(click to enlarge)Tonight we celebrate the Full Pink Moon along with Jamie Ridler over at Starshyne Productions!
I made the above dreamboard to reflect the peace and promise of this full moon. I am including this piece as part of my anniversary giveaway.
What do you wish to bloom into your life?
Before I make any wishes I would like to give thanks.
- for being healthy and strong
- for having the freedom to choose
- for having a steady job and income
- for having a roof over my head and food on my table
- for having a good brain and heart
- for having awesome friends who are like family
- for my Stinky
- for the luxury to engage in creativity
- for BEing
Sometimes, I get so caught up in what I want or lack, that I might forget what I have. What I take for granted. We live in a world that stumbles over economic crises, political messes, religious upheavals and social fallout. Last night, I went to see Sin Nombre (Without a Name), directed by Cary Fukunaga. It drove home to me the realities that some people have to live with, and it isn't pretty in pink. There are children that are growing up with violence, and hunger. Lack of water and education. No safety. No love. No future. That is tragic.
So today.
I wish for love to bloom in this world. For every child to have the safety and love to grow up into a healthy adult full of choices. To make a better world.
Blessed be :)

When we see how the other half lives, it makes it so very, very difficult to not become appreciative of the many blessings we already have and, I am with you, may everyone in this world have those same blessings as well. It is a near impossibility but we can hope that one day all people will view their world and others with eyes of the same eyes of compassion and humanity....it is the only way we will ever move forward. ((hugs to you my sweet))
What wonderful wishes for blooming this month! Here's to hoping they bloom in full flower! :)
I wish this as well...that every child gets love, nourishment, and a chance to live a happy life.
May love be found in everything!
