Spidey’s Serene Sunday – Part 310 – Love Day

img_00411

“Where there is love, there is life.”

Mahaaatma Gandhi

Happy Valentine’s Day, Spidey, and to all you readers, out there in the Blogisphere!

I know, I know. Why just one day to celebrate love? We should be showing our aappretiation for all our loved ones, all of the time.

That, I truly agree with.

Vaalentine’s Day has been overrun by commercialism, and the expectation to buy cards, gifts, flowers, wine, and arrange romantic nights out, seems to havea overtaken the whole day.

Personally, I like to think of Valentine’s Day as a day to sit back, and remember all those I love, and make sure that I haven’t been forgetting any of them, from my one true love, my Hubby Dearest, to my children (human, furry and feathered) and the rest of my family.

It doesn’t stop there.

My friends, my colleagues, my blogily.

I truly appreciate all of you, and wish you a wonderful, love-filled life, with this day as a little reminder of what your people think of you.

Be my palentine

Today, I hope to just spend quality time with my family, no big gestures, just time. (Well, given the circumstances, we can’t actually do much else!)

So… tell me, do you celebrate Valentines?

Have a peaceful, love-filled Sunday Peeps.

Sue’s #WritePhoto Prompt:

It was mere seconds, but as I fell, it felt like time had slowed down.

I wondered how such beauty could be present at a time where my mind held thoughts not remotely beautiful.

The russets and golds on the leaves of the branch sticking out of the rocks.

The vibrant green of the plants surrounding it.

The sun, bouncing off the light stone of the wall.

The ripples creating their own music that grew louder as I drew closer to the water.

Then, the splash, followed by muffled sounds, as I sunk deeper into the water.

Tendrils from the underwater foliage threatened to wrap themselves around my limbs, but I fought them off.

Bubbles escaped my mouth as my body floated upwards, like an air-filled buoy.

I gasped for breath as my face broke the surface.

Invigorated, I swam to the edge and clambered out, soaking, but content.

It was as if I needed that shock to the system, to realise that, really, my life wasn’t so bad.

One Liner Wednesday #1LinerWeds

“It snowed, I walked, and slipped – Inevitable, isn’t it?”

Ritu 2021

Don’t worry, Peeps. I am fine! Had to walk into school for a couple of days, due to ice and unsafe roads. Yesterday, I walked along, happy as Larry, and stepped on an old plasaatic advertising board that had fallen on the ground, and got covered in snow, so it wasn’t visible.

I felt the ground slip from beneath me. (Well, actually, it was the board, but you know what I mean!) Couldn’t do anything to stop it, and landed flat on my newly padded arse! Thank goodness for that extra Lockdown Layer that I have cultivated, while we have been too busy eating too much! A padded bum definitely cushioned my slip!
