A Mid ~ Week ~ Joy List
a weekly ritual
a reminder to stop and pay attention to the little beauties and graces that make life magical
and to set aside time for gratitude each day
I am so thankful for my garden.
Flowers, vegetables, herbs and the nature that is in the garden. During a week of difficult current events, going out to the garden is where I can find time to rest my mind. It is the place that when I feel lost, I remember I have a Captain guiding me, I just have to TRUST.
Summer evening walks, with the song of summer bugs and the fragrance of fresh cut lawn.
You are a piece of the puzzle of someone else's life. You may never know where you fit, but others will fill the holes in their lives with pieces of you.

Beautiful Carla. Happy New Week. Love all your beautiful flowers. xoxo
ReplyDeleteThe curly frilly yellow flower is gorgeous! What is it, some kind of marigold? Or maybe a mum?
ReplyDeleteHi Carla, these are beautiful photos of your flowers. The garden has always been a peaceful haven for me, too. Have a lovely day.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love this quote, Carla. Your flower pictures are wonderful, along with all the little things that bring you joy. I can see how your garden would bring some stability and peace to your days. We all need some of that during these troubling times.

ReplyDeleteYes, it's the little things that we often don't take time to take notice that brings joy in our hearts when we take the time to appreciate them.
Have a lovely weekend.
