People…
‘Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom’. (Marcel Proust)

Let your love play…
Prayer for today:
Let Your love play upon my voice and rest on my silence.
Let it pass through my heart into all my movements.
Let your love, like stars, shine in the darkness of my sleep and dawn in my awakening.
Let it burn in the flame of my desires and flow in all currents of my own love.
Let me carry Your love in my life as a harp does its music, and give it back to You at last with my life.
Rabindranath Tagore [1861-1941]
The view from my window
I am following the RevGals prompt for today, to post a photograph of something I see everyday. It was an easy choice:
These are the hydrangea bushes in the front garden of the manse. The first picture is their summer colours, the second their current (Autumn) colours. I love these bushes and they never fail to lift my spirits. I walk past them every day from the front door to the car. And I often stand and look at them from my front room window.
I am very fortunate to live in a lovely tree lined street and most of the gardens around me have these bushes too, in many different colours. My next door neighbour has blue and white ones.
“Ever since the creation of the world his eternal power and divine nature, invisible though they are, have been understood and seen through the things he has made.” (Romans 1:20)
Skimming stones
Today, another amazing picture by Brian Johnstone – skimming stones all the way to Ailsa Craig.

Magic
Lovely picture by Brian Johnstone, taken on Prestwick Beach. Wonderful warm summer colours, pity the weather is mainly shades of grey!

Sunday Magic…
Love this picture of Ailsa Craig by Brian Johnstone, beautiful light effects.

On the beach…
“Mellow sunset rays, warming heart and soul, warm hazy summer days doing nothing much at all…” (poetryjoy)
Photo of Ardrossan beach with Arran in the background taken by June Reid, a beautiful sunset after another lovely sunny day.
Home
Returned home to Ayrshire this evening. Back to the land of dependable Broadband!
This picture is of Ardrossan South Beach, taken on Easter Sunday by Mark Wright on his mobile phone.
Loved the image (from Ardrossan & Saltcoats Herald on Facebook).
Smile
The Mentalist is a show I recently caught up with and its one I have enjoyed watching, not least because of Simon Baker (pictured). He has the most amazing smile. And when he smiles, you cannot help smiling too. It is an involuntary response.
Smiling is contagious – be the reason someone smiles today!
