IT'S TUESDAY AND MAY IT BE




Welcome to Tuesday in my little corner of the world and it is truly a beautiful day which started as a very cool morning with heavy dew on the grass and is now developing into something spectacular.
How often we are so busy that we do not take the time to look around us and see the beauty that is there constantly  - I have walked around the garden this morning and found a rose in bloom with dew drops, a spider web, parsley and spinach flourishing.  Mint - not doing so well but I always have trouble growing mint.  Tiny pink flowers in pots along the driveway smiling at me.
May it be that you find beauty in your world today.

"May it be an evening star 
Shines down upon you 
May it be when darkness falls 
Your heart will be true"

Here in Australia we are now on the fifth day of an Easter/Anzac Day holiday period and I am having trouble keeping track of the days - so I keep reminding myself that today is Tuesday.  Another day in a beautiful life that is mine.  It has been a strange weekend - I did have tentative plans to do some sewing, and visit the river and the park but they haven't materialized.  I did have a lovely family time on Thursday evening, a movie and dinner with friends on Friday, some shopping on Saturday and meeting with Liz on Sunday - so although it has been busy and lovely I don't seem to have achieved very much.  I have done some reading and watched my favourite program "Spooks", eaten chocolate and listened to beautiful music.

May it be that there is sunshine in your day today and you are able to enjoy some time with family and friends, take a walk and enjoy that sunshine.

The world is getting excited about the Royal Wedding on Friday and so much preparation has been made and these plans are coming to fruition and if we think planning a wedding takes a lot of effort - think again if the Groom is the future King.

I have been thinking of all the sewing, baking, floral arrangements, music arrangements, bell ringing, crowd control and souvenir manufacturing that has taken place and how often these procedures would have been rehearsed and how nimble the fingers of milliners and dressmakers would have been.  There would be tired eyes from sewing, sore feet from marching and drill work.  I think of the beautiful horses that will be involved in the pomp and pageantry of the day - how much training has gone in there and then the grooming will be a monumental task.   They will be groomed and brushed until they shine.

I shall certainly be watching this special event on television and shall be inspired by the discipline and majesty of the day, thrilled by the beautiful music and enchanted by the little children involved as attendants on this special day.

May it be .............. a day of sunshine - the weather does make a difference.    May it be......... a time of safety and security in a troubled world.  May it be a time of sentiment and love. May it be...............for you a time of joy and celebration.

May it be that you have good health and an easy path to walk.   May it be that you find joy in the little things around you - a conversation with a child, reminiscing with an older family member, looking at some old photographs.

May it be that this Tuesday is a special day for you - a day when you are "at home with yourself" and you find contentment.

"I am grateful for celebrations that bring me joy."


"May it be an evening star 
Shines down upon you 
May it be when darkness falls 
Your heart will be true"

Love and hugs and thank you for taking the time to visit and read "the Musings from my Heart."

On this Tuesday, the wedding seems so far away. It is an exciting time for us, so I can't begin to imagine how the poor English are coping.
I hope the Lovely Couple get the time to enjoy this special day and make it their own.

Eagerly awaiting the surprises and first sight of that dress
