This will be a forum for ideas (old and new), musings, opinions (mostly mine), thoughts, dreams, reactions and favorite things (totally mine). The Kitchen Sink refers to the place I am standing when my thoughts take on a life of their own, where I am most creative and where I can dream in color. The window at my kitchen sink affords me an almost endless view of green and trees and wonder. Thank you for turning on the water!

Buddha-ful

I don't know why I love the image of the Buddha so much or when this obsession began. I am sure I am drawn to his smiling face and big belly and the peaceful acceptance he exudes.  He is hopeful and happy and a reminder to just be and not take myself so seriously. He calms me and makes me stop and reflect upon my day and to remember that the world is bigger than me and my issues. The Buddha tells me to slow down and see if I can do something for someone else. You should plan on seeing a happy Buddha pop up from time to time to remind me (and you) to take some time to breathe and think about others and to find peace. You haven't heard the last about Buddha from me.......... Namaste :)
