This morning, I was sitting on our back porch with a cup of tea, Daniel was playing with Winslow in the yard, two squirrels were chasing each other up and down a tree trunk, the birds were singing, the air was balmy and a light breeze was dancing around me ... when it hit me!
This is perfection, that present moment! It didn't matter where I'd been or what I was planning to do later. Everything else sort of fell away and at the same time was contained in that single moment.
And then, in the attempt to hold on to that moment for just a little longer, it vanished making room for the next one! Wishing you a Sunday filled with perfectly happy moments!!
It sounds like your morning was simply ideal. Wouldn't it be nice if we could all take some time to stop and appreciate what we have. Thanks for the reminder, Silke!
ReplyDeleteThat little scrubbie thing is cute -- it almost looks like it could be a child's toy.
You are so right, each and very moment has its precious values if we just take the time to see them.:)
ReplyDeletePerfection INDEED! Oh that first photo with the purple flower...what could be more perfect? Nuttin! I Love this post, Silke. I am right there with you. Oh, will answer your email in the morning...have been doing a lot of pondering and reflecting on the class and life and how I want to live it. Balanced. Moment by moment. I don't want to miss a thing. **blows kisses** Deb

Hello Silke, diese Momente sind sehr selten. Genieße die Sommertage und vielen Dank für deine lieben Comments. Ich freue mich immer auf deine Posts. Have a nice week. Greetings, Inge
ReplyDeleteAw, Silke, you are so sweet to mention my blog and show your Tweety - what a lucky little fella he turned out to be, living with you and all he has to do is sit there and look cute amongst your flowers - bet he's not scrubbed a single dish yet ;-)
ReplyDeleteYes, indeed "... these are the moments to remember..." sounds like a lovely morning indeed.
Thanks for being such a sweet person!
The thought of squirrels chasing each other up a tree is pure magic... I have never seen a squirrel before. Sounds like a blissfull Sunday. x
ReplyDeletePerfect indeed. Who could ask for more? Moments like this are non pareil.
ReplyDeleteI do love moments like that. So wonderful that it was one of those "perfect" days. :) Theresa
ReplyDeleteYOur flowers are beautiful. We should all learn to be so grateful and appreciate each wonderful moment as it happens. As I get older I am becoming more and more appreciative of the little things~~~
