ice castles.....

...and the ice princess whispered.....come, play and discover the treasures in my castle.

i love how the melting snow drips...drips...drips and forms the most magical ice castles.

they are beautiful.

they are intricate.

a simple pleasure.

mmm....color

it is amazing what a little color can do for the soul in the dead of winter.

my son and I took a trip to the como conservatory last week.  the stargazer lillies were bright and beautiful.....

the color green warmed my heart....a large fern unfurling caught my eye.

color...brings out the inner goddess in my~lovely~self.

rosehips...

the ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.

~hans hofman~

i love rosehips in the wintertime.....a simple reminder of what was....no leaves or lovely scented flowers....simplicity.....bare bones.....only the fruit left.  if you sit long enough you will be able to hear them speak....along with your soul.

blessings of beauty in your day.

being brave....

Be brave enough to live creatively.

~Alan Alda~

....and this I am gratefully doing.....my definition of "normal" is quite my very own.

May you find joy in simple pleasures.

Pamela
