"We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls" ~Mother Teresa

Through the Looking Glass


SoMetiMes it's a good tHiNg to slow down in life. It helps us realize the iMpoRtaNcs of developing other skills. Nourishing our body aNd miNd in ways that allow us to discover new tHiNgs in life. Of course there will be tiMes where we feel like we aRe living in between the liNes but it's those tiMes that allow us to evolve in ways that we have never iMagiNed. Gaining new insight aNd taking with us the tiMes of hardship aNd tuRniNg tHeM into beautiful learning experiences aNd courage to face our next chapter in life.
To not be willing to appreciate or learn fRoM struggles would be to essentially starve the soul in reaching it's highest potential of self~discovery in loving ourselves truly.

BlessiNgs of MotHeR NatuRe


I gaze into the sky aNd watch the clouds float by, following down to the tips of the evergreens. What a beautiful canvas God has cReAted. Living aRt that is forever evolving aNd cHaNgiNg. Breathtaking aRe the colors before my eyes. Beauty that cannot be put into woRds but rather spoken silently for the soul to hear. I am grateful for the suns warmth glistening upon the snow covered meadow. I am grateful he allows me to see with my heart the gifts that he has given to me. ~poeticgarden.com

Publication News



As I transitioned into a new learning experience on life, I felt at the tiMe that faiRytaLes was a suitable naMe for the second liNe. However I found myself a bit cHalleNged over this. So I researched the definition faiRytaLes and this is what I discovered…

faiRytaLe

American Heritage Dictionary (2 definitions)
–noun
1. A fanciful tale of legendary deeds and creatures, usually intended for children.
2. A fictitious, highly fanciful story or explanation.
Century Dictionary (2 definitions)
–noun
1. A tale or story about fairies.
2. A story as unreal and as incredible in its statements as fairies or tales about them.
Wiktionary (1 definition)
–noun
1. A folktale featuring fairies or similar fantasy characters.

Reading that faiRytaLes aRe coNsideRed unreal and listening to what my heart was trying to tell me. I knew that I could not continue this cReAtive jourNey by giving the new discovery within my miNd the naMe faiRytaLe and go against what I know to be true and real. So before I continue moving forward in my deSigNs, I will be staying with the oRigiNal naMe and issue nuMbeRs of each art piece. The newest piece ‘Snow faiRies’ will be deSigN #152 and will continue to be recognized as Life’s JourNey by Poeticgarden.com as this represents my tRue belief that “In order to Live you must be dReAmiNg.”

Impression

deSigN #152 'Snow faiRies'





deSigN #152 'Snow faiRies'
Quiet aRe the woNdeRs that aRe hidden. Delicate wHispeRs of the earth beckon her to return. Hidden beneath the blaNket of snow appears a woRld that is not often seen but heard within the soul. Touching dew dRops on the tips of her toes as she floats ever so geNtly like a butterfly. Catching the nectar breeze beneath her wiNgs, gaziNg across the waRm meadow. SileNtly captuRiNg the beauty that lies within her dReAms.

BlessiNgs of MotHeR NatuRe


Weak am I to appear before it's gloRy, stReNgth in nuMber with such elegance aNd grace is she to present herself. StaNdiNg tall before the canvas of blue not to waiver in the slightest wiNd. Powerful in ways that aRe never heard by the naked ear yet felt within the soul. Protecting asking notHiNg in return but that of love, compassion aNd humility.
Taking hold feeliNg it's powerful wisdom through out tiMe. Her majesty towers above in seeking to be free. Presenting herself as the valley of trees. ~poeticgarden.com

deSigN #151 'tRue Love'




I use to take laRge strides aNd walk ahead. Now I walk beHiNd aNd view life aNd tRuly live. I tHiNk each moMeNt out aNd poNdeR on the day, fiNdiNg that my jourNey does not require much but oNly that of loving myself in every way.
fRoM the beauty that resides in my miNd, discovering the woNdeRs that no oNe else can fiNd. Uniquely deSigNed like notHiNg known, no oNe peRsoN can have what I own. Humility aNd Grace to my soul never to be seen, eNduRaNce to love unconditionally within me.
