WEEKEND THOUGHTS

The weekend always brings with it a chance for something new. Is it the old patterns I have lived with for so long, when I worked Monday-Friday and Friday night started the weekend? Or, is it that there is a bit of free time...some time to do just exactly what I want or just to sleep in a bit or read a book or?

Whatever the case, the weekend is almost upon me and doors open all the time on new opportunities to do or places to go. I think I shall take a bit of time to explore my options and hope that the weather decides to cooperate a bit too. If not, I just might take the opportunity to do exactly nothing. Or do something really slow. That counts too doesn't it? I don't always have to be doing something or going someplace to enjoy the weekend.

Living in the moment is quite hard. It takes a lot of practice and is something that I really need to work on. So, this weekend, I don't think that I will plan anything in advance and I will just see where things take me. I will practice living in the now of the next two days and trust my Divine Guidance to give me exactly what I need. I hope that everyone else will be enjoying their weekends too. Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, enjoy those moments. They can change so quickly.

  2. My Mum calls these unstructured times - puttering and I think its the perfect word for pleasing ourselves and taking things at our own pace. Enjoy your weekend. Mine is unstructured too and, I feel all the better for it! penny

  4. Thank you for this post. I need to be constantly reminded to stay in the moment, something I strive for. Your red door is wonderful and reminds me of opening possibilities. Enjoy your week-end.

  5. I also find living in the moment to be kind of tough. I feel like I am not being organized if I don't plan!

  6. Red Door!

    Teri :) I can't imagine a woman like you not being able to live in the moment. You have a peace about you. A stillness, a quietness of the spirit. Like a lake in the early morning. Beautiful. Deep, calm and wise, yet teeming with life.
