Best Wishes for 2009

December 31

Best Wishes For 2009

I want to thank you all for your friendship and all that you have added to my life through your wonderful and unique Blogs, this past year.

I am not sure where this new year will take us or the world. We live in a fast moving world where things can change very quickly for the good or the not so good. I am an Optimist at heart and I do look for God's Beauty in His Creation that surrounds me each and every day. I see the good and I see the bad in this world but I try to live my life by Faith, Hope and Love, and that is what I pray for each one of you, as we continue this journey of life. May we all embrase it, for life is precious and each one of you are Precious!

I have not had much time to sit and reflect and think about what I wanted to say. I need to get ready for work but want you all to know that you  are in my thoughts and I am looking forward to visiting you all in the New Year.

Have a wonderful and safe time as you celebrate the birth of the New Year. In closing I leave you with this little story called, "The Optimist". Love and Hugs! Dianne:)

The Optimist

The optimist sees the doughnut, the pessimists, the hole.

                                           Quote by: McLandburgh Wilson

'

Their is a story of identical twins. One was a hope-filled optimist." Everything is coming up roses!" he would say. The other twin was a sad and hopeless pessimist. He thought that Murphy, as in Murphy's Law, was an optimist. The worried parents of the boys brought them to the local psychologist.

He suggested to the parents a plan to balance the twins' personalities. "On their next birthday, put them in separate rooms to open their gifts. Give the pessimist the best toys you can afford, and give the optimist a box of manure." The parents followed these instructions and carefully observed the results.

When they peeked in on the pessimist, they heard him audibly complaining, " I don't like the color of this computer... I'll bet this calculator will break... I don't like the game... I know someone who's got a bigger toy car than this..."

Tiptoeing across the corridor, the parents peeked in and saw their little optimist gleefully throwing the manure up in ther air. He was giggling, "You can't fool me! Where there is this much manure, there's got to be a pony!"

Hope this year is kind to you all!  Blessings! Dianne :)

A Gift Of Love

Christmas is a gift of Love

that can't be bought or sold -

It's ours just for the asking,

and it's worth far more than gold ...

And this priceless gift of Christmas

is within the reach of all -

The rich, the poor, the young, the old,

the greatest and the small ...

So take God's Christmas gift of Love -

reach out and you receive -

And the only payment that God asks

is just that you believe.

Written by Helen Steiner Rice

I hope you are all warm and comfy and safe on this cold and stormy Night as a major storms hits many areas across Canada and United States of America.

I also hope to find you all well and free from all the colds and flu that has been going round.

I myself have just recouperated from a nasty cold and flu that knocked me down for a little over a week.

I am back to work and preparing for The Christmas Season as I am sure you all are as well.

As busy as we all get this time of year, my deepest hope and desire is that I stay focused on The Reason for the Season and what Christmas is all about.

Christmas is as much about receiving as it is about giving. Some may think that is selfish and backwards to the True Meaning Of Christmas. But when you really think about it, God Gave us His Son and He wants each one of us to Receive , His Gift Of Love . That's what it is all about.

Yes! Lets celebrate Jesus Birthday and Give and Receive from God and from those we Love and Cherish. Lets also go beyond and Love our Neigbors and those we meet by chance.

I share from my heart this night and I wish each and every one who reads this and those who don't a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year.

I hope to be back between now and Christmas but if something happens that I don't, just know that you are in my thoughts and prayers .

I also want to thank all of you who visit my space and leave your comments and input and all those wonderful photos and graphics you decorate my guestbook with. You all brighten my space and my life.

Your Friend Dianne :)

Dec.19th/09

I am back and doing much better. Thankyou for your thoughtfulness and well wishes. This blog was never ment to be about me . It is ment to be about Jesus, " The Savior of the world",  to all who believe and receive Him. There was no room for Him in the inn but we can make room for Jesus in our hearts.

Hope you all are doing well as we prepare to celebrate "The Christmas Season" ( Jesus' Birthday), and soon to bring in the New Year.

All the Best to you and your families.

A New Year In The Journey Of Life

 

November At The Pond_ Remnants Of First Snowfall

The Pond By The Bay

This photo was taken a year ago at the pond by The Bay, which is right across from My Special Place. Those who know me well know what I am talking about. Some of my fondest moments in 2009 were along the waterfront trail which I so often shared through my photos and writing in my blogs.

This past year has been good in so many ways. Yes there were many times when I didn’t no what was around the corner on my path. The road on my journey in the past year was sometimes smooth and other times it was pretty rough. There were disappointments and there were times of rejoicing. There were times of sadness and joy. There were times of stress and times of relaxation. And I could go on and on.

In the last year or so I thought I was going to loose both my mom and my dad. My mom and dad both recovered and are doing okay at the moment even though they both have major health issues. God seen us through this past year and also Blessed us in so many ways.

I am so thankful that I never walk alone on my journey of life. The one who gave me life, never left me. My Lord and Creator walks with me daily. Some would say He is a crutch and that I am strong enough to do it on my own. Maybe I am or maybe I’m not, but I am not about to try. I have done both, but the journey is much more pleasant and easy with The Lord in my heart and by my side. I know that if the time comes when I am too weary along life’s Journey, He will carry me.

So I will reflect on this past year and then say goodbye. I will not wish it away as life is too short and the years tend to fly by. I am thankful for God’s provision and all His Blessings He bestowed upon me and my family and friends this past year. I will continue to walk in His Grace for the remainder of this year and the one to come and as many years as He gives me on this earth.

So bring on the New Year. I have no great expectations , nor New Year’s Resolutions. Come what may, I will continue to walk with Jesus and put my trust in Him alone. He is my Rock and Salvation.

I fully expect the road to be smooth in places and very rough in places as well. I am happy and looking forward as I continue along life’s Journey as I welcome another year of my life. Thank you for being a part of my life and being my friend. That is one of the great joys in my life. To have friends and family. I am truly Blessed.

Best Wishes to All of you my Friends for A Happy and Healthy New Year, filled with Faith, Hope, Love, Peace and so much more. May God pour His Grace upon each and every one of you.

I will finish this blog with this Poem.

Love and Hugs

Dianne :)

A New Year With The Lord

A new year is about to unfold
With new opportunities to explore
Doors will open for new experiences
New adventures with the Lord
Remember not the former things
The things of this past year
The Lord will do new things in us
Much more than we are aware
For He will make a way for us
As we put our trust in Him
And He will guide our every step
By His presence we have within
What God has placed within our hearts
We find we’ll be able to do
If we look for the opportunities
We’ll see the door to go through
We mustn’t let anything hold us back
But rise up and take our place
And be all that God wants us to be
With a fresh touch of His grace

A Mother

 

A Mother

 

After 17 years of marriage, my wife wanted me to
take another woman out to dinner and a movie. She
said, 'I love you, but I know this other woman loves
you and would love to spend some time with you.'
* * *
The other woman that my wife wanted me to visit
was my MOTHER, who has been alone for 20 years,
but the demands of my work and my two boys had
made it possible to visit her only occasionally.
* * *
That night I called to invite her to go out for
dinner and a movie.
* * *
'What's wrong, aren't you well,' she asked?
* * *
My mother is the type of woman who suspects that a
late night call or a surprise invitation is a sign
of bad news.
* * *
'I thought it would be pleasant to spend some
time with you,' I responded. 'Just the two of us.'
She thought about it for a moment, and then said,
'I would like that very much.'
* * *
That Friday after work, as I drove over to pick

her up I was a bit nervous. When I arrived at her
house, I noticed that she, too, seemed to be nervous
about our date. She waited in the door. She had

curled her hair and was wearing the
dress that she had worn to celebrate her last
Birthday on November 19th.
* * *
She smiled from a face that was as radiant as an
Angel's. 'I told my friends that I was going to go
out with my son, and they were impressed,' she said,
as she got into that new white van. 'They can't

wait to hear about our date'.
* * *
We went to a restaurant that, although not
elegant, was very nice and cozy. My mother took my
arm as if she were the First Lady. After we sat
down, I had to read the menu. Her eyes could only
read large print. Half way through the entries, I
lifted my eyes and saw Mom sitting there staring at
me. A nostalgic smile was on her lips. 'It was I
who used to have to read the menu when you were
small,' she said. 'Then it's time that you relax and
let me return the favour,' I responded.
* * *
During the dinner, we had an agreeable

conversation- -nothing extraordinary but catching up
on recent events of each other's life. We talked so
much that we missed the movie.
* * *
As we arrived at her house later, she said,

'I'll go out with you again, but only if you let me
invite you.' I agreed.
* * *
'How was your dinner date ?'

asked my wife when I got home.
'Very nice. Much more so than I could have imagined,'

I  answered.
* * *
A few days later, my mother died of a massive
heart attack. It happened so suddenly that I didn't
have a chance to do anything for her.
* * *
Some time later, I received an envelope with a
copy of a restaurant receipt from the same place
mother and I had dined. An attached note said: 'I
paid this bill in advance. I wasn't sure that I
could be there; but nevertheless, I paid for two

plates - one for you and the other for your wife.
You will never know what that night meant for me.

I love you, son.'
* * *
At that moment, I understood the importance of
saying in time: 'I LOVE YOU' and to give our loved
ones the time that they deserve. Nothing in life is
more important than your family. Give them the time
they deserve, because these things cannot be put off
till 'some other time.'
* * *

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Somebody said it takes about six weeks to get back
to normal after you've had a baby.... somebody
doesn't know that once you're a mother,

'normal' is  history.
* * *
Somebody said you learn how to be a mother by
instinct .. somebody never took a three-year-old shopping.

* * *
Somebody said being a mother is boring .......
somebody never rode in a car driven by a teenager

with a driver's permit.
Somebody said if you're a 'good' mother,

your child will 'turn out good'....

somebody thinks a child comes with
directions and a guarantee.
* * *
Somebody said you don't need an education to be a
mother.... somebody never helped a fourth grader
with his math.
* * *
Somebody said you can't love the second child as
much as you love the first .... somebody doesn't
have two children.
* * *
Somebody said the hardest part of being a mother
is labour and delivery....

somebody never watched her 'baby' get on the bus

for the first day of  kindergarten ...
or on a plane headed for military 'boot camp.'
* * *
Somebody said a mother can stop worrying after her
child gets married....somebody doesn't know that
marriage adds a new son or daughter-in-law to a
mother's heartstrings.
* * *
Somebody said a mother's job is done when

her last child leaves home....
somebody never had grandchildren.
* * *
Somebody said your mother knows you love her, so
you don't need to tell her....

somebody isn't a mother.

A friend sent this too me and it touched my heart and I wanted to share it with you all.

My heart goes out to all who have lost a parent or both and I am sorry if this causes you pain. This is a very sad and lonely time of the year for so many who have lost loved ones. I have lost two brothers and miss them very much. My mom and dad are still with us. Steve has lost both his mom and dad.

Lets not take our families for granted. Tell someone close to you that you love them and how special they are. Spend time with them for we know not what tomorrow may bring.

Love and Hugs to you my friends, Dianne:)

Autumn Spender

 
 
 
"Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower."- Albert Camus
 
 
 
 

"Even if something is left undone,

everyone must take the time to sit and watch the leaves turn."-Elizabeth Lawrence

 

 

"I am lost in this moment of time,

as I gaze on such spender and Peace floods my soul." - Dianne (dsphotocats)

 

 

My point of view as seen through my lens.

 

 

A fallen leaf is nothing more than a summers wave goodbye. - Author Unknown

 

 

"Summer is but a memory and Autumn is a rainbow of colors"- Dianne (dsphotocats)

 

 

As I drove home it started to rain and I pulled over and was in awe of what I seen.

I had my polarize filter on my lens,

and so the colors of this double rainbow are very vivid and exactly what I seen through my lens.

I hope you enjoy my view through my lens but I know you couldn't possibly enjoy them as much

as I did capturing them.  I was truly Blessed on Saturday as I finally was able to get  out with my camera.

When I am out with my camera all the concerns of life melt away. It is like medicine for what ails me! :)

Oh on a lighter and funnier note. When I was taking the photos of the rainbow I was so excited that I  fell

backwards into a shallow ditch with water in it. My camera didn't get wet but my butt did. I got up and

laughed at myself and went on taking pictures. Photography is a passion of mine and I thank God for the eyes

to see. When I look through my lens I can't help but praise God for all He has made and I am thankful as I continue

to walk in His Grace.

Have a wonderful and Blessed Week

Thinking of you all!

Walk With Me

I am going for a long walk without camera in hand. Do you want to come along? I feel compelled. I feel drawn as I walk on , the cool breeze caressing my face, and my hair is tossed here and there. It gives me a sense of freedom. Not a worry or care as I walk on.

I see green blowing in the wind and clouds of various contrast scurrying by up above. The trees are whispering as the wind slithered through their leaves and branches. I hear the sound of my feet hitting the hard concrete sidewalk as I walk. There are kids sitting in the school yard as I pass by, laughing and having fun. Makes me think back to when I was that age. I hear and see the faces of my friends of my youth in my memory as I stroll by. As I look to my left I see cars speeding by and hear the sounds of busyness all around me.

I am now entering Memorial Park and hear silence as I sit but for a moment on a park bench. I am looking around and I see large memorial stones with names of those who served our Country in time of war and who died fighting for freedom. I see wreaths of poppies and crosses and the words carved in stone that read, “Lest We Forget”. I have a moment of silence and pray for their families and those who this day are fighting for our freedom and others. God be mindful of them and their families. I thank God for them and I thank God for the freedom I have in this great Country of Canada . I thank God for the freedom I have through His Son, Jesus Christ who laid down His life for all mankind. I am now leaving this place with the pond in sight.

I hear the sound of sand and stones beneath my feet as I enter this peaceful and calm sanctuary. Oh , I could stay here for hours but today only for a little while. I see green everywhere, green, even the pond is green with Lilly pads and life. Birds singing, butterflies fluttering,  Dragonflies hovering over the marsh; and me with no camera, but I feel such peace and  I am smiling with contentment. I love the solitude of this place. The warmth of the sun wrapping itself around me and the warmth of God’s Son as I feel His presence so near. I pause and savour the moment as I once again sit long enough to write. I am now overlooking the river. I see cattails , wildflowers and bees. There is too much to describe and I must move on.

I am following the river along the path. There is a conflict between the sounds of nature and the sounds of  busyness of the city I live in. I choose to listen to the rushing river and it soothes my soul.

The storm clouds are moving in . Isn’t that part of life. I will carry on my walk as long as I can.  I am walking against the wind and feel the concrete beneath my feet as I continue on the path. The river and nature is on my right and the noise and traffic of the city is on my left. I am following the river as it races down stream. There is a family of ducks with three baby chicks resting on a rock down below. I stop to admire their beauty and once again I smile.

There are blue skies ahead of me now and grey clouds above and behind me as I move on down the trail. Ah the sun just peaked through the dark clouds. There is hope as I continue as I walk under the bridge. There is light and shades of grey and darkness. I love the sound of the rushing water. The sun is starting to break up the darkness up above.

A Blue Heron just caught a fish and again I am smiling as I take a mental picture that will linger in my memory . I am loving this.

I look to my left and I see city architecture of condos , stores and church steeples. As I stop to write I see a Blue Damsel flying by and it landed on a rock at my feet. There are people walking and talking, biking and rollerblading and such. I smile and some of them smile back. There are a few people fishing as I continue on.

I looked up once again and this time I see a ring around the sun that looks like a partial rainbow and a huge dark cloud passing by and once again it is sunny.I think the storm clouds went around me. It is extremely dark to my left as I walk along the path  and down town is on my left side as I follow the river along the path that leads to the Bay of Quinte’s south side, across from City Hall. Those of you who have read my blogs and seen my photos over the last year may have an idea where I am on the trail as I describe my walk on this day. Beauty surrounds me as I see flowers galore and exotic grasses planted by city workers.

I stop to watch the ducks flying by and landing in the water. The dark clouds are all over the city to the east as I am on the west side traveling south. I look down and see the water lilies lying next to peoples litter. That saddens me as I look and see a garbage can in plain view. I see roses and all kinds of coloured lilies and a transport truck on the bridge up above where I fell just a couple of weeks ago while riding my bike. Instead of going over the bridge , I am going under it.

I have reached the Bay where the river and it emerges and am now at the Harbour. There are ripples in the channel forming waves and now the storm clouds surround me but every once in awhile the sun shines through. There is now a very strong northwest wind as I move on. There are many boats in the harbour and I hear all kinds of tinkering sounds as they are blown in the wind. The church bells are ringing, I hear sirens and a plane just flew over. I hear birds singing the wind blowing as the sounds merge between nature and  that of the city.

Oh my oh my, I see another duck family with 4 cute little baby chicks and yes part of me wishes I had my camera but it was not meant to be . You ask me , where am I going with all of this ? I don’t know, it is just something I felt I needed to do. Maybe it is my way of getting away from it all. I just don’t know but I am enjoying it emencly. I look around and see, hear,feel and smell all the beauty that surrounds me and it is good to be alive.

I look around and see many Canadian flags here today in my travels and it makes me smile as I love my Country and yes I am a proud Canadian.

I am off the main trail heading south on the side walk toward the Bayshore  trail and when I get to the path I will be walking east. I hear a train as I walk by the Boathouse Restaurant which has the best fish and chip in town. I can smell it and almost taste it. If I look back , I can see the city and if I look ahead I can see the pier by the bay.

Once again I am surrounded by dark clouds and begin to wonder if I will escape a storm. Just then the sun peaks through as if watching over me.

What I see and hear next is not pleasant. They are working on a new building project and have cut down many trees near the waterfront and all I can hear is loud , intruding sounds of men at work with their drills and heavy equipment. There is a hill of dirt that obstructs my view of the Bay. I will continue on until I can reach the water front trail that I enjoy so much.

I am starting to tire as I take a quick break overlooking the Beautiful Bay Of Quinte. This is where I like to bring my mom . This is where she took my profile picture on my space. I have so many happy memories here of  family picnics ,etc. I think of my dad who will never be able to drive down here again as he isn’t well . I must keep going. 

I just called my wonderful husband so he won’t worry about me as I have now been walking for two and a half hours. I am not sure how much further I will go. Maybe I will just stop and be quiet and think for awhile.  Well it is getting darker and the wind is picking up but wait as I look up there is a silver lining and the sun comes out but once again.

I see a turtle sitting on a log , looking up as if praising its Maker. He doesn’t seem the least bit concerned that I was only a few feet away from him. I am in such a peaceful place here on the trail. It is as if the trees are watching over me and sheltering me from the wind and the sun is following me and looking over my shoulder once again. I am going to go a little further and turn north and head home. My sweet man is working on supper and I am getting hungry. I need to taste something and then I will have put all the  senses God has given me to good use.

As I walk along the trail with the trees on both sides of me the water on the shore is calm . As I look our further the water is dark and rough , not a boat in sight.

I have reached “The Pond” across from the Bay where I have taken so many of my photos from season to season. Strait ahead of me is the bench that is my Special Place, where I have taken so many of my Sunrise Pictures. I love to sit there and reflect and that is where I will end by days journey and then head home.

I just looked up and behind me and the sky looks like it is ready to fall. I need to get out of here and hope and pray I make it home. I am walking quickly through the streets going north and it will take me at least  a half hour to get home.

I am now almost home . I thought sure I was going to be caught in the middle of a thunderstorm but it kept going east as I was heading north and now the sun has once again come shining through the clouds. Thank you Jesus for watching over me and being with me each step of the way today and everyday. I feel safe and know that God has been with me all the time.

I am now just five minutes from my home and a thought has come to me. The big scary clouds came over my calm , peaceful place on the bench because I wasn’t meant to stay there. I need to move on and live my life each day, trusting in God through the threats of the storms of life ; and at times I will be in the midst of the storms of life, I must live my life trusting in the Giver Of Life. I must live my life by Faith and not by sight. One day I will see Him , The Giver Of Life but for now I must live my life , for it is a gift to love and cherish and be thankful for .

I am now home and it is here that I close after walking for three and a half  hours. Thank you for walking with me this day Lord Jesus  and thank you you all who decided to take this long walk with me today. It took me almost as long to type this out. :)

In closing I just want you to know that I took this long walk a little over a week ago and just got around to sharing it with you this day. Hope you enjoyed it,

Love and Hugs to all who walked with me this day. If you read this you truly are my friend for this is long and I am not  a writer of sorts.Thank you windows live writer for being my editor.

I did not know!

So hug your zebra with all your might.

If you don’t have a zebra,

Then hug the one your with.

If you are all alone,

then hug the first person or zebra you see!

Or give yourself a big old hug,

and say I love me.

You say oh my gosh

I could never do that.

What would people say?

Can you imagine that?

You could always send a hug,

to all your Space friends,

Or go out and find a zebra.

No matter what you decide to do

or who you hug .

Have a wonderful day!

Poem written on Jan. 20th,2009 by Dianne dsphotocats

This photo was taken by me last Oct. at a zoo near Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I just happened to be at the right place at the right time to capture this very tender moment between Mother and son.

I woke up at 5 A.M this morning and had this silly, light hearted poem in my head. I hope it has made you smile. I have had and will continue to have a very busy day and must now run.  Have a great day one and all .

Hugs  Dianne  :)
