Being happy

Think about the things that make you happy. Make a list of them. Remind yourself of the things that make you smile.
You will find that most often the things that give us real happiness have nothing to do with things, objects, stuff.


The Grand essentials of happiness are: something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.
~Allen K Chalmers~

If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion
~HH the Dalai Lama~

The greatest part of our happiness depends on our dispositions, not our circumstances.
~Martha Washington~

People spend a lifetime searching for happiness; looking for peace. They chase idle dreams, addictions, religions, even other people, hoping to fill the emptiness that plagues them. The irony is the only place they ever needed to search was within.
~Ramona L. Anderson~

The secret to happiness?
Be satisfied.
Be grateful.
~ Mitch Albom

Being Imperfect Quotes & Sayings

I'm not perfect and I'll never be perfect, but I'm perfectly fine with that.


We all have our own faults, that is we should try not to judge other people too much!


I accept that I can't help everybody, I can't please everyone either. I'm not perfect; but I know one thing for sure! I'm a work in progress, a student in class and a man that is willing to learn from his mistakes. So that I can have a better understanding in life.

Life is precious, it's beautiful you just need to have right attitude towards it. Live it in your own way without any regret.

Even when my Life seems to be crashing down, I still see God's Blessings and Grace standing out solidly in my Life.

My granddaughter increasingly claim my attention and leave me less time to enjoy leisure moments.
I hope that this year 2019 comes loaded with a lot of time to make everyone participate in my creations.
I'll start with a very special cake for my family.
The cake was brown (one of my granddaughter’s favorites)   with a soft vanilla buttercream that covered it.

One Morning in my verandah..

Alone with myselfThe trees bend to caress meThe shade hugs my heart.~Candy Polgar

My Jatropa  and Fangipani  in sky background

 Trees are poems that earth writes upon the sky,
We fell them down and turn them into paper,
That we may record our emptiness.
~Kahlil Gibran

Tree   in front of our gate

Making Umbrella in our Balcony 

Trees are your best antiques.  ~Alexander Smith 

Behind the gate

 The groves were God's first temples.  ~William Cullen Bryant, "A Forest Hymn"

Isn't it beautiful!

 God has cared for these trees, saved them from drought, disease, avalanches, and a thousand tempests and floods.  But he cannot save them from fools.  ~John Muir

MY niece......with her friend.....

Since it was safer for everyone if we stayed with the tree tank when wind Storm -is furious enough to move on toward shelter area……,"we found a big tree while it happened (wind storm) during our walk toward the library after our class" said my niece…..

I never saw a discontented tree. They grip the ground as though they liked it, and though fast rooted they travel about as far as we do.
John Muir

Trees go wandering forth in all directions with every wind, going and coming like ourselves, traveling with us around the sun two million miles a day, and through space heaven knows how fast and far!
John Muir

Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.
John Muir

And we felt quiet safe under the protection of a Big TREE TANK!

 Have a nice day!

My yarn knowledge

Oswal

Previously i was not in the habit of  gainning any knowledge of yarn!

 i just used to buy yarn ( i usually asked about the brand during yarn), rolled them into beautiful balls, and promptly forget about them...as in, i was not organized with my yarn, i don't keep the labels and,or write them down, or in lots of cases remember their names ...brands, what they are! But this time i promised to keep the record of every yarn i bought!!!!!

this is the label of all this yarn in boxes

all information

"The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together." ~William Shakespeare

 "For people allergic to wool, one's heart can only bleed." ~Elizabeth Zimmerman

Have a Lovely day!
