Corner Accent Lamp

I wish a happy and healthy new year of life to all!

May your days fill you with inspiration and gratitude.

This year, I hope to appreciate the smallest things life offers.

No time for anger or discontent.

Time for love, kindness, understanding, and deep peace. 

I think it'd be nice to be a light in the world. So, with that in mind, here is today's post:
 

Once upon a time, while browsing in a most delightful Cracker Barrel gift shop, a small pink and crystal lamp just about jumped off the shelf into my hands.

Pink, as regular readers know, is my favorite color.

Plus, I love anything with crystals or that is old-fashioned looking.

It's been a long time since the little lamp came home with me but I still love it.

It's on a tall, narrow table just inside the living room.

I love the patterned shadows it casts on the wall.

HOW CAN YOU BE A LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS THIS YEAR?

"No time for anger or discontent."

Amen to that, Susan!

I think doing little, ordinary things one at a time, continually, throughout the day, is the best way for someone like me to shine the light. Live life in one moment, and then the next moment, purposefully.

Happy New Year to you and yours.

Oh, what a pretty lamp, Susan. Such a soft pink color, I love it. Just wanted to tell you I'll be taking a blog break, but the girls will fill in and post as often as they can, so I hope you stop by and visit when you can. I will continue to visit your lovely blog - I'm just taking a break from posting.

Happy New Year, and you are already a light in this world. : )

love, ~Sheri

What a lovely lamp and sentiment! I will continue to be a kind and positive person to all around me. Help out where I can and promote love and not feed into the negativeness around me. Happy New Year Susan! :) Kit

Okay Pinkie - to you and your hubs:

“May you always be blessed with walls for the wind. A roof for the rain. A warm cup of tea by the fire. Laughter to cheer you. Those you love near you. And all that your heart might desire.”
—Irish Proverb
