Just living is not enough... one must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower - Hans Christian Andersen
Take me with you when you go, we'll explore our life, starting an adventure, all over again. From the beginning, at first, that is where to start, we'll roll back nicely when getting close to the end. In all that I do, I can see myself running straight into the sunshine. I'll let the world listen as I play my songs, singing loudly in the wind, hair blowing every which way. I need to feel free once again, so grab my hand and let's go!
I need to be me, the experience of free
Set aside today, before cold invades my soul.
Explore the splendor, preserve the joy
I can almost form a picture - a picture in my mind
Being on the rocks sounds so very tragic, doesn't it?
Position is everything.
I thought of you when I saw this... can you see the heart in front? Touched by the gentle bliss, creating an image of softness as you brush your lips on mine, igniting my imagination to another level.
The day absolutely belongs to @c0ff33a and his #SublimeSunday. Where you can post your random thoughts and dreams between the lines. I thank him in advance for this opportunity to throw caution to the wind and let it flow. And today, my @c0ff33a, that makes you my hero.
@c0ff33a was rich and delicious today, but, the sunflower, that kind of beauty is not every day. Alas and so, there must be a flower to color my world. #alwaysalower The very sight of their magnificence truly brings it home. Ironically, it is once again a #BeautifulSunday created by @Ace108, taking your day and sharing what you did. I fooled around with flowers, candy for Halloween, and a post. I tried them all, but got nothing done. I hope you had a great day!
My soul is wrapped up in whispers from your heart
Embrace the passion as it dances
Caressing eyes, a gentle touch
Can it ever be too much?
I promised I would try to remember to post one Christmas picture each time I posted. Just to keep the count going, there are 53 days 22 hours 34 minutes, and 16 seconds.
All I have are my words, armed in my mind, written in pen, stand by stand. Oh, yes. Still by hand. It has a different feel. Altered not by keys, backspace, and delete, I write, erase, tear it to pieces and start all over again. And again.
It’s my way. I walk out to the deep end of the page and dive right in.
Take me with you when you go, we'll explore our life, starting an adventure, all over again. Take me with you when you go. Take me with you when you... Goodbye!
The Naming of Cats
The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter,
It isn’t just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I’m as mad as a hatter
When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.

My Sunday was very sublime but made even more so by this post! So many perfect moments and prose to match.
BRAVO!

Hi @zekepickleman !! You're so darned positve, it makes me smile!!
Thank you so much!! Have a great week ahead!
Thank you for the repost @pixresteemer! Much appreciated by me!
Interesting #SublimeSunday community. I also need to participate and share my thoughts)
It is interesting and I think it would be a tag that you would do well in posting to. It's fun, funky and full of surprises. As the content can be random, it can get interesting.
Many times they pair it up with #BeautifulSunday where you post what you did on your Sunday, although admittedly, mine was a little straining in the content on that one. Thank you for stopping by and for leaving your words.
Have a great day!
The breaking of the waves that caught my eye, what a beautiful photo.
Thank you for sharing the beauty of the day 🥰🥰🤗🤗
Thank you so much, I do like the sea and its fury! It looks amazing in person to see that coming right at you.
Thank you again and I hope you have a wonderful day!
🥰🥰🤗🤗
It depends on the viewpoint. Being on the rocks is still better than being underwater, especially if you cannot swim, but probably those huge waves could easily push you into the water, although you still have some kind of chance to hold on to that rocks.
I often feel/felt this way about my life, but I still did not gave up, and I will not give up.
I give you some !PIZZA and !LUV.
Have a nice day. All the best.

Life can sometimes be like drowning, I have to agree with you. I am always happy to see people forge ahead, even when the odds are stacked against them.
Being on the rocks can be taken so many different ways, I just posted it and let people use it for however it fits them. Sometimes that is best as it means different things to different people. You are giving me pizza and LUV again!
Thank you!
!LUV Right back at you! Have a wonderful day!

Thank you for the pizza!
You are welcome
All those photography are really awesome. Specially flowers are looking so beautiful.
I appreciate your words, thank you. I really do love to photograph flowers. They are so forgiving and they look good when they are starting to bloom, right up to when they are in a state of demise. :)
How can we not love that? Thanks again and have a great day!
Nice words and photos. I do see the heart in the front of the flower. I probably wouldn't have spotted it if you hadn't pointed it out though. It's very camouflage. Neat!
I didn't see it right away, I was going for the light! I do love finding hearts in nature, so I am always on the lookout for them.
Thanks for your kind words and I hope you are having a great day!
The beautiful feeling of freedom...running into the sunshine and enjoying the beauty of nature and life... And not alone but with a friend!
Such beautiful words you have weaved together in this post. And I love the picture of the flower. Stunning! 😊🌸
Yes! You understand! So many people do not understand the feeling of freedom, letting go, drifting to the ways of the wind.
Le sigh.
Not alone, a friend is always fun and I cannot imagine life without them. It is what makes the world go round, yes? Flowers. I just love flowers. Maybe you have noticed? I cannot help it! They are so forgiving and always beautiful!
I hope you have a wonderful day!
I know sublime Sunday is as you say including among other things random thoughts
But I have to be honest when I read your post the idea of random thoughts never comes to my mind
Your thoughts and words in posts always flow and lead one to think about things
Insightful would be another way I think of your posts in general and this one in particular
As always such beautiful and yes sublime images so fitting with your thoughts
Have a great day
I'm so smart, in my hurry to get them in, I forgot to tag them. Seriously.
Thank you so much for your words, always so kind and thoughtful. Genuine and from the heart, always a pleasure to come upon.i hope you are having a wonderful day!
I do the same even though I prepare in advance often :)
I just say it as I see it
A good day so far, got a nice walk in at sunrise, and the sun is meant to be out and about today :)
Have a my yearly dermatology follow up today, lets see if they find anything, hopefully not to many, I have one bump on my nose I will point out but otherwise am hoping for an all clear
It was the whole point of the post, yes? So, one would think that would be foremost on my mind.
It was perfectly beautiful out today, the sun warming my face as I walked out into the battlefield. All Saints Day means a few moments spent at Arlington Cemetery and ponder how I never seem to get out there much in the last year, but, it had been all but closed off, funerals pushed... I just keep thinking the world is about to change, but, I believe I am just adapting instead.
Good luck with your follow-up. I am sure it will be good. You could hardly do any damage this last year. You weren't allowed to do anything. The Good news is definitely in order
I'll be thinking of you.
Sounds like a good day you had yesterday
And yes hoping for good news but I think most of the spots showing up these past few years are from my younger days I seldom walk in the bright sun these days apart from doing yard work and I am very good using sunscreen these days we’ll have been for a few years now
Either way it goes it’s all good if none perfect but even if they find a spot or two at least I am catching them early
Have a great day
Exactly, they are from our younger days and even though I never believed it oh, it has a way of catching up with us. LOL I think we just need to run faster.
Yeah I don’t think we can run fast enough these days lol
:) Race you to the corner!
You are certainly skilled at putting everything into one post :) I wish I could do that for today's load 😂
Haha! You think? I can tell you that most times, it is not intentional, it sort of meanders over that way. Who am I to stop it? Some days, there is so much that could go in there, and it just doesn't fit. I do not do more than one post a day, so I have to make them count!
Thank you for stopping and I hope you have an amazing day!
You have an amazing day too ❤️ Unfortunately I had to do mine in two posts. An action spy story set in the future, and the announcement for the winners of a contest simply can't coexist 🤣
!LUV
Well, yes! They can! LOL Although, maybe not so well! :) Good luck with them! Two payouts! Lucky guy!
Thanks ❤️ That wasn't the plan, but seeing that I missed 3 posts last week I guess it can be forgiven 😂
!LUV
This is good quality arts!
So nice! I love the colors and atmosphere! It's beautiful :)
Also, the focus is on the pictures and on the description, which is good.
Love your style my dear lovely friend @dswigle. God bless you dear.
Thank you so much for the kind comment that you always leave. The colors of fall are so hard to fail with, aren't they? Each day, they get more brilliant, until they start sliding the other way, going to sleep, sleep, sleep.
Thank you again and I hope you have a wonderful day!
What a focus with great scenes
Have a nice day
Thank you very much and that's a very kind thing of you to say. Good morning from here and I hope you had a wonderful day.
Your smile is simply good in that black and white photo. We hope to see more of these dear.
:)) Thanks, Sam. I dislike selfies and am not really comfortable taking them, but, I will put out a new one now and then.
Good morning from here!
The Christmas decorations one look like part of a playing cards.
Where the ace?
I haven't learned how to paint the Ace yet! But, when I do oh, you will be the first person that I contact to let know that you are alive and well. Good morning from here and I hope that you are having a most incredible day. The sun is shining and the weather is beautiful not very like a November day. If we can just keep this up for a little while, winter will be going on and we will be able to enjoy season of renewal once again.
It was supposed to be a raining October. They have not said anything about November yet but it rain heavily today.
Your October was so rainy, even I felt wet! It was made worse as you had to go out every day or pay the likes of Dash, which, I am thinking is not so reliable.
That would be a good start-up business over there in Singapore, wouldn't it? A delivery service that actually worked? :)
I think all the delivery service have problem one time or another. Sometimes it's just bad luck
All aboard the Christmas train. Halloween has passed, choo choo
I do like your painted Christmas can characters especially with all the detail. This was not a rush job on those, I can tell 🙂
They look so simplistic, people ask me to paint ten at a time... Do you think you can make ten of these for me? They would look cute on my mantel. Yikes!
Five days before Christmas...
Thank you!
Good luck with your thirty daily posts!
We will see how it goes! It does mean missing out on some regular things that I do!

Amazing..so romantic I love every bit of it
Thank you so much for the kind and thoughtful comment! I hope you have a great day!
Thanks and you also
Very nice images accompanying your poetry.
Thank you so much for those kind and thoughtful words. I just went over to your page and found mushroom heaven!!!
It was pretty amazing!!
Good morning Denise and how beautifully sublime were your words as they ran along the lines and out into the rushing waves and pretty petals.
Your posts give me a open door to leave this very concrete world and visit a fantasy one of words and colour.
Sending love.
Oh, my goodness! I have forgotten how sweet your comments always are, always saying just the right thing. I am so sorry for not getting around too much. It has been super busy and I was getting ready for company that got COVID instead. Talk about dodging a bullet!

BEER.Hey @dswigle, here is a little bit of
BEERfrom @zekepickleman for you. Enjoy it!Do you want to win SOME BEER together with your friends and draw the
BEERKING.Christmas is that close??? I've still got Halloween decorations up! So much to do, so much to do.
The nice thing about Halloween is that it can be whatever you want it to be. The nice thing about Christmas is that it's both winter (which I love) and incredibly colourful (which I also love).
There is no making you unhappy! :)
That is such a good thing, Victor! @wwwiebe It is actually sneaking up on me and I am not getting worried that I won't get everything done.
Le sigh.
I need to reorg this weekend and come out with a plan! Thanks so much for stopping by, Victor!
Have a great weekend!
I went out Christmas shopping today! Flea markets and antique stores. Well, a flea market and antique stores. Found a couple of neat things! I'm so done with shopping online; my gifts this year are going to be all sort of second hand and interesting.
That is the best methinks! Everything was made so much better and ideas were Innovative and tres cool. They used real wood and real leather in they were probably made in America, or Canada, of course. Good for you. I just ordered something online the other day and received it and it's nothing like I expected so it went back. Another reason I dislike buying online.
Happy, Sunday!!
