Life at the Wee Cottage in the Woods.....Our memories can be a garden of delight as well as a garden of pain. Some days we walk through this garden and stop and enjoy those memories that bring us joy...that bring a smile to our hearts. Some days we pause at those moments that are painful...at the memories of things that have hurt us. Together these memories make up the tapestry of our life woven in rich colors as well as subdued colors. The overall effect is of who we are in this journey of life.
The purpose of this blog is to capture the garden of my life with photographs, inspirational quotes, stories of life, recipes of friends and family shared, and my own thoughts. This site is my legacy in my words and photos............. |

Perspective
With faith and gratitude, I achieve spiritual perspective.
Thursday, July 18, 2019
An artist creates depth in a painting by using visual perspective, making objects smaller so they will appear more distant. On the canvas of my life, difficult circumstances sometimes loom large in the foreground. Yet when I put them in perspective, their influence diminishes.
I achieve perspective with faith that all things work together for good and with gratitude that each challenge is an opportunity to grow in spiritual awareness. I have a purpose higher than simply solving life’s frustrations. Seeing the big picture of my life helps soften the upsetting events and expands the delights. With faith and gratitude, I put it all in spiritual perspective.
I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you.—Job 42:5
