Sunday Random Sunday

I've decided to attempt something new. .  .I was thinking about how people capture random moments in a day and make a social media video of it. . . and thought, "wonder if that's something I would do."

Instead of doing a video, though, have decided to do a blog with some photos or videos or links or quotes of things that struck me during the week. Kind of like a fun reflection, and a bit of insight into my life. . . it might be random....it might be inspirational...who knows....I decided Sunday was a good day for a bit of Randomness....so here it comes... [PS click on the photo to see the bigger image]

Tuesday night art lessons [ above] . . . the start of something new. actually so far I haven't finished a picture that I've started . . . maybe this time I will.

This quote hit me like a curve-ball . . . it is super profound . . . how often do we get stuck in our heads, our memories or our past? stuck in a moment, it prevents us from moving forward . . . I heard a preacher say this morning that if we aren't advancing...then we are digressing . . . sad but true.
Also, due to pondering this quote... have had a U2 song stuck in my head all week.

Mulberrys! Mullberys! YUMMY Mullburrys! New accommodation has a Mulberry tree that hangs over into our garden, and they are super sweet, super yummy and in abundance...reminds me of a time in my childhood when we were in Johannesburg [well just outside] and we had a Mulberry tree in the middle of our front garden.....did I mention that they are YUMMY?!?!?

One of my favorite songs, but one of my favorite band has a song with these lyrics [above]. The privilege of grace and redemption....Too often I am aware of my failings, weaknesses and mistakes. Thank God for His redemption love. Go ahead and refresh your soul and take a listen to the song...let yourself be reminding of His forgiveness and refreshed by His love.

Sometimes a girl's just got to buy herself some flowers. #TakeTimeToAppreciateBeauty.

Lazy Sunday afternoons, chilling with a friend, playing a game. . . new memories and fond reminders of times gone by.

I might not be completely unpacked nor settled, but I have invested time in decorating and creating beautiful spaces.

Speaking of creating.... I created a mini water feature, all by myself... so rewarding. just a small one to create some atmosphere. Previous home had fire....this one has water. 

I leave you with words of wisdom from the water bottle I found. Take heart, and remember that there is always a reason to smile.
