Buddha's Little Instruction Book

We inter-breathe with the rain forests, we drink from the oceans. They are part of our own body.

Wishing everyone a wonderful Memorial day weekend! Be back on Tuesday!

  1. Hello Lydia,

    what a beautiful butterfly. It is true, we are connected with the earth and drink from its oceans. What we do to the earth we will get back a thousandfold ...
    Wishing you a sunny weekend,
    Eva

  2. Hello Eva, How true that is. I've just returned from my local butterfly exhibit. There were so many beautiful exotic butterflies, they were from Asia and Africa. WOW! I took some great shots of them. I plan on adding those butterfly photos to my next post. I also plan on painting some of them in oils. Have a wonderful weekend.

  4. We are part of the same energy what is in me is in you what is them is in us we are all one our trees are our brothers and sisters. The birds are our family.
    What molecules make a rock are the same that makes us just in different groupings. Let us all celebrate all things and by doing so we celebrate us.
    Have a nice holiday.

  8. Hello Jamerson, There is so much ugliness in the world these days, that I think it's essential for us to find goodness and beauty where ever we can. I find that the prettiest things are found outdoors in nature, whether it be an animal, plant, land, the sky and even insects have there have own unique beauty. Have a great day!

    Hello Dave, Your very right. Everything is connected as a whole in this universe. The more people practice kindness through unconditional love and compassion, the more positive energy there is flowing through the universe, which benefits us all. Have a great day!

    Hello Nabeel, I absolutely love butterflies. I love painting them, because each butterfly looks so different from the next. Their colors and patterns are just so amazing. I never get bored painting butterflies. When my daughter was three, I bought a butterfly kit and we raised painted ladies and then let them go when they reached maturity. One hung out around my flowers for a few days. Have a great day!

    Hello Alison, Thank you! I spent most of my holiday putting in my veggie garden. I always get excited while shopping for my veggies and I end up buying more than I have room for. I then end up sticking lettuce and herbs here and there to make up for it, so I don't have to omit anything. Have a nice day!
