One perfect pad. I took this photo a few days ago when I noted it sticking up all alone and so perfectly. I have been using a sort of mantra in the last week, and I call it "ONE THING". I have been trying to use it to just slow down and appreciate everything. Food, activities, people, etc., by concentrating on the ONE THING I am doing at the time. I started out using it as a way to slow down and think more about what I eat, and how I eat. Now I find myself thinking of it in so many other ways during my day. I thought this one pad was fitting for me this week on Cactus Monday!

I like your mantra, Julie. :) I'm also learning to be in the present moment.
Perfect symbolism!! It sounds like such a good idea to do that.
Happy Cactus Monday!
we come into this world alone and we leave it alone too!
that's a good mantra, will use that at school (which was okayish today...)
hcm cactuteer!
It looks like it's swearing to something, holding up its pad. Hope you have a nice Labor Day,
Aiyana
That is perfect. Oh and thanks. I love my outfit too!!!
Sorry
This is a late thank you to the comment you left on my photography blog. It makes me want to have a tea party too
Very good idea. My daddy used to say...one thing/day at a time. Love the single cactus leaf...looks like a spineless.
I am on the same wave length. On the eating and and it also fits in with my thinking on learning to live a more simple life.
Sioux- this plant seems to possibly be a cross between a Beavertail cactus, and a spineless variety! The flowers are the same as the Beavertail.
Eve- it really does turn out to be something that is simple, and easy to remember during my day...to simplify.
Hope it works for you! I can't seem to concentrate on One Thing!
I want to wish you Happy Cactus Monday a few days late. I just found your blog via Teri's Painted Daisies. I too participate in Cactus Monday. I really like your single paddle of prickly pear. It can give us all hope.
