Curiosity maybe is t the word I would choose. Right now I would choose miracles! I have been so blessed by being able to attend another retreat in Stockholm and I can’t even explain how truly grateful I am. Thank you 🙏 Thank you for showing me the way to Truth I could never have dreamed this is amazing. Meditation and throwing away the false human mind is grace . Thank you!
Since I moved back to my hometown over five years ago, I have taken an interest in my family history. How did my ancestors come to this area to settle and build their lives. I am curious about that.
I have been using graphite pencils in my artwork for a few years now.
I go to weekly groups and work on portraits and figure drawing.
Curiosity is inviting me to start using color.
Also I’m curious about Neptune and Uranus.
I read recently that each have oceans on their surface.
I need to look into this again.
Oceans? Water???
Probably not H2O, but still.
I’m very curious and must get back to this!
Curiosity is inviting me to dig deeper into my subconscious to better understand how and why I operate the way I do and to dig deeper into my understanding of the world and how it works.
And basically everything. I love learning new things.
My curiosity today is about how am I going to find certain items on my family’s Christmas wish lists!! Not quite sure where to look etc. plus I am not fond of “having to shop”! I have to remind myself to have fun & be love as my curiosity leads me to the perfect gifts. ❤️
Mine is a simple curiosity today…I am curiously watching the thermometer…hoping it goes up to a warmer day. My dog, Clancy wants to go to the park…and has been asking for several days…Yes! he does let his wishes known. He stands by the door going down to the garage- or goes to the basement and sits next to the car! The cold really bothers me- so I am hoping for a warmer day to take a stroll in the park. Wishing everyone a wonderful Sunday.
I have a family member who lives about 5 hours away who was recently found to have early dementia– likely Alzheimer’s. I have recently started reading “The 36 Hour Day” to learn more. I already have done a lot of learning about dementia in the past, but it is different when it is one’s own family member. Curiosity invites me to follow into his mind and experience, and also to try to find ways to support him and the family members that live with or near him. And to find ways to maintain as rich as possible of a bond with him even though I can rarely travel and he can rarely travel.
Elizabeth, how timely your comment is! Last evening at Church our priest (age 57) told the Parishioners that he recently noticed (in the last few months) that he was having difficulty with his memory. Our pastor encouraged him to get “checked out”. It has been found that he has a cognitive disorder – the start of Alzheimers. I left Mass in tears. He is going to Lourdes on Pilgrimage and will pray for a miracle….but he knows full and well that may not be God’s plan. I join in prayer for your family member. I have no way to help our priest but to pray.
Oh my goodness, Nannette– sending love and prayers for your priest and your congregation! How brave of your priest to come forward and share this with the parishioners. And thank you for joining me in prayer for my family member.
At a recent service, our minister (Unitarian Universalist) talked about the difference between being cured and being healed. Being cured might be to no longer have Alzheimer’s or a certain disease. Being healed could mean to still have it, but somehow to be at peace with one’s journey.

My son had gotten me a nice wooden Advent Calendar – I am curious as to what today’s lil gift will be. I’ve been enjoying opening each day, lol. I bought one for my daughter and it should be coming soon. Looking forward to filling it up with goodies.
Have a nice peaceful relaxing Sunday everyone ☮
I read this on line:Water the amaryllis when the top two inches of soil are dry, and allow the pot to drain. Avoid over watering, as wet soil can cause the bulb to rot.

Today, I will take my first shift as a Crisis text-line counselor. I’m curious to expand my own resilience and empathy. I’m so nervous right now. But I want to help people in need with my warmhearted soul. Wishing everyone a wonderful Sunday.
What a wonderful gift you have….whoever reaches out to you; I am sure you will ease their pain with your care and your words. Good Luck and God Bless You.
Curiosity is inviting me to build upon Paw Mu’s vision for me. I’m currently expanding upon my Vietnamese. My mom also sends me a bunch of stories to read. Developing deeper connections with the people Paw Mu advised me to stay closer to from my: family, elders, and culture prevents me from going alone, makes me feel like a part of something bigger, brings me closer to my origins, and protects me from modern societal chaos. Rebelion has convinced me that I’m a liberal. Some of that is true, but the truth is that I’m a wing with conservative roots.
When I follow the path of least resistance, as water does when seeking its level, curiosity allows me to enjoy going with the flow. Helps me appreciate the suchness of each moment. To be alive now, explore what is in front of me, not was behind nor ahead. Curiosity killed the cat. Satisfaction brought him back. So, the saying goes. Namaste.

. . . to listen carefully
to the ocean within me,
and pay attention
to the rest of my life . . .
. . . to free myself
from the chains I wear . . .
chains forged
only by myself . . .
. . . to live as closely as I can
to all that is Divine,
and still be connected
to the wisdom of others . . .
. . . to be, to simply be,
neither beaten down,
nor raised up
by others . . .
I Echo Beautiful.
So beautiful Sparrow!
This is what really matters.
♥️♥️♥️
Since I moved back to my hometown over five years ago, I have taken an interest in my family history. How did my ancestors come to this area to settle and build their lives. I am curious about that.
I am very curious about that too.
We learn all kinds of history.
Why not our family history?

Remembering John Lennon today. RIP🖤
Give Peace a Chance,
Yes, absolutely, Joseph.
Give peace a chance.
Yes, the victim of murder.
Who’da thunk.
The Beatles so talented,
and each going their own way.

I too am hoping the temperature rises Nannette. I, like Clancy need to get outside & walk. I hope it warms up for you both.🙏🏻
I hope that you and Clancy get a warmer day today, Nannette!

I am curious to be in the world but not of it.
I am also curious how an amaryllis, that is not to be watered, survive.
I read this on line:Water the amaryllis when the top two inches of soil are dry, and allow the pot to drain. Avoid over watering, as wet soil can cause the bulb to rot.
The instructions on this one was “No water needed.”
Just received an amaryllis myself! Observing/ wondering the same thing.

I join the others,
dear Ngoc,
in supporting the work you are starting…
you are very brave,
and your natural warmth
will respond to those in need. ♥
Thank you so much for your inspired words, Sparrow. 💐
What a wonderful gift you have….whoever reaches out to you; I am sure you will ease their pain with your care and your words. Good Luck and God Bless You.
Thank you so much, Nannette, for being with me. I’m thankful for doing ok with my first shift yesterday.
what a wonderful offering! I think you’re going to do great.
Thank you so much, Sunnypatti, for your great support. ☺
Good luck Ngoc with your first shift as a Crisis text-line counselor. 🙂
Thank you so much, Michele. Yours and eveyone’s words bring me confidence and grateful for the path I chose.
My Ngoc, your strengths of being mindful of your words and depth align with this position. I wish you the best of luck on your journey.
My Loc, I’m pretty happy to have you here. Always be supportive and cares about me. Love U. ♥

I am curious to see how the part of me that is intuition and heart will be developed.

Thank you for your response…it is very helpful to me today.
