Although it's my natural inclination, I've noticed that, for whatever reason, I've been feeling much more introspective as of late. Often, throughout the day, it seems like there are always certain people and ideas that drift to the surface in my thoughts and then linger there.
I think of my kids, wondering and worrying about their futures, hoping that I'm helping to lead them in the direction that God has planned for them. I think of myself and my dreams, praying that I will accomplish all that I want for my life before the days quickly pass. And I think of my family, friends and all of you too...thankful for the wonderful moments and words that everyone brings to my world.
Anyway, with that in mind, I just wanted to say a little hello, wish you all a very happy weekend and let you know that I'm thinking of you :)

What a beautiful way to say hello...thank you!
ReplyDeleteTricia, your photos
ReplyDeletenever fail to inspire,
as does your beautiful
heart. I think the winter,
especially, brings out
introspection ~ and
it's good to go with
the flow : )
Happy Weekend, sweet
friend!

So interesting, I have been feeling the same way. I Feel as if I am growing up in some sort of way and realizing that I must make changes in my life.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your inspiring words and bringing beauty to our world through your blog.
May you have a lovely weekend.

You are such a dedicated mom. With God at the helm you have no worries. Love your photo. Have a great weekend. Great to see you.
ReplyDeleteLovely! Thank you to you too, you are an inspiration and I am so glad our paths have crossed. Have a great weekend...

We cannot help but think of our children and their future in this uncertain world. Just need to cling to God and do his will.
ReplyDeleteLove how you do a selective focus. I always forget how to set my camera for it.
Beautiful photo. Beautiful thoughts.
ReplyDeleteYou "always" send a "rosy note"
Always Beautiful......I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteHi Tricia,
ReplyDeleteGlad you popped in the say hello. :) I hope you have a lovely weekend!
Just googled selective focus and a whole bunch of tutorials tell you how to do in in Photoshop. Is that how you do it, or do you set your camera up for single focus. I have a NIkon D90.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, loved your "hello"! :-)
ReplyDeleteSo delicate!...
ReplyDeleteNice weekend;)
oh yes, i can relate, and you will see as well should you pop over today. the season, yes. and also the fact that whether i own up to it or not, i am a poet. always have been. so i'm wired for such internal journeys.
ReplyDeletehugs to you.

Feliz fin de semana y me encantan tus fotografías!! Un abrazo enorme.
ReplyDeleteWonderful words Tricia, thanks for sharing your thoughts....it gives me something to think about.
ReplyDeleteWish you a happy weekend too! Hugs, Ingrid
Such beautiful words to go with your gorgeous photo. I love your style.
ReplyDeleteA lovely photo and lovely words to go with it! Wishing you a happy weekend too :)
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you sweet lady.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend and hope the snow stays away from your area.
ReplyDeleteHeloo Happy Weekend...with love Janice Pretty photo..
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post. Have a wonderful weekend too.
ReplyDeleteI have always thought that you were a rather introspective person, a "deep" soul. We are alike in many ways...I know sometimes I think too much! Keep a close eye on those thoughts, they usually tell us what we need to hear.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely weekend, dear.
XO,
Jane
So happy whenever you post! Your sweet spirit shows in each beautiful photo. :)
ReplyDeleteLovely words and images. I believe introspection is a gift, helping you understand your feelings and others as well. My favorite moments are moments of quiet introspection. And mothers are made to wonder and worry about their children... Yet with God's guidance we can lead them down their own path.
ReplyDeleteDearest sweet Tricia, thanks so much for sharing your thoughts with us!! This is such a beautiful photo and i love that green cup & saucer! Happy weekend and love to you!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful photo. Thanks so much for sharing it with us along with your thoughts. I do hope you are enjoying your weekend.
ReplyDeleteHugs~
This is so sweet, Tricia...thank you for sharing your thoughts and this beautiful photo! Hope you don't get too much snow there! XO
ReplyDeleteSo serene and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBlessings~
Hi Tricia! always lovely to hear from you and to see your beautiful work! Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly why we love you so, Tricia! ♥ Have a blessed Sunday, my sweet friend!

I've missed your posts, Tricia! It's so nice to see some of your beauty again. (I think you need to release some of your worries ....Let go, let God. Of course, I always need to be reminded of that--and my sons are 31 and 33, respectively. I find myself saying, "If only..." "If I were doing this again...")
ReplyDeleteYou sound pensive as well...
ReplyDeleteBrenda
Hello Miss Erin...Always happy to see a new post from you.
ReplyDeleteLove your images...
ReplyDeleteI guess it comes with age,
I am also beginning to think of my son's future and how I can help him be a better man.
What a beautiful post this is, Tricia.
ReplyDeleteI honestly have to say, that even though my kids are much older than yours, I still find myself doing the same. It's all a part of the Mom experience, and although sometimes it includes a lot of worry, I wouldn't have it any other way.
I hope you're having a wonderful weekend.
xo.
I think the time of year has something to do with our inner thoughts...being a quiet time of the year tends to bring us to more thoughtful moments. A lovely post, Tricia.
ReplyDeleteLovely Post, Tricia.
ReplyDeleteLovely photo.
Hope you had a good weekend too.
Kelly
You have a beautiful way with words and as always with your camera too. Your words express the thoughts which so often pass through my mind too.....
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind thoughts.
A lovely post, Tricia. And gorgeous photos too. :)
ReplyDeleteI hear ya and I feel similar. It is this time of year I think ~ daily journaling helps me. I know once spring is here and I can out and about at the garden centers and working on my garden and taking my kiddos out to the parks, my massive intropecting will vanish, lol. :) Hope you are having a good Monday! It sure was hard to get out of bed at 6am today.. hee hee!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful post, Tricia! I adore your photos!
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day, Tricia. :)
ReplyDeleteHello sweet Tricia, came by to wish you a belated Valetine's day!! I hope it was wonderful and full to the brim with love! Happy weekend and love to you!
ReplyDeleteHi!! I'm new here and I must say I love your work..so inspiring. The sort of photographs I like to do. Makes me want to grab my camera and take pictures again. I'm also into photography and been on and off for sometime. Hoping to get back into it this year. Feel free to visit my blog when you can. I try to post as regular as possible.
ReplyDeleteAll the best.
