Moving On

Often in life we can find ourselves in a standstill,
feeling no joy or excitement about the coming days.   It can last even for years, then one day the joy and excitement slowly starts to return letting you know it is time to start moving on.  It might be a job change,
end of a relationship or even a move to a new location.
Even projects or being creative might finally give you that inspiration to take steps in a new direction. 
Whatever it is your heart feels a flutter again knowing happiness lays ahead. 

Following new roads may also mean less time spent with friends who don’t understand you have your wings back and want to fly again exploring all the wonders of the world that you may have forgotten existed. 

Even here on the internet good friends are never forgotten,
however when life has grabbed you by the hand and leads you off in a different direction, your time spent with them grows less.  Follow your path to happiness and try not to feel guilty.  Know in your heart your new journey may bring a new dimension in you to share later on.

My own path has brought me to this crossroad.  I have find it harder and harder to keep up my posts and visit all those who mean so much to me here in the blogging world.  I no longer want to feel anxious about getting a blog together, I have blogged about so many subjects here and  each one reflected something I was feeling in my life at the time and felt the need to share the message I was receiving through God and nature. I have been blogging for almost 7 years now and  I am not a writer and this has always been so hard for me but I had something at the time I felt I needed to share.  However I do love photography and would like to take this time in my life to put more time into my photography ambitions and try to further my knowledge and pursue so many other activities that I have put off for so many years. 

Just taking a vacation from this blog for awhile so I can truly enjoy life and nature and perhaps get a new perspective that will be a joy again for me to share.
I have written and shared photos on so many of subjects on life and nature and don’t want to have to start repeating what I have already shared so now is a good time to visit or reread many of my older blogs if you feel there might be a message there for you.  God has blessed me with so many messages through the world of nature, something I could always relate too.

So don’t worry if you don’t see any new posts for long periods,  I am just keeping so busy with other projects and interest for a while.

Thank you all for your support and encouragement each one of you have been like a feather added to my wings,
without you I could not have learned how to fly again.
Never Say Goodbye
Only Say God Bless

Hope you enjoy this video I put together sharing my feeling.

Moving On

Dawn to Dusk at the Salton Sea

The silence of darkness is broken
at the Salton Sea by the rising of the sun.

Breaking across the horizon it casts a new light on a new day.

Time seems to stand still as the sun
slowing moves towards the sky.

Photos by Here I Am Carrie

The day slips by often so quickly one forgets
to take time for those special moments here.

Photos by Here I Am Carrie

A simple drive or walk to a special place
where you can connect with nature again.

Photos by Here I Am Carrie

When one does reconnect the moment
stands still as God surrounds you again.

Photos by Here I Am Carrie

Nature will give you a show,
to remind you to come back often.

Photos by Here I Am Carrie

A peaceful feeling is felt here at the Salton Sea
when one takes the time to sit and watch the changes.

Photos by Here I Am Carrie

Not only spectacular sunrises but also
glorious moon rises will greet you when you show patience.

Photos by Here I Am Carrie

God spreads his light across the sea
and into your body.

Photos by Here I Am Carrie

You feel his presence all around you.

Photos by Here I Am Carrie

You thought you had lost him and he felt so distant.

Photos by Here I Am Carrie

But those quiet moments in nature
will always help you to feel close again.

Get close to nature and God will get close to you

Come Walk with Me

Come walk with me where winter wraps her arms around the earth.

Come walk with me where unusual animals may surprise you.

Stopping to chat with local birds.  Come walk with me.

Exploring hidden places tucked away in winters arms.

Come walk with me where the
pace is slow and one stops often to ponder it’s beauty.

Be still and quiet for around every bend there awaits something new.

Come walk with me
where the forest whispers “ enter for you shall find peace within”.
Photo by Here I Am Carrie
Sometimes chatty birds greet you and want to join your journey.
Photo by Here I Am Carrie
Like paintings on the wall, you are presented with new view each step.

A stroll, a walk a connection to heaven.

Come walk with me where a world of enchantment exists.

Our journey may end with the setting sun,
but the feelings of being surrounded by God
will continue to resonate within us.

Call of the Lily

I woke this morning to find you had been here,
but remembered you had never left.
For in the blooms of my lilies you showed yourself today.

Photo by Here I Am Carrie

 Sometimes life gets so busy I loose sight of you and my connection is lost.

Photo by Here I Am Carrie 

 But like the lost lamb you are always there to guide me back so I can feel your presence and feel secure in this crazy world..

Photo by Here I Am Carrie

 You lift me high again so that I may shine and continue to blossom.

Photo by Here I Am Carrie

 Though sadness and tears may sometime come to me I will know in my heart that I will only grow stronger when you are near me.

Photo by Here I Am Carrie 

Your strength and presence in my life
will always help me to know the heart of my fellow man.

Photo by Here I Am Carrie

With you near me I hope in my own way I can help show how beautiful and wonderful our world can be when you are present in ones heart.

Photo by Here I Am Carrie

 

I pray that I wake up feeling your presence every morning.

Photo by Here I Am Carrie

So please God continue to shine a light on nature so that I may never forget how you have gotten me through hard times and helped me grow.

Where to Focus in Life

We look here we look there.  We look far away and sometimes up close.  Often we wonder where we should focus in life?

Our big world up close is such a fascinating place,
filled with so many intricacies that tie it all together.
That wonderful web of life.

Photos by Here I Am/Carrie

But when looking at the big picture we often don’t see how
every living thing is somehow depending on another.  We somehow
see it all but see it as separate in the big picture of things.

Photos by Here I Am/Carrie

But when one does focus more on a certain living things
you begin to realize how the big picture fades away and you can now
start to see the details that begin to connect to the web of life.

Photos by Here I Am/Carrie

You begin to see it more clearly as a whole and how it can
relate to the bigger, yet still not quite focused picture of life.

Photos by Here I Am/Carrie

We all find ourselves at these different places where
we focus our lives and feel our connections.

Photos by Here I Am/Carrie

Just remember to always stretch your arms out
and let yourself focus, so you can better understand how
we are all connected to God’s wonderful web of life.

His Light Shines Upon Us

When God’s light shines upon us we begin to illuminate from within.

Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

His rays of love spreading down around us.

Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

We begin to glow.

Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

Never afraid of his light, but standing tall so that it may flow into us.

Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

We raise our hands to his glory.

Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

Opening ourselves to all his love.

Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

So that his rays may shine through us.

Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

With his light, the love we carry can be seen and felt.

Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

Bringing  hope and faith in all who often feel lost.

Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

Through his light of love much is revealed.

Photo by Here I Am/Carrie

Life becomes brilliant and full of joy when God’ light shines upon us.
