A Single Tapestry: Light Makes All of the Difference
http://singletapestry.blogspot.com/2012/01/light-makes-all-of-difference.html
Sunday, January 15, 2012. Light Makes All of the Difference. The beach is so inviting. The sun is so warm, the sand is so clean and the water so blue. It is perfect day to catch a ray, sunbath and get a tan. There is one exception, looks can be deceiving. Today, the only tan that might appear would be on the nose, and it would be more in a shade of red than brown. The wind is whipping up, the air is cold and any sun seekers are enjoying it with a hat, gloves, scarf, and a winter coat. Chillin Soul, 12'.

A Single Tapestry: Enjoying the Clouds on an Island
http://singletapestry.blogspot.com/2012/03/enjoying-clouds-on-island.html
Thursday, March 15, 2012. Enjoying the Clouds on an Island. Sometimes life gets so busy and even when the sun is out we only see the clouds of life. Busyness can creep in and make us feel like we are all alone on an island. Or busyness can make us feel that we need to retreat to an island. Regardless of the circumstances, life's clouds don't always need to be viewed as blocking out good things. Sometimes, life's clouds shade us from too much of a good thing, or help us slow down to see good things!

A Single Tapestry: You Can't Fight Fires Sitting Down
http://singletapestry.blogspot.com/2012/01/you-cant-fight-fires-sitting-down.html
Saturday, January 28, 2012. You Can't Fight Fires Sitting Down. This image caught my eye as I was strolling through the streets of a quaint southern town. You really can't fight fires sitting down. But everyone needs to take a break from the pressures and dangers of life. A comforting, gentle place to unwind makes all of the differnce before going back into the strife. Living life is sometimes a dichotomy. Understanding how to live well on both sides can set one free. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A Single Tapestry: Taking Time To Love...Ourself
http://singletapestry.blogspot.com/2012/01/taking-time-to-loveour-self.html
Monday, January 30, 2012. Taking Time To Love.Ourself. It is all about love. Chocolates, flowers, stuffed animals and jewelry. Is it really about love? Melting, calories, dying, dusty, and rusty,. All of these tangibles fade. True love is finding the inner peace for ourself and then being that to someone else. I wonder if we take the time to give ourselves the gifts we need to truly love another? Time, reflection, space, truth, creativity, food for thought, solitude, peace, service, freedom.

A Single Tapestry: When Life Lands Us in Unusual Places
http://singletapestry.blogspot.com/2012/09/when-life-lands-us-in-unusual-places.html
Tuesday, September 25, 2012. When Life Lands Us in Unusual Places. Moth on a parking lot in MD. I just returned from a trip to the beach to visit a high school friend. She (and her mother) has been caring for her father full time since his stroke several years ago. Her father can't speak very well and his face is somewhat distorted. He can't stand, walk, toilet or feed himself. He goes from the wheelchair to the bed. But what is amazing is the life he leads in between. But what is even more difficult to ...

A Single Tapestry: Korean Freedom
http://singletapestry.blogspot.com/2013/04/korean-freedom.html
Monday, April 8, 2013. This saying never leaves my mind. I remember being an American visitor to the Korean War Memorial, the DMZ and the Joint Security Area. I went to Dorosan Station, and the newly renovated rails that connect North and South Korea. But it remains empty, only with future hope where men, women and children can travel freely back and forth across the present forbidden lines. I wonder if it starts with the heart or the mind? Or maybe it starts with the mouth, with the ability to speak and...

A Single Tapestry: Space to Give
http://singletapestry.blogspot.com/2014/06/space-to-give.html
Saturday, June 21, 2014. So many times in life each of needs a friend.just like the song lyrics "Lean on Me". But so often in life, we are all busy. In the last year and a half, I went to eight funerals including three immediate family members. Life has been shady.too shady. But the sun has come through the darkness in the form of people. People have been my light. They have stepped in and removed the burdens of sadness and loss. And that is what makes life so clearly beautiful! Galveston, Texas 2014.

A Single Tapestry: Nature's Beauty in the Consistency of Change
http://singletapestry.blogspot.com/2012/10/natures-beauty-in-consistency-of-change.html
Monday, October 22, 2012. Nature's Beauty in the Consistency of Change. I walk through the corridors of color. With crisp air and blue skies. My soul rejoices for a brief time. Because I know that with the. Setting of the sun. The colors will quickly fade. The cold will come soon enough. And the leaves will be. And yet my soul is at peace. Nature will make changes to my world. It will take away. But it will also remember to give. For light will still come forth. Through the barren trees. In shades of grey.

A Single Tapestry: A Garden Between Obstacles
http://singletapestry.blogspot.com/2012/08/a-garden-between-obstacles.html
Wednesday, August 15, 2012. A Garden Between Obstacles. Gardens are truly a symbol of life. Telling the world to hope when none can be found. Gardens remind us that life is tenacious. Because they grow anyway. Gardens show us we can get along. Because they can flourish anywhere. Saying that caring for humanity is essential. And it always starts with a seed. Sometimes in the most unlikey places. Because someone is willing to believe. Pictures of Single Journeys Around the World. Glimpses of a Single Life.
