Reflections of a Septuagenarian

Upon reflection #184

Posted on July 16, 2026July 9, 2026 by Septuagenarian in Being Human, Friendships, Life Lessons

I look at reflection in two ways. One, I find gazing at a reflection mirrored in quiet water to be a moment that is restful, tranquil, and peaceful for my spirit. The other way is in relationships. If someone is really annoying me, rather than judge, I’ve learned to take time, reflect and ask myself, … Continue reading Upon reflection #184 →

In Memory of Judy Scott

Posted on May 21, 2026May 21, 2026 by Septuagenarian in Friendships, Life Lessons, Light, nature

The only thing for certain is we have this moment. Like trying to capture the sun behind … Continue reading A Moment in Time #103 →

Posted on April 14, 2026April 3, 2026 by Septuagenarian in Friendships, Light, nature

As events around the world continue to result in collapsing governments, broken agreements and chaos, all I know to do is be thankful for a moment of beauty and share it with my friends. Let yourself rest in a moment of mother nature’s gift. I have friends with free-ranging chickens in their back yards. These … Continue reading Daily Gratitude #90 →
