Meaning Makers

Carmi from
 THEMATIC PHOTOGRAPHIC
 offers 
REPETITIVE
as our theme this week.


This theme literally speaks
 to what's happening in my life. 
(probably your life as well)


Please enjoy my perception of
Repetitive
 it arrives from a place very long ago 

Where I cherish bringing spirit and magic throughout our family traditions

I won't count the number of Christmas trees I've decorated so far in my life, just know this is a repetitive thing I do.

Let's roll out our inspirations!

This may be mostly repetitive, but there are changes too.

and as Thomas Moore quoted

"To live with a high degree of artfulness
 means to attend to the small things 
that keep the soul engaged
 in whatever we are doing,
 and it is the very heart of soul-making."

The meeting (and shaking hands) of one painted nutcracker to a newly constructed nutcracker ready for paint.

MEANING MAKERS

"We can only see half of anything.

The other half is the meaning 
we give to anything we see."

The meaning these charming memory makers offer
repetitively
are memories of yesterday, very long ago.

"There is not one big cosmic meaning for all.

There is only the meaning we all give to our lives,

an individual meaning."

Anais Nin

I love sharing 
My very own meaning.

"It is the nature of things to be drawn

to the very experiences

that will spoil our innocence

transform our lives

and give us necessary complexity and depth."

Thomas Moore

"Off to the paint shop Nutcracker?"

"Usually, the main problem with life conundrums
 is that we don't bring to them enough imagination."
Thomas Moore

"The world is full of magic things, 
patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper."
W.B. Yeats

"If you are a dreamer come in

If you are a dreamer a wisher a liar

A hoper a pray-er a magic-bean-buyer

If you're a pretender come sit by my fire

For we have some flax golden tales to spin.

Come in!

Come in!

Shel Silverstein

"Anything is possible. Anything can be."

Take good care of you

and I'm wishing happy decorating and festivity making for all!

Thanks for sharing this time with me and saying hello.
