Critters, Candles and Chocolate

Welcome to 
SATURDAY'S CRITTERS








Just a wee few of the many furry friends of mine.

I cannot even imagine who or where I'd be without my furry friends.
Words will never adequately explain the true meaning they have for me.

So many meanings to the candles in our lives.



Every candle has it's own meaning.


A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.
James Keller




My mother said she grew up with lit candles on her Christmas tree!

There are two ways of spreading light:
to be the candle
or the mirror that reflects it.
Edith Wharton

It seems my life can be summed up by 
Critters, Candles and Chocolate.


Happiness. Simple as a glass of chocolate 
or torturous as the heart. Bitter. Sweet. Alive.
Joanne Harris

So what are your thoughts on spreading some joy into the lives of others?
 A piece of chocolate or perhaps a hearty hello face to face?


Does social media dictate your every move?
Actually ignoring the person right in front of you hasn't just begun.
But we can end it, or at least slow it down.



Let's go live with- our words!
Words are only painted fire;
a look is the fire itself.
Mark Twain




They Brighten our world with their presence.


No one is useless in this world
 who lightens the burdens of another.
 Charles Dickens




Everyday I try to be in communication
with the universe
in an unconscious way.
Paulo Coelho


Never sell yourself short.
Always believe in yourself.




Every year during our Winter Walk I appreciate more and more the drivers and their horses for braving what always seems to be the coldest or snowiest evenings.
We salute you!

No matter what he does
every person on earth 
plays a central roll 
in the history of the world.
And normally he doesn't know it.
Paulo Coelho

I surely appreciate your visits here
take good care of you!

I love your friends, Karen! My mum talked about them lighting the candles on the tree and then dancing around it! Scary to think of it now. A touching post in many ways.

A big yes on the impact the furred ones have on our lives (and the huge space they claim in our heart).
I am a mirror rather than a candle (but have a weakness for chocolate).
Thank you, as always, for another beauty and wisdom packed post.

I stopped eating chocolate all together (for me, it affected my heart rate)...now, white chocolate, without caffeine, works

I love candles & their reflection.

A decent initiative thought is to connect with your representatives in significant discussion about work. An extraordinary method to begin is to make a rundown of things that especially intrigue you, and take a couple of moments every day to ask representatives their assessments on these points. You will frame significant connections, and may pick up something simultaneously.

play bazaar If you need to hide a spare key, do so in a safe manner. Putting it under your doormat, in a plant hanging by the door, in your garage hung on the wall or in the mailbox are all poor choices. Instead, bury it somewhere and mark it in a non-descript way.
