Hi everyone... I wanted to say Thank you to SOUTHERN BELLE Magazine for featuring me in the magazine... Showing some of my attention to detail in decorating my home and my photographs (I love taking pics) ... Most of all for mentioning my blog.. The Rusty Pearl name ... YOU name it . I wanted to do jumping Jacks.. I felt proud and thankful .. I meet so many great people on this blog.. That I just want to love for the rest of my life.. SO I wanted to take a moment and say thank you to SOUTHERN BELLE for making my day !!! .. It is a great magazine and I love all the features !!!
---- Yall know that Wednesday is friend day .. I go walking at work with some friends and I met this lady walking ..>Each day she is doing something UNIQUE.. I would love to just sit and talk with her.. She would be walking she wears this Asian hat and you hear no music she is dancing to life sometimes I pass her she is smiling bigger than anthing and she keeps on moving waving her arms like doing the wave or she is shimming and dancing.. I snapped a pic of her.. She is my friend she just does not know it yet LOL .. LOVE her spirit and zest for life.. I just GET HER LOL
here she is below ...
I have been on this kick where if you sit long enough (30 ) minutes something will happen .. Well I was looking at the sun the other day .. If you get real quiet you hear LIFE around you .. a hummm and its true.. GOD'S creatures they happen by .. Or you see a beautiful weed even in the garden that somehow just is beautiful and deserves to be there... saw this one walking into work.. I thought .. LOOK what it has been thru and its bloomed anyway and just beautiful .. It just deserved to be there.. SO I saw a guy that looked like maybe he was gardening.. I said Can you leave that one .. He said sure....SO now everyday I am looking to make sure its still there and if I have water left in my water bottle at the end of the day .. I water it ..
see below :
Well I just wanted to close with .. we are on this journey .. Take out some time out of your day and soak it all in . Be thankful for it .. GOD is so good.. I see it so much in all I do . I feel so blessed and thankful.... Have a blessed week my sweet friends and thanks for giving me some of your time and love and inspiration . YOU really do bless me... HUGS --- I am so glad GOD crossed our paths in this life.. I am better for it ... TOODLES !!!!

Hi, Sherry! When my son was younger, he was ALWAYS talking! I remember on quite a few occassions, I would try to get him to just be still and listen. Listen to the sounds of life around and know that our God is awesome in that He made all these things for us! As I get older, I really appreciate the silence! It is in these times that I feel closer to God! Congrats on the magazine feature! Blessings, Tammy
ReplyDeleteWow Sherry. What a great post. There's not much 'quiet' in our house anymore with a toddler but I try and have some meditation time each week. LOVE it. And congrats on being featured! What an honor!
ReplyDeleteEvening Sherry, A BIG WHOO-HOO and Congrats for your feature in Southern Belle!! (I must find that magazine!) I too, met a dancing lady yesterday at an Old Fashioned Flea Mkt.....she was clogging at some gentlemen playing christian/blue grass music. I stood next to her, watching and enjoying her free happy spirit, then complimented her afterwards. I wanted to join her, but I can't clog! She said to me...Take some lessons!! You'll love it! Loved her spirit as well as yours....If I get this camper girl....be ready to JUNK! Blessings and prayers~~~Roxie
ReplyDeleteI love your lady who dances and walks... and I love it that you give such sweet energy and sustenance to your little flower...
