eat.....PRAY............love

  I love to Eat.
I take time to Pray.
The Love of my family is different than the love I have for friends.
Did you see this movie?
Did you read the book?
I have many times and plan on watching it again. 


Who doesn't love to eat...............but do we eat for the pleasure of enjoying the flavors of our food?  Are we mindful while eating?
It depends on the food that I'm eating.  After cooking a meal, I'm not always in the frame of mind to enjoy it.......cook, eat and then let's get this kitchen cleaned up so I can sit down and relax or read or knit or whatever.

My morning starts with prayer........my rosary.........until lately that is. I don't like some of the wording that is in the rosary so I decided to change it, well that hasn't worked either.  So I tried another way of praying and that certainly didn't inspire me.  So what do I do now?  I quit.  Who needs prayer?  How many people do you know or think you know that do not pray? That was my reasoning as to why I don't need to pray.  That wasn't a good thing for me.  I ended up feeling empty and no sense of direction.
Has this ever happened to you?
What did you do to turn your prayer life around?

I love my grandchildren unconditionally.
I love my husband, who is so kind and gentle, and my children, whom I've always believe have been such a wonderful gift from God.
Do I love others like we are taught as children?  NO.
I haven't reached that state of perfection like Jesus, whom we are taught to believe that Jesus loved everyone.  I'm not Jesus.  I try and I fail.

I know I deserve something beautiful..........my life is filled with beautiful things.......family, friends, events, knitting, painting and nature and the not so beautiful things help me to look at life and change so that the beauty can be created.

Thanks for stopping by and sitting on the porch............I've been away for a few days baking for other people to enjoy...........stop by again and enjoy the Beauty.
