Paws for reflection. 8 x 8
Just a bear taking a moment to paws (pause). for reflection and give thanks for another day. It has begun - the leaves are changing colours & as always it is magnificent & a reminder of God and his power. A bit on the chilly side in the morning, today I was still wandering outside in just my PJs.
Reflection. It's amazing when you take the time to just sit and think, no distractions... just the birds, dragonflies & leaves drifting gently down, how all seems to fall into place, pun intended. Prayer brings peace. I pray the Rosary most days and admit sometimes I drift off when doing so , if I leave it too late (before bed) & I've had trouble with Rosaries that endure after a while. As a matter of fact - I have a collection of broken rosaries that I hope to re string. Sketching the other day, upset that my newest favourite broke again - I guess that's a good sign of use, I sketched a design to make a rugged rosary!
I'm very excited to start! One sketch became about 6 and the ideas just kept coming - but today I make the first, I think it will take a few days. You can buy some beautiful Rosaries -I especially like this brand (seen in the image below) https://ghirelli.com/collections/precious-stones-rosaries ... but they area little out of my price range (the ones I love, of course) and with the exchange they are even more, so I'll create my own for now. They also created the Rosalet which you can wear as a bracelet which is handy.

Some are stunning, there is quite the variety! I have a very old crystal rosary that was my grandmas, broken but I still cherish it and sometimes I still use it while thinking of my nanny. I don't believe our Mother Mary cares what we use as long as we pray any rosary. Our weapon against the devil. Our direct connection to communicating with God.
I have ones made from rose petals, plastic, glow in the dark, wooden beads, glass & crystals.
Today I start my forest inspired Rosary. I can't wait to pray - so it's working already! lol
Enjoy this day The Lord has made and take a moment to paws & reflect & Trust in God.
Enjoy these lovely fall days, the leaves will soon be gone and we all know what that means...
