Tree Branches – North Park Lake – March 2018 – Pittsburgh, PA
Branching Out.
You will
never know
how far
you can reach…
how many things
you can do…
how many lives
you can touch…
until you allow yourself
to branch out.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
February Morning – Mars, PA 2018
Look Inside.
The tiniest drop of water
hanging on the edge of the limb
that might not last
longer than a few moments
holds a glimpse of life.
It tells a story.
Look inside.
Ignore the blurred surroundings.
Squint hard.
Look closely.
Search deep
into this beautiful thing.
Search deep…
inside of You.
Like the tiny drop of water
that reflects the trees trunk and limbs.
Look inside your heart
to see what branches inside of you.
What is growing and stretching
and feeding your soul.
What is reaching
to grasp your happiness.
Look inside
at the beauty of you.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
Daily Stretches.
Stretch your muscles
to move about with ease.
Stretch your eyes open wide
to see the beauty in this world.
Stretch your mind
to explore new experiences.
Stretch your wallet
to give to those in need.
Stretch your heart
to give more love.
Stretch your imagination
to create art or music or beautiful words.
Stretch your arms open
to embrace in a hug.
Stretch!
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
Reach High.
Reach high,
for stars
lie hidden
in your soul.
Dream deep,
for every dream
precedes
the goal.
-Pamela Vaull Starr
Are you reaching?
Are you stretching?
Are you seeking?
those stars that lie hidden in your soul?
those dreams that make you smile?
those dreams that bring you joy?
Keep reaching.
Keep dreaming.
Create your joy!
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
