~Shaken Faith In The Human??? Race~

I am sitting here right now in shock and disbelief over something said about my videos which I lovingly create from my own personal photographs. Coming on the heels of my "Forgiveness " post I find this quite ironic as I will be taking a long time if ever to forgive this remark.
There are situations where it is almost impossible to forgive and unfortunately this is one of them. I know this is supposed to be a blog of peace and serenity and I apologize for the rant. However, there are times when a good rant and rave is healthy and healing. My only saving grace is that our all-mighty Creator knows this person's black and wicked heart and one day she will answer to HIM.
I really cannot be the one to judge here only try to understand the reason for her apparent hatred.

~Forgiveness~


Sometimes it is very hard for someone to forgive a perceived affront and by remaining closed-minded against the person you feel has hurt you without taking the time to sit down and discuss the matter in a rational manner only results in the loss of friendship and lost time.

If only all of us would take the time to develop empathy toward everyone and try to understand why someone makes a certain decision, we would probably all realize that it in no way means disrespect to anyone, but is a personal way to handle sorrow and grieving.

~A Brand New Venture~

As a follow-up to my "taking a chance" post I want to take this opportunity to let you know that I am in the very first steps of creating a secondary You Tube channel called SpringtimeSkies129 just for art projects but not excluding photography. I am hoping to expand my "Awesome Skies" collection from last summer to be included on this new site.
I am still in the baby steps of creating this new site and of course this will involve taking my viewers through the completion of several art projects in the works at this moment.
Once I have this up and running I will start inviting my very closest and dear friends from my ginnykaren channel to join me on this site also. Those friends are what makes it all worthwhile and one of the reasons I am planning to do this. This won't have the volume of activity as my original and my beloved (by me) ginnykaren channel but I am planning to make it fun and artsy.
Yes, I am dreaming big again but that is what makes life interesting and fun.
I promise to keep you all informed of my progress slow as it may be however.

~Taking A Chance~

If you get a chance take it...Don't be afraid to try. If it changes your life...let it.
If it only lasts for a season, embrace it while it is there and learn from the experience.
No one ever promised life would be easy, but live and love to the fullest and enjoy the ride.
Don't be afraid to open your heart to all the hope, joy and love there is in this world and if out of that love comes hurt, embrace it also because these things make you grow and learn.
I hope that everyone of my readers finds love, peace and joy.
Warm blessings to all of you.
Gigi

~Can Spring Be Far Behind?~


It might be cold tonight but this past Saturday this beautiful first crocus of the season was blooming in my yard. I have noticed that the birds have been singing too in the morning.
I so cannot wait for Spring...can you?
Hugs,

You are The Empress

Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.

The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents, beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.

The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.
