Good Monday Morning!

I know...you think ol' Z's going soft because I just came off my Sunday Faith Blog and now I'm posting another pretty picture, right? But, I found it so pretty and inspirational that I had to share it with you...

Remember this kind of beauty when things are getting you down, and geeeeeZ, can things get us down these days. We can work to create our own beautiful things around us. And the working is as good as its fruit. I wish you a great week.........


and YES...I'll come out fighting in a few hours with hard hitting politics/culture....you think I'd given UP!? FAT CHANCE! :-)

No worries here :-)

Good morning Z! Sometimes going soft gives us the courage to get back out here and fight again. We all need a reprieve to shore up our gusto to get back out here and tell it like it is.

I can be draining. Be soft for an hour or two - it will do you good. Be good to yourself.

At the end of the day you will be surprised just how much it enables you to write even better and give it your ALL!

Shalom xoxo

"I can be draining"; I meant "It" not "I" - sorry for the typo, still not had my second cup of java! lol!

Z said...

Thanks, Morgan....I'm on my way to breakfast but it's still a tad early here!
Saint...coming by your place! Thanks for commenting.

Chuck; you know me too well :-)
I always look forward to your excellent posts and am stopping by in a few minutes...thanks.

Zeeva, that's EXACTLY why I did this post.....we do need courage, and to realize that getting our minds off politics and culture for a while is important, healthy! Just planting one flowering plant into soil can lift the spirits! (I sure do need it these days.........)
Your GOSSIP post is inspiring and I recommend it to everyone.

Something about the....green makes me feel good for some reason.

Z said...

Hey, Steve...great comment.
I'm hoping this little post does a lot of that to my commenters!

Z-I'm taking a flower arranging class at my local CC--an arrangement a week and they are beautiful to behold for the entire week until the next class and I do need them at this time !...:-)

Speaking of beautiful...I came home from work this morning and I spent some time with my beautiful wife, daughter and son.

Life is good!

elmers brother said...

Where do you get these lovely pictures?

It's pouring rain here in the D.C. area.

Pat Jenkins said...

we like the "soft" z, because you too are always in BLOOM!!!!

Z said...

I wish it was pouring here, Always....supposed to be 85 today...yuck. But, a cooling trend's coming on...thankfully. I'm not a heat girl!

Thanks, Pat....I try...but lately, with the news like it is, I feel my bloom's wilting. Just watched 10 minutes of TV news and quickly switched to Paul Dean's Best Dishes or QVC..for relief. :-(

Something bright before the storm is always nice, thanks Z.

Z said...

Kris...EXACTLY!

cube said...

You're not going soft any more than I'm going soft when I post about cats or some geeky stuff. It's just nice to take a breather and realize there is much to be enjoyed in the world besides the dirty world of politics.

Carry on.

Oh no Z, pouring? This is the first chance I've had in months to wear short sleeves, and go about the house in bare feet!

I love it. I also love the beautiful garden in the picture. Just lovely. Thanks.

Lovely picture, Z.

The dogwood trees are blooming like crazy in WV, all along the roads, and it is a treat for the eyes.

Oh, Pris, you know Z hates heat! Thankfully, we're cooling off this week.

Dogwoods, WVDOTTR, take a picture, please!!
