Autumn Is A Second Spring Where Every Leaves A Flower.. ..

About Me

>
My name is Arlene and I am 41 years young. I was born and raised in Ontario and grew up in a family of nine kids. I'm number 4. I now have 6 children of my own. Adam-22 Matt-20 Stephanie-18 Katie and Casey-12 and finally Crystal whose 9. I'm am proud of the way my kids have turned out and how they live their lives. They are amazing. I have raised them with God's guidence and even though I've made mistakes (and am still learning lol) I know in my heart I've done the best I can.
I enjoy the outdoor and camping in the summer. To me theres nothing like sunbathing at the lake or pool during the day and listening to the guitar, roasting mellows and singing songs by the campfire. I also enjoy going for walks and enjoying natures wonders. My friend Beth is a forester and I've learned so much from her about different kinds of trees, plants and wildlife. I love getting up early in the morning with the girls and spreading birdseeds around us, until the birds come around and before you know it we are surrounded by many different types. What an amazing way to start your day. I enjoy reading many different kinds of books. At the end of the day theres nothing like a glass of wine and good book. Another thing I LOVE to do is sing! I hear the word Karaoke and I'm there! You don't have to ask me twice. lol I'm always singing. I have met many good people on my space who I am now proud to call my friends. When I first joined I had no idea the kind of relationships I would gain from being online. I've been very blessed.

My Interests



Deep inside we are still the children of autumn, that magic time of year that once swept us into the leaves.

No spring or summer beauty has such grace as I have seen in autumns face.

Autumn is the second spring, when every leafs a flower.

Peace is not something you wish for; it is something you make, something you do, something you are and something you give away.

I'd like to meet:



The Colors Of Fall

Filling the sky with crimson and gold
Leaves scatter without a sound
Carelessly dancing in the crisp autumn air
they gently cascade to the ground
Covering the earth like a warm blanket
of brilliant color and beauty
the changing of season beckons
for all the world to see.

Autumn Leaves

One of the nicest beds i know
Isn't a bed of soft white snow
isn't a bed of cool green grass
after the noise of mowers pass
isn't a bed of yellow hay
making me itch for half the day
but autumn leaves in a pile so high
deep, and smelling like fall and dry
thats the bed where I like to lie
and watch the birds up in the sky.

Gratefulness is the key to a
happy life that we hold in our hands because
if we are not grateful then no matter how
much we have we will not be happy.
because we will always want more

Be content with whatyou have is priceless.

Love is enduring and patient and kind,
It judges all things with the heart not the mind.
Love can transform the most common place
Into spleandor and beauty and sweetness and grace.
For love is unselfish giving more than it takes
And no matter what happens love never forsakes
It's faithful and trusting and always believing
Guileless and honest and never deceiving
Yes, love is beyond what man can define
For love is immortal And God's gift is divine.

When you pray,
rather let your heart be without words
than your words without heart.

Prayer is when you talk to God
Meditation is when you listen.



Music:



God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference

People take different roads seeking fulfilment and happiness. Just because their not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost.

Time is not measured by the years that we live but by the deeds that we do and the joys that we give.

Movies:



There are only two ways to love life. One as though nothing is a miracle, the other as though everything is a miracle.

Take a music bath once or twice a week for a few seasons. You will find it is to the soul what water bath is to the body.

Television:


We are each of us an angel with only one wing and we can only fly by embracing one another.

A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and sings it back to you when you have forgotten the words.

Everyone should take the time to go for a country drive in the fall to see the beautiful colors of earth.
