Cooking metaphors for gardening? That’s so Lady G!
Bonus: Me watching for fireflies. Unfortunately, you might not be able to see them flash because they go so fast, but at least you can enjoy the sounds of the crickets chirping on a beautiful Southern night 🙂
Happy Father’s Day Daddy! Thanks for being a great DAD! Love you!
Run time: less than 6 mins
If you follow this blog, you probably already know how much LadyG LOVES being in nature.
Best believe, I never get bored with a beautiful sunrise, a stately tree, or twittering from the feathered ones.
So…
Today, I decided to capture some video of a walk that I took a bit earlier this fine Easter Sunday morning.
No doubt thoughts of resurrection and rebirth swirled all around my mind and heart.
It’s a perfect day to ponder such things…don’t you think?
Anyway, the video is quite short, but it has a meditative quality.
At least to me it does 🙂
The whole thing is less than 5 minutes long and packed full of trees, sky, sun and tweeting birds.
OH! If you beleive that orbs are actually spirits or angelic beings, then look closely because I caught sight of an orb in one of the clips.
I meant to mark it but I forgot!
And so…
Take a look-see and let me know what you think!
BTW, this was shot on my iphone7 plus.
Enjoy!
If a man says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who doesn’t love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?
–1 John 4:20
Just behind this door resides a noble little fae
Who has an open heart of gold for those who’ve lost their way.
She gathers all her eensy friends;
They know just what to do.
They share their food,
They offer care,
They teach eternal truth,
No questions asked;
No judgments made;
No hoarding of “the loot.”
They know that one can’t pull a strap unless he has a boot.
-Lady G
A simple rhyme from LadyG’s imagination!
Anyway…
Lately, I find myself so disheartened by current events; especially in the U.S.
Seriously! I often wonder if people realize that our children are looking on as adults act like violent and malicious spoiled brats who are singularly focused on what is best for them and theirs.
Everything is…
MINE!
ME!
THEM! They are the problem!
What about US?
What’s our role?
What are we teaching our babies when we behave this way?
What are we teaching ourselves…The world?
We can do better!
Question, do all of the God-fearing folks really believe in and have reverence for God?
Simply put, you can’t love God in heaven while stepping all over your brother on Earth.
I’ve had enough!
And so…
I’ve created my own alternate world where love, kindness and generousity reign.
I’ve done it before.
Does anybody want to join me? Plan to pray and meditate 🙂
Love and light to you all 💋
There must be always remaining in every life, some place for the singing of angels, some place for that which in itself is breathless and beautiful.

Whenever I have time, I like to spend cool mornings outside admiring nature; especially during late summer and fall.
I don’t know, I guess it’s one of the ways in which I count my blessings.
Mornings spent in nature provide the best proof of The Divine!
Ah…but the fireflies in the evening are a sight to see! My Dad told a beautiful story about seeing a magical night-time firefly show while working as a conductor on the railroad.
You can find that lovely piece right here.
But…Lady G….you digress!
Indeed, I have.
Excuse me my loves.
Anyway, this morning a couple of butterflies decided to put on a show of shows!
I almost tripped myself trying to grab my i-phone to capture this glorious display of groovyness! LOL!!!
Here are some of the shots that I was able to grab.
Enjoy!
Have a marvelous weekend!
Love and light to you!
-LadyG😘💋💋
It is our Beloved’s Perfect Will that we expand and grow!
Let nature be your guide.
Have a glorious week!
Love and light to you all,
LadyG 😘💋
Would you just look at those collard greens and ‘maters!
Just look at ’em!
I don’t know about you, but fresh produce is a MUST in my life!
That said, doesn’t this inspire you to want to go plant a garden?
It inspired me!
But there’s a problem…
Lady G ain’t ’bout to go digging ’round in the Lord’s ground…
What with snakes, and worms and any manner of creeping thing that creepeth!
I simply cannot!
But….
I can see myself working with planters and raised garden beds.
And so…
My daughter, Lady J, and I have decided to recruit my Dad to teach us how to grow veggies and herbs using the aforementioned.
So let it be written, so let it be done!
The Ladies have spoken!
LOL!!!!
Oh, by the way, excuse my manners! It’s been awhile and I haven’t had time to drop by and wish you guys a happy summer!
So…
Happy Summer my loves!
I will certainly keep you posted on the progress of our garden project.
Until then…
Enjoy these pics!
Leave me a comment or just say hello!
I pray that you all have a magnificent week! Love and light to you!

One day a friend and I were gazing from a large picture window.
I commented, “Wow…look at that beautiful scenery…It’s breathtaking!”
My friend replied, “What scenery?”
That’s just a bunch of trees!”
I didn’t respond.
Perspective…
