A Single Thought

Bella Shepard


Notice of absence from Bella Shepard
After dealing with some health issues for the last few months, I have decided to take a leave of absence until the dust settles and the clouds go away. I feel badly that I have been absent so much, for I miss my friends. I hope to be back before too long. I also hope that all of you will all be safe and well.

Plant a single thought

And you may grow a seedling

That changes the world

 

*For better or worse

    Yep, I had a single thought. Then all three of me brain cells got tired and decided it was time for a holiday. Dunno when they will be back! lol.

    • Bella Shepard

      At least I hope they've gone somewhere fun! Wishing them a grand holiday and a speedy return.

      • orchidee

        Yes, it was too much for them to have TWO thoughts. They were worn out after one! lol.

        Yeshow true Bella one single thought is so very powerful - -- mysterious indeed is what we call thinking. thanks for this well worded reminder my friend.

        • Bella Shepard

          Thank you dear friend for those thoughtful words. Incredible what these little brains of ours are capable of. We must treat them well.

        • Doggerel Dave

          Think you may have something there, Bella.

          • Bella Shepard

            Thank you Dave. These days it's good to have something anywhere.

            Absolute power therein lies in words that are of the poetic kind.... perhaps that it why prophecy, Scripture, hexes and spells are all poetically rendered. Perhaps, just a stray thought. Thanks Bella.

          • L. B. Mek

            Amen!
            and so, so true
            'a nugget of wisdom
            offered on a petal of awareness
            and poesy refined, accessible to all'
            (thank you, dear Poet)

              Your comment is priceless, I love the metaphor! Thank you so much for the fav!

              Profound and deep, but don't pant too deep or it may never come up. So true though, having taught in the past I have watched certain seed come up and this is very gratifying. You are right about planting weed though.

              • Bella Shepard

                Thank you my friend for this very wise comment. There will always be weeds. All the more reason to be vigilant in caring for our beautiful garden of life.

                A splendid Haiku Bella the perfect 575 .......... 🙂
                indeed, that is all it took, the grain of a single thought, well planted and nurtured, whether by accident or design from which all subsequent things have taken root, blossomed and fruited .. Neville

                • Bella Shepard

                  Thank you dear friend for this most insightful comment, you've stated it beautifully.

                • Paul Bell

                  Great medicines come to mind.
                  My usual one thought on a Monday, though, is roll on Tuesday.

                  • Bella Shepard

                    All those thoughts add up to a week, a month, a year, I guess that's how we keep going. I always appreciate your comments, and thank you very much for the fav.
