Life’s been busy but I’m doing what I can to catch up this weekend. I love the Mandela-like graphic … it’s beautiful. Did you create it yourself? I’ve been thinking about seeking out a new place of worship myself … and Unitarian is one of the denominations I’ve considered. I’m sorry about your friend … 64 seems much too young to leave the planet. Thanks for sharing the amazing poem … and the reminder to live now. You'll both be in my prayers ...<BR/>Hugs and blessings,Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13732635.post-42772747162374157122008-09-14T05:05:00.000-05:002008-09-14T05:05:00.000-05:00Suzann, I feel wordless.

Without my leaf, there will something empty, something missing. But I'll fall to the ground and be a tiny part of something new. And splendid.<BR/><BR/>thanks for sharing.

We do have the choice to fill our lives with joy and beauty and squander it by focusing on what we feel we don't have. May joy and happiness find you, fill you, comfort you.Sylvia Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18259032453252447339noreply@blogger.com
