies ~ or so the adage goes. If you listen to the Time is funtalking heads on the tube, one would think we're on the eve of destruction. No wonder they have such a somber look when reporting. Maybe they need to have fun and eat a fly.

Folks seem to be in such a hurry nowadays. Rushing to get here. Gotta get the kids off to shool. Gotta get these reports out. Gotta meet this deadline. Gotta, gotta, gotta. Maybe you need to slow down. Have fun. Eat a fly.

Far too many folks are stuck in dead-end jobs that they do not like. Marking time. Punch in, punch out. Time drones on when you hate what you are doing. Maybe you need to move on. Have fun. Eat a fly.

So you kiss a few toads! Big deal. Warts heal. What do you think that lip-balm is for?Kissing a toad Sadly, there is no balm for the tired, weary, defeated soul. Except! Blap! Flick out that tongue. Have fun. Eat a fly.

Time is fun, when you are following your passions. Passion and the generated enthusiasm is contagious. Folks around you feel it, they embrace it. Have fun. Eat a fly.

I have never eaten a fly, you say. Have you ever tried them? Once you get past the "crunch" they're not as bad as you think. C'mon now. Have fun. Eat a fly ☺☺☺

(not so) Wordless Wednesday...

Brentwood, TN, is one of those communities that is a blend of residential, commercial office, parks and country. Just off Franklin Rd and across from several high end subdivisions, lies the Turner and Oman farms.

Youth is wasted on the young...

I can remember laying on the cool evening grass, looking at the full moon through the leaves of the large pecan tree in the side yard of my south GA home - contemplating.  This was my favorite spot at the end of a long day of chores on the farm. My sanctuary of solitude - my safe place to let the cares of the day go and thoughts of tomorrow begin.

In the eyes of a child, time seems to just dawdle. Gosh, can't wait till tomorrow. Can't wait to get out of grade school. Can't wait to get out of high school. Can't wait to get out of college. Can't wait...

It has been said by folks much wiser than me, youth is wasted on the young. Today, as I cross the threshold and look forward towards another decade on this spinning orb, I realize truer words were never spoken. Like Superman, I was indestructible. At 16, I was smarter than Einstein. At 21, I forgot all I knew. In this journey, I broke a lot of hearts. I had my heart broken.

It has been said, that when, you die, your whole life flashes before your eyes. I really don't know about that - not ready to experience that one. Way too much music left in me to do the Vaudeville Shuffle.

Half my life is now over. In my mind, I often go back to those cool summer evenings under the pecan tree and contemplate. Safe in my sanctuary of solitude, I let the cares of the day go and contemplate on the importance of today, tomorrow, family and friends.

With all the excitement of my younger days, I can't wait. Can't wait to see what present this new day will bring. Presents of presence. Can't wait to see what I will be unwrapping today ☺☺☺

Monday Morning Motivator & Some Points to Ponder...

"People become really quite remarkable when they start thinking that they can do things. When they believe in themselves they have the first secret of success."

~ Norman Vincent Peale


When faced with obstacles I can easily come up with several reasons why I cannot succeed. I can't. It's too hard. It will take a lot of work. Why bother? Folks won't buy into it anyway...
Today, I will shed my old cloak of disbelief's. I know that I can succeed IF I believe that  I can ☺☺☺

I have one of those inquiring minds. As we all know, last night was Halloween, and like any good trick-'r-treater, I went out and made out like a bandito. So my question? Will eating all that candy make me "a blimpo" and make my butt look fat?

Y'all have a great relaxing Sunday. ☺☺☺
