Diary of the journey on the path least traveled..
(Quietly sharing thoughts while exploring the world and the universe (no nominations please)….
“I have chosen to take the path leas traveled and it has made all the difference”…
“I do not do or say something to be proud of myself, I just do or say something because it needed to be done or said…” Larry Woller 5-6-2018
“The one who follows the crowd will usually get no further than the crowd. The one who walks alone, is likely to find himself in places no one has ever been.” Albert Einstein
“Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past and present are certain to miss the future.” John F. Kennedy
Hello Diary,
It’s a Saturday afternoon, chores and tasks taken care of and thought I would pop in and leave a few thoughts… may have some rain and storms later but nothing severe… and speaking of storms, took a picture of a prairie thunderstorm that occurred earlier this week…
They have a tendency to pop up on short notice with the hot and humid summer like air…luckily no damage was done with this one…ventured to the grocery yesterday and while shopping came across these little plants on the clearance shelf…
No doubt they were a couple of days from being thrown in the trash… those little plants suffer the same fate as the grackle sitting on the bird bath…
They are not accepted by society because they do not meet the expectations of society, they are different and being what they wish to be…so therefore basically ignored and left to their own devices… but not here on the path least traveled as the grackle can live “its” life and I will put the little flowers in my “secret garden”…
My secret garden is the area where I paint and color… the garden consists of plants that no one wants…like all else, they have a place… 🙂 and speaking of coloring, that is a good way to relax and contemplate all the tomorrows, something like meditation (which I do also)… I do not use crayons but artist colored pencils…
Of course the picture is just a picture so one can use ones imagination and create their own Picasso (or in my case NOT… 🙂 )..
So, on a Sunday afternoon I get a glass of Red Rose wine, turn on some easy listening romantic music…
Go to my secret garden and with a mind at peace and a spirit free, I create my masterpiece while contemplating my destiny.. 🙂
Destiny sits upon the morning horizon
Always in site, but never clear
And as I travel along the road I have chosen
Destiny remains forever in place
Sitting upon the morning horizon
But as the years pass
And the road spans the distance
Between yesterday and tomorrow
I know my destiny will arrive
For time alone will close the gap
So yesterday becomes dust filled memories
And the horizon of tomorrow
Will be the road of today
For then, there will be no yesterday or tomorrow, only today
And when that day arrives
I will find peace and be complete
For I will be one with my destiny
(Favi F)
Well, I had better close for now and venture on down the path..life is out there calling me and I had best go see what it wants and has in store for me… 🙂 but I shall return again one day, Fate willin’ and the creeks don’t rise…
What, me worry??.. 🙂
I totally agree that creating your own destiny is vital in moving forward, following the crowd is a big fail. Your Saturday evening seemed very chilled and I’m glad you share some of you life moment with us. Great blog keep them coming, and have a bless day.
