I’ve been on vacation. I’d prepared my posts last week as best I could (new photos and poor internet connection notwithstanding). My only task until next week is to rest.
My primary focus this year has been to 1) pray and 2) live in the moment; enough with the incessant what ifs. I’ve honed my edge substantially, and yet this week proved for me to rest and simply be remains a challenge. The closest I get is walking the beautiful countryside.
Today’ relaxation:
“Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and He will give you everything you need.” Matthew 6:33 (NLT)
Beautiful photos Roo xxx

I can’t think why you’d not be able to relax and rejuvenate in that beautiful land. Glorious. Someday…

I’ve lived both in NC and western Colorado. The difference is, the Rockies are majestic, sometimes cruelly so. The Smokies are more “living in” kind of mountains. We lived outside of Asheville on Coldwell Mountain. The Appalachias will live in our hearts until the end of life even though we are now desert dwellers, due to health challenges (both me and my mother).

It is. Even with bears, puma and bobcats peace resides.

I pray the peace of your surroundings will flood your soul. What beautiful mountainscapes! They are so different from mine in NC. These days we don’t see mountains until mid-morning when the fog burns off.

Thank you, Anne. I appreciate prayer through some rough roads ahead. I haven’t been to NC, but the difference between here in the Rockies, and the Cascades, the Blue Mountains and the Sierras is remarkable.

We saw the Rockies last fall and were very impressed. That didn’t diminish my love for our mountains, though.

Truly there’s no place like home, Anne. I hope to experience it myself soon.

We moved to NC two years ago after 50 years on Long Island. I loved the coast , but now it’s time to enjoy mountains. May I ask where you grew up?
