No amount of gold could ever compare, to the gift of love that my son shares.
I've been blind and I couldn't see that all the love I've wanted is right here in front of me.
He gives reason to get through another day.
Maybe it's how he loves me in his special little way.
And when it gets hard for me to sleep at night....
He wraps his little arms around me and says God will make things right!
From sweet gentle touches to his bear hugs and a kiss...
He makes this hell on earth seem more like a peaceful bliss.
That great big kool-aid smile and the twinkle in his eyes....
Every time I look at him it makes me want to cry.
But they're not tears of sorrow; they're tears of pride and joy....
To know that all the love in heaven is wrapped around my little boy.

| ******* Feng Shui decorating utilizes the basic principles of the Chinese philosophy to enhance energy flow and create a positive, harmonious environment. The concepts of this ancient art form that means the way of wind and water can be applied to our living space as well as to every other aspect of our lives.
Minimize Clutter
Clutter and disorganization lead to chaos, both figuratively and literally. Having a living space that is filled with unnecessary things, items that we no longer use, or those that represent our past, greatly inhibit the positive flow of chi, or energy, that is needed to maintain a happy, healthy home life. Being in a cluttered environment tends to create tension and stress, which then permeates into and negatively affects all areas of our lives.
A place for everything, and everything in its place is a good mantra to remember when trying to minimize the disorder in your home. Assign chores to everyone in the house and designate specific areas for shoes, coats, toys, books, mail, important papers, and whatever else that may be cluttering up any of the rooms.
When decorating and trying to maximize space, keep in mind the five main elements of Feng Shui: water, fire, earth, wood, and metal. Each one emits an ever changing invisible energy that is dependent upon its surroundings, the placement the object, and the current level of balance and harmony in the room.
Balance the Home’s Color Scheme
One of the most commonly used Feng Shui decorating tips that masters and beginners alike can easily implement is to balance the color scheme within their surroundings. Although you may enjoy bright, strong colors such as bright reds or oranges, neither are conducive to relaxation or a sense of positive energy. Colors that are overly stimulating tend to add to and create negativity and hectic energy, while more muted tones such as deep maroons or greens heighten feelings of safety and security.
Pastels, blues, creams, and other earth tones are all colors that help to balance a home’s existing energy with their calming, warming effects. The color of the walls are particularly important when it comes to decorating for peace, relaxation, and harmony, as well as the shade of the furniture and carpeting.
Decorate Harmoniously
Lending truth to the statement that less is often more, Feng Shui focuses on keeping a continual flow of energy in the home with the art of carefully positioning our belongings. For rooms that are on the smaller side, avoid busy patterns and furniture or finishes that have reflective surfaces, which tend to add to excessive energy. Instead, try to focus on items with a softer, matte finish to absorb that extra energy, allowing for a more relaxed, harmonious feeling.
Candles are an excellent way to bring a subtle, natural energy flow, as well as soft, relaxing light into your home environment. Choose either unscented or candles that have pleasant aromas with a calming effect such as lavender, vanilla, peach, watermelon, or jasmine.
The home should be viewed as more than just a place to eat, sleep, or get ready for the next day, but also as a personal sanctuary to relax, rejuvenate, and strengthen our inner selves. Feng Shui decorating practices aim to improve the aesthetic appeal of our homes, and also to enhance the overall quality of our lives. |

~♥~ Once upon a time the earth was even more beautiful than it is today. The water was pure and deep, reflecting within itself the sunlight which gave life to all the creatures beneath the waves. The earth was green with many kinds of trees and plants. These gave food and shelter to the birds, the animals, and to all mankind. At night the air was so clear that the starlight gave a glow almost as bright as the moon.
The people of the earth lived close to nature. They understood it and honored it and never took more than what they needed from it. The people lived in peace so they prospered and began to build many nations all around the world according to nature’s climate.
But one day a terrible thing happened. A strange spirit of greed entered the hearts of mankind. People began to be jealous of one another, and they were not satisfied with all the good things they already had. The nations wanted more and more of everything: more land, more water, more resources. They squeezed precious minerals from the earth to build terrible weapons to defend their nations from other, greedier nations. They killed one another. They polluted the air and the water with poisons. Nature began to die. This is called war. War is ugly. It destroys love and hope and peace.
Then one day a magical thing occurred. The birds of the air, the animals of the land, and the creatures beneath the waters came to an agreement: if they were to survive, something would have to be done to stop these wars. Only through peace could their world survive.
“We cannot speak the human language,” they declared, “and mankind can no longer understand ours. We must find among us a symbol of peace so brilliant that all who see it will stop and remember that peace and sharing is beautiful.”
“I am what you need,” said a golden sunflower. “I am tall and bright. My leaves are food for the animals, my yellow petals can turn plain cloth to gold, my seeds are many and are used for food by all living beings. Yet, the seeds I drop upon the ground can take root and I will grow again and again. I can be your symbol of peace.”
All nature rejoiced, and it was decided that the birds would each take one sunflower seed and that they would fly over every nation and plant the seed in the earth as a gift. The seeds took root and grew, and the sunflowers multiplied.
Wherever the sunflowers grew there seemed to be a special golden glow in the air. The people could not ignore such a magical sight.
Soon they began to understand the message of the sunflowers so they decided to destroy all of their terrible weapons and to put an end to the greed and to the fear of war. They chose the sunflower as a symbol of peace and new life for all the world to recognize and understand.
A ceremony was celebrated by planting a whole field of sunflowers. Artists painted pictures of the sunflowers, writers wrote about them, and the people of the world were asked to plant more sunflower seeds as a symbol of remembrance.
All nature rejoiced once more as the golden sunflowers stood tall with their faces turned eastward to the rising sun, then following the sun until it sets in the west.
They gave their goodness to the world so that everyone who sees a sunflower will know that the golden light of peace is beautiful. |
