About me

DSCF6377Firmly in my 6th decade now. Older, wiser, happier. Ready to walk the arboretum paths and breath in beauty. Come join me anytime. If you have a time you would like to meet email me at mountainmae.com

I am seeker of wisdom, beauty and truth. Living each now moment with as much clarity and open-heartedness as possible. As for sayings I live by, 1st is “Love everyone unconditionally, including yourself.” Now in my 6th decade of life, I feel I have already lived at least three “lives” this life. The many experience meld together to make me the woman I am today. Still swinging around lampposts.

  3. You have a lovely refreshing blog Mae — I’m glad I stopped by! This year I’ve resolved to put more kindness and joy into both my life and the world by visiting and commenting on a new positive blog every day, while keeping a list of my virtual travels on my own blog. So far, my spirits have been much uplifted by discovering so many kind and welcoming bloggers like you!

      1. I haven’t set up a follow button because my blog is not hosted at WordPress. My husband, who is a software developer, set me up with a virtual private server instead. 🙂 I do have links in the sidebar for subscribing to the feed, though.

      1. I was going to ask if you photoshopped him; glad I stopped by here first. Do you happen to know what he is? I was thinking Hamster at first, but there’s something (about his ears?) that isn’t quite right – not to mention that herb flower (who’s name escapes me at the moment) he’s climbing on is about 18-24 inches off of the ground…

    1. Thank you for this award. It is always nice to be appreciated by others. Unfortunately I do not do the pass-it-on part which makes me ineligible. Thanks for thinking of me.

  29. Thank you for choosing to follow my blog, I look forward to reading more of yours. I don’t do “awards” and pass alongs either, I don’t view this as a competition for the most followers (like Facebook friends – mine really are), but as a way to push myself to write every day and on occasion offer something that might resonate with another. Thanks for putting out heartfelt posts, that’s why I’m here!

  36. Beautiful introduction of yourself. I like that you include yourself in the loving. I’m an old broad in my seventh decade, a full-time RV-er with my dog, Pepper. Everywhere I’ve traveled in this beautiful country I’ve found beauty, and awesome people with great spirits like yours. Thanks for following my blog

  42. Your blog is great! Before I read a word I just found the layout and picturs very relaxing. And I have left your “about me” page open as a tab in my browser, because every time I click on it that picture just makes me laugh. Thanks for visiting my blog.

  45. I read and enjoyed your posts under ‘family history’. In recent years I have been writing a lot of family stories, things that sound inconsequential but breathe life into the family I’ve known, to pass to the next generations. I think it’s just so, I don’t know, lovey for lack of a better word that poetry brings back memories of your Dad. What a nice association.
