Minerva’s Kiss

Published on by Glorialana10 Comments

Hello God!

Thank You for today’s Inspiration to be happy. Goddess of Wisdom told me a story I am in hurry to share with you.

Young King is sad. The great responsibility is on his shoulders. How to protect my people and make them happy?

TheKingsSadness

Daughter of Jupiter, Minerva, the goddess of wisdom follows the King when he is walking in his garden near the palace. The book is in his hands.

TheBook

There is only a small strip

With a scattered boundary

Between suffering and happiness.

Life is so changeable

Like the weather.

And a habitual melancholy

Tiptoes silently…

Minerva

Minerva says: so it be,

Your happiness will return

When I kiss your dry lips…

And the silver trumpets will sing again!

by Shvedchikov A.

Greatness

Walking in Royal Palace Garden in Brussels I shot these photos. The book is my French finding.

Minerva follows us and kisses by her infinitive wisdom to live joyfully here and now. Thank you for your kiss.

Hello God!

Thank You for the places of Power we can find and stand on its we can nurture ourselves by Your Energy and Vibration. There are moments when we touch the earth and the earth touches us and an enlightenment happens. We feel this spot instantaneously.

My daughter had found the spot when we were walking in the Royal Palace Garden in Brussels.

Fountain

The girl shines brilliantly with
Her golden rays, sparkling
like vortexes of luster.

Vibrating sounds by strings of the Sky
Support the Earth Harmony, we feel
Ideal brilliance of Life!

Floating through her hands
A ball of Light we play with joy and
Mesmerized by “It is my life”!

SharingLight

Really our life is a ball of light. Thank you for playing the game lightball together.

I wish you a really playful week and have an easy Monday!

Good Luck Charm

Hello God!

Thank You for this luck to live providing to all of us. You know not only we but the whole Universe is created by pure luck. Stephen Hawking in his book “The Grand Design” writes: “Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist.”

Professor continues “That makes the coincidences of our planetary conditions – the single Sun, the lucky combination of Earth-Sun distance and solar mass.” So we all are lucky to live.

I am awarded for the 1000th comment in my friend’s Linda blog. It was a pure luck and lucky combination of myriad of factors in this time and space continuum. I call myself a Good Luck Charm for Linda and sincerely believe it works. I am accepting the award with great gratitude and joy. Thank you Linda for your lite being in my life.

Thank you dear Shree for creating the award, this delightful symbol of global communication and unity. Your light is bright and my way is brighter because of you.

Stephen Hawking said “We have this one life to appreciate the grand design of the universe and for that, I am extremely grateful.” So am I. Thank you for the grand design you are building on my way now. You are my Good Luck Charm.

Have a lucky weekend!

Chocolate Moustache

Hello God!

Thank You for Belgian waffles. Its are so delicious. You know there are two types of Belgian waffles: the Brussels and the Liege waffle. We were walking in Brussels and it was logic that we tried the Brussels type.

Brussels

Freshly prepared waffles: at the same time, warm, light, deliciously crusty outside and soft inside. Mmmm, I am feeling this magic scent now.

WafflesFactory

Brussels waffle is made in a deep waffle iron which makes large divots in the finished waffle.

We sit down at a table in “Waffle Factory” cafe and enjoyed the rich taste of the incredible city. Chocolate moustache had decorated my lips. I am saying you, it is bliss.

ChocolateMoustache

By the way did you know that The Belgian waffle is an American creation that was introduced at the 1964 World’s Fair where it was called a “Bel Gem Waffle” and that Thomas Jefferson was so enamoured with waffles that he had an iron shipped from France to Monticello? It is interesting.

Thank you very much for sharing with this happy moment. I hope I inspire you to create a Chocolate Moustache on your face with freshly cooked Belgium waffle.

Little Julian

Hello God!

Thank You for great joy of life. Happily laughing I will tell you a story about little Julian. Julian is a 2 y.o. boy from Brussels. He is famous and according wikipedia originally he looks like as on the photo you see below.

We were lucky to meet him in this costume. Julian is a great fashionista, his wardrobe counts more than 900 suits.

LittleJulian

A son of Grand Madam

Went missing on the shopping street.

He was, of course, our naughty Julian.

Panic-stricken woman cried:

Help me, help me, please,

To find my little, little child!

Julian

City wide search began,

Every corner was by eye,

Mayor of the city had found

Our naughty Julian.

He peacefully smiled

Doing the thing

Nature dictates to all of us.

Julians

Grand Madam was happy

Gift of gratitude made.

The city had the fountain built.

It is, of course, our naughty Julian.

Thank you for your smile and sharing my today’s inspiration.

Via Est Vita

Published on by Glorialana16 Comments

Hello God!

Thank You for the roads we choose and are chosen. Via Est Vita – Road is life.

We have just come back from our very big and wonderful journey. And I know really it is true the road is life. For 25 days we have covered 7214 km! We have been in 6 countries (Poland, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France, Luxembourg) and lived in 7 places.

OurRoad

“The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say…”

J.R.R. Tolkien reflects my thoughts in a very accurate way by this poem. Beautiful words are warming my soul gently.

LaTerre

La Terre (The Earth) is rich, beautiful and generous. We all are gifted by her. You know my mind is dancing colourful cancan now but in this versicoloured mess I have found the main motive: we all are blessed by this possibility to live and see this beauty of life.

Roads are La Terre’s veins where blood of life circulates in.

Statue

The photos were taken in Versailles garden. We were there I will tell about this gorgeous place later. Travelling clarifies the beauty of life. I know now how I am blessed by this possibility to live, see and feel the beauty with my family.

In my today’s dream I was flying in the sky for the first time in my adult life, I am happy and smiling writing these words. Thank you for sharing the road which is my life.

Love Sonata

Hello God!

Thank You for my romantic heart. It is inspired by the paintings of Dorina Costras to tell you a love story today.

End of the day
No other way

Mister Sun goes to hide
Lady Moon shines bright

After sun burns
Moonlight turns

Never ending ritual
Life’s marital or burial

SunMoon

Moon wants to meet his love
Which is the ever sun above

Lady Moon drops his endless tears
As millions of glittering stars

SunMoonLove

End of the night
Dawn’s beautiful sight

Moon must fade
Sun gets awake

ImpossibleLove

Sun seems to sparkle with love
Like a huge golden dove

Moon’s ever dark sadness
Sun’s eternal light gladness

Never ending story
Of an impossible love

by Morhardt Carmen Mencita Monoi Angel

Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven tells us why it rains when the Moon cries… Thank you for sharing this poetically beautiful moment.

Bird Flies

Hello God!

Thank You for this possibility to make each other better. My daughter asked me about a birds in a cages we have seen in the zoo: “Why are these birds in the cages? In my fairy tales birds live in a magic forest.” I explained that the zoo is a kind of hospital for a sick birds. Its will live in a forest when a doctor allows. 5 y.o. is a good age for this story, daughter is satisfied by my answer.

“God loved the birds and invented trees. Man loved the birds and invented cages.” Jacques Deval sarcastically said. The words mirror human approach to nature, but in our will to help each other to become better, kinder and in the end make a little creature free. I mean “little creature” in the wide sense. We all have something or somebody to free.

CagedBird

I love poems by Alexander Pushkin. The special one for today is “The Little Bird”.

Here in a foreign land
I perform an ancient rite:
I free a bird from my hand
in Spring’s cascading light.

Cage

The act consoles my heart,
how can I grudge God’s will;
if I can grant, to some small part
of Creation, freedom, still?

Thank you for your help to make me better. Happy Friday!

Mind’s Eye

Published on by Glorialana18 Comments

Hello God!

Thank You for our mind’s eyes. According to wikipedia: “The phrase “mind’s eye” refers to the human ability for visualization, for the experiencing of visual mental imagery; in other words, one’s ability to “see” things with the mind.”

I have met two variations of the phrase: “the eye of the mind” and “the mind’s eye”.

The phrase “the eye of the mind” comes from Plato. Philosophy is the path to enlightenment, to see by the light of the Sun in the real world outside of the cave of illusion which ignorance is. The intellect shows the true reality. This is reality as seen through the eye of the mind.

MindEye

“The mind’s eye” probably became known through the work of Shakespeare. He uses it in the best-known of all plays – Hamlet, 1602, in a scene where Hamlet is recalling his father:

HORATIO:
Where, my lord?

HAMLET:
In my mind’s eye, Horatio.

Mind'sEye

The Mind’s Eye is powerful. The Mind’s Eye actually creates the world.  Since “the world” for Hegel means “knowledge of the world” through the mind, then as mind develops, knowledge changes and the world changes in accordance. Mind is what makes human beings human. Further, the categories of thought are universal in being the same for all human minds. The world is the creation, the product, of these universal categories of thought. All forms of activity are the embodiments of the ideas of each activity.

We think, therefore we are. How and what we think determines who we are and how we live. French philosopher Henri Bergson has a famous quote: “The eye sees only what the mind is prepared to comprehend.” Me have to clear the lenses our mind’s eyes see through by a new happy knowledge and vision of the dream we desire to embody every moment of life.

For Aristotle, the purpose of life is not just to live but to live well, to flourish. Since this is so, it makes sense to think well. To live well, it is necessary to think well. As we think, so shall we live.

Fall’s air and sounds of falling gold leaves create a mood to think, dream and visualize. Thank you for your mind’s eye we create our reality by.
