PURPLE DELIGHTS OF THE WEEK


Dear lovely people ,
hope you are having a great weekend ,

Hey it seems i am inhabiting the blogyland too much now a days .
Look at this ...... three posts in three days ..... awwww.. unbelivable.

As i simply want to talk to you all , and this week my place was surrounded with purple delights . it all started with the culprit bedsheet of mine , and in order to give company to my bedsheet , i started pilling all scattered purples around it ,here are few pics for you .



This is my first ever granny square , four small ones , joined together.







This is somthing i read about the shades of purple ......


Nature of Purple:



Purple has a special, almost sacred place in nature: lavender, orchid, lilac, and violet flowers are often delicate and considered precious. Because purple is derived from the mixing of a strong warm and strong cool color it has both warm and cool properties. A purple room can boost a child's imagination or an artist's creativity. Too much purple, like blue, could result in moodiness.
 
 
 
This is the pic of my mom's saree { mom is the shy model here }. I brought this for her from MRIGNAYANI EMPORIUM  [ a Madhya Pradesh State Emporium ]
 
 






PLEASE DO TEL ME , YOUR COLOUR DELIGHT OF THE WEEK .

MY CRAFTY HEART

HELLO ,
LOVELY PEOPLE ,

I HAD A HARD DAY AT WORK , WITH  UNCOMFORTABLE EXCHANGES OF DIALOGUES .... WHICH LEFT ME WITH A HEAVY HEART. 

BUT AS THE BIBLE TEACHES , I NEEDED TO FORGIVE AND IN DOING SO I NEEDED TO FORGET.....AND
FORGIVE TOOOOO

HMMMMMMMMMMM............................

WEL , WHAT TO DO .......ESCAPISM IS NOT MY WAY .

THE ONE RESORT OF ALL TROUBLE AFTER BEING ON  MY KNEES.....

IS MY CRAFTY ..... SKKIPY ......HEART .





I HAVE BEING MUCH INSPIRED BY SO MANY OF YOU TALENTED GALS OVER THER IN THE BLOGY

LAND. I THOUGHT I SHOULD GIVE IT A TRY .

AND I CAME OUT WITH THIS SKIPPY ..... CRAFTY ......HEART.




I HAD THIS BROWN    CLOTH , IT HAS LOVELY GOLDEN BLOCK PRINTS OVER IT.




















"Forgiveness is God's invention for coming to terms with a world in which, despite their best intentions, people are unfair to each other and hurt each other deeply. He began by forgiving us. And he invites us all to forgive each other



















"Forgiveness is the only way to break the cycle of blame--and pain--in a relationship...It does not settle all questions of blame and justice and fairness...But it does allow relationships to start over. In that way, said Solzhenitsyn, we differ from all animals. It is not our capacity to think that makes us different, but our capacity to repent, and to forgive.








HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND

BLESSING SQUARE : 14 - LOVE

Dear lovely people ,
its always much heart warming to hear from you ,
I guess we here in this bloggy land , have never met each other.
But some how feel close to our few lovely friend over here,
why ??? isn't it because of the love we have for each other .
how we are there for each other ,some of us even request for prayers,
as we believe that our friends will surely remember us as they pray.
LOVE ...... is the strongest of all cords , that tie us with each other ,
may it be any relationship .LOve is Magic.......this lil magic of love is my another precious blessing .......

                Blessing Square : 14  - LOVE         





Love is like magic

And it always will be.
For love still remains
Life's sweet mystery!!


Love works in ways
That are wondrous and strange
And there's nothing in life
That love cannot change!!


Love can transform
The most commonplace
Into beauty and splendor
And sweetness and grace.


Love is unselfish,
Understanding and kind,
For it sees with its heart
And not with its mind!!

Love do not judge,
is forgiving and patient
it over sees the past
but live the present
and dream , the future


Love is the answer
That everyone seeks...
Love is the language,
That every heart speaks.


Love can't be bought,
It is priceless and free,
Love, like pure magic,
Is life's sweet mystery!!


Love is an awesome feeling in itself .......................
ohhhhh , how much I am in love with ....... LOVE
There is only one happiness in life,
to love and be loved.
