tea and time…

Posted on August 28, 2012 | 22 Comments

everyone I talk to remarks on how quickly time seems to be passing 

and here we are the 240th day of 2012 and the last Tuesday in August already…

    “like sands through the hour glass” (teehee.. had a flashback to watching soaps with my mom). it’s true for me too… lovely magical tea! any chance it’s a potion to slow time down? ;)

    One of the problems with taking time away from the computer is, I lose track of time. It was a shock to realize this was the last week of August, even though I fill in my calendar journal each day. Thanks for the not so subtle reminder.

    I love how you got the photo to sparkle. It is magical!

    That’s a fabulous photo Patty…love the sparkles. It seems that time accelerates as you get older. I reckon it should slow down do that you can get everything done before the finishing post.

    It can be so hard to live in the moment. We are always thinking of tomorrow. (or yesterday)…. Great post……. I just updated my blog… for you… hee hee!

    Great photo…how did you get the ‘sparkles?’

  11. Halle G | August 28, 2012 at 2:14 pm |

    Oh fancy tea today…it’s like a fairy came by and sprinkled her fairy dust and you captured it action. :)

    So beautiful with your calming starglitterly tea, and the tiny transparent “winged” piece Patty- And YES time runns far too quickly- I can`t understand that summer is already gone, and feel that I almost have not lived it!!!!
    I love the quote and think if we could just live after that ,we would also feel the time more present!
    Thankyou for this little advice sweet Patty.
    Hugs ,Dorthe

    Love your sparkling tea, the cute littel panel beside the cup is so precious. Thanks for the great quote!

    Patty, at times I actually find it frightening which in itself puzzles me, why such a reaction, is it possible I feel time is getting out of control, I need to ponder on this. Maybe I am not living as much in the present as I lead myself to believe .
    Adore your photograph and also the collage or is it a piece of wearable art, that face is captivating.
    You always select the most meaningful and timely (no pun intended) of quotes.
    Wishes

    Well look at you go– squeezed out a tea post (you leave me with no excuses!) “The last Tuesday in August” sounds so final! This month has disappeared. Truly!

  18. stempelchaotin | August 29, 2012 at 1:26 am |

    Wow what a wonderful picture my dear Patty.
    Love the tea. I love tea.

    Lovely image. It is important to savor those moments that mean the most to us instead of concentrating so HaRd on those that don’t.
    Have a lovely day,
    Dawn
