@taci,

I am glad you like your ring hey wear it in good health I know it is a beauty. 🌹💕

Win win for you today. OZ was in the 90’s today and will stay that way for days.

Well it is summer time. 😎

@oodiebom,

I am so glad to hear from you please take care of yourself. A lot is going on in
this world. ✨🌹

I knew you were tired just get plenty of bed rest and water. 🌹

I would call the rehab first thing in the morning if you need another day
to feel right take it. I do understand your concern about your husband’s eating.

Oz will be in the upper 90’s all week.

@xango,

I think the bunny will be back when the noise is gone. All my critters hate the noise and
a lawn mower is the fastest way to get rid of any critter. I would not worry too much as
they always come back. 😎✨

I love feeding them and looking out for them. I am thankful at night I can see in my
large backyard as we have cameras out back as well. This is for security purposes.

I had a small pieces of Baskins Robbins and I was able to buy a small cake hubby and I
shared it. I have to say this is Summerland. 💕🌹✨

Enjoy your evening at the moon is beautiful tonight. 💕

Sheba, you are spot on with the Jewelry and Ice cream. What a great holiday!
Hope it isn’t too hot in Oz today.

My Rarities ring arrived today in Champagne. So far I really like the ring. It’s lighter in presence despite being a larger sized ring and very wearable. I sized up. To me, it’s more delicate and lighter than the pictures and presentation. All good for me.

Have a good evening.

Peace Out Peeps stay cool and safe. ✨🌹😎

Good afternoon Sheba 😊
The grass cutting team was here this morning and scared my beautiful little bunny off. He must of ran into the woods in the backyard.
I woke up early with all the loud noise of the big machines.

Hubby is driving to work in Tampa this week., comes home very tired and hungry.
Made him a refreshing salad, Romain lettuce, tomato a little chicken and avocado. A dressing of olive oil, lemon with parsley and Oregano.
Those ice cream cakes look delicious, I can’t remember when was the last time I had one. Must of been a good while. I do enjoy a good ice cream in the Summer. That’s something I don’t make myself. I have made it in the past, but it’s been a long while.

I too hope Oodiebom is well and just a bit busy.

Enjoy your evening 😊, I love the long days of Summer. Full Moon is on the 3rd, oh boy, couple that with the 4th. 😀
Take care Sheba 🌹 🌹🌹🌹🌹

Good afternoon to you. Rainy day in the ‘burgh🌧 so I don’t think I will be venturing out for ice cream cake. But I do have ice cream and pie! I am gaining weight just looking at all your cakes and getting ready to lick the screen.👅

Not much happening this week, it will be a hot weekend.🔥 Depending on how I feel and what comes up, may have to go take a dip in mom’s pool. I’m sure many will be taking a long weekend for the 4th.🎆✨🎇

Enjoy your day, evening and ice cream cake day. My door is open so send any leftovers, all flavors are welcome. Hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖

Dumbing Ourselves Down

When we dumb ourselves down, we sell ourselves short and lose an opportunity to shed light where it is needed.

The ability to go into any social situation and sense the level of consciousness in it is a gift. It enables us to move considerately through the world. However, there is a difference between shifting our energy to accommodate people and dumbing ourselves down to a regrettable degree. Sometimes, when we get into a particular social situation, we may feel pressure to play it small in order to fit in. Perhaps everyone is drinking or smoking excessively, engaging in gossipy small talk, or complaining bitterly about politics. It is one thing to notice this and modify our expectations and another thing entirely to join in.

When we notice where people are coming from and acknowledge, to ourselves, that their energy is not in alignment with ours, we have choices about how to proceed. One viable option is to quietly endure the situation, keeping to ourselves until it is time to leave. In this way, we take care of our own consciousness and protect our growth process. Another option is to interact in a way that honors and pays respect to the people in the group, while gently attempting to shift the level of consciousness with our input. In order to do this, we must maintain our own vibration, which means that joining in by dumbing down is not an option.

When we choose to dumb ourselves down to fit in, we not only sell ourselves short but we also lose a possible opportunity to influence the situation for the good. Our desire to join in may come from our natural yearning to feel connected to the people around us. There is no shame in this, but being able to stand on our own, separate from the crowd, is a powerful milestone on any spiritual path. It can be difficult in the moment, but when we arrive on the other side, our integrity intact, we may find ourselves feeling positively smart. AMEN! ✨🌹😎

@kittengirl,

Good morning Kitten and may this post finds you doing well. 🌹💕I think you and your
