While I was looking out today there came a flying burst of sun, and the little corner became a sudden feast of delicate colour; the rich green of the grass, the foliage of the lime-trees, their brown wrinkled stems, the pale moss on the walls, the bright points of colour in the emblazonries of the window, made a sudden delicate harmony of tints. I had seen the place a hundred times before without ever guessing what a perfect picture it made.What a strange power the perception of beauty is! It seems to ebb and flow like some secret tide, independent alike of health or disease, of joy or sorrow. There are times in our lives when we seem to go singing on our way, and when the beauty of the world sets itself like a quiet harmony to the song we uplift.

We all share beauty.  It strikes us indiscriminately. There is no end to the beauty for the person who is aware. Even the cracks between the sidewalk contain geometric patterns of amazing beauty. If we take pictures of them and blow up the photographs, we realize we walk on beauty every day, even when things seem ugly around us.

Hey Sweetie,

Happy Monday!!!

I hope you had a lovely weekend
I continued to work on my "newer" laptop
I enjoy setting  up computers in the way I like them to be
I just entered the Windows 8 and 10 world
I've been using XP and Vista
Those computer still work
But they are a bit slower
So it is fun to have a faster computer
           
I also enjoyed watching more of the Summer Games
Only one more week to go
And then my boner for football
Will be EPIC 0l0
:  )
        
I wish you a most Beautiful Day

Peace and Love,
AOM

 I invite you to join me now in this short Metta Prayer
Radiating the energy of peace and love out to all living beings

Take a few deep breaths to clear your mind
And focus on the here and now
This present moment

Now
Breathe in
Filling your being with peace and love
As you begin each line, breathe out slowly
Breathing these thoughts into the world
Reading, thinking, and feeling the words with peace and love
Sending them from your heart

Giving the energy to yourself and to all living beings
Breathe in and repeat the process for each line

Namaste
"The Spirit within me salutes the Spirit in you"

Human Family
Poem by Maya Angelou
        
I note the obvious differences
in the human family.
Some of us are serious,
some thrive on comedy.

Some declare their lives are lived
as true profundity,
and others claim they really live
the real reality.

The variety of our skin tones
can confuse, bemuse, delight,
brown and pink and beige and purple,
tan and blue and white.

I've sailed upon the seven seas
and stopped in every land,
I've seen the wonders of the world
not yet one common man.

I know ten thousand women
called Jane and Mary Jane,
but I've not seen any two
who really were the same.

Mirror twins are different
although their features jibe,
and lovers think quite different thoughts
while lying side by side.

We love and lose in China,
we weep on England's moors,
and laugh and moan in Guinea,
and thrive on Spanish shores.

We seek success in Finland,
are born and die in Maine.
In minor ways we differ,
in major we're the same.

I note the obvious differences
between each sort and type,
but we are more alike, my friends,
than we are unalike.

We are more alike, my friends,
than we are unalike.

We are more alike, my friends,
than we are unalike.

~Maya Angelou

AOM'S THEME SONG
        
Let's Recharge our Spirits on the Hump Day!!!!
            
If I had to choose a theme song
SING, SING, SING
Would have to be it
            
I have never been able to chose a favorite song
My taste in music is far to eclectic
I love SOOOO much music
 But
This song is one that I keep coming back to
I've posted this before
And
I will post it again
Because it makes me feel so good
And gets me dancing more than any other
I totally lose myself in this song
          
So get up off your ass and dance with me!!
                    
 "SING, SING, SING"
Benny Goodman and His Orchestra

Lover Boy (oil on canvas) by TM Davy

~*~

Modern people
are frantically trying to earn enough
to buy things they're too busy to enjoy.

~Frank A. Clark

~*~

Rabindranath Tagore writes
that the song he wanted to sing
has never happened because he spent his days
“stringing and unstringing” his instrument. 
Whenever I read these lines
a certain sadness enters my soul. 
I get so preoccupied with the details
and pressure of my schedule,
with the hurry and worry of life,
that I miss the song of goodness
which is waiting to be sung through me.

~Joyce Rupp

~*~

Life lived amidst tension and busyness needs leisure.
Leisure that recreates and renews. 
Leisure should be a time to think new thoughts,
not ponder old ills.

~C. Neil Strait
