See the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence. We need silence to be able to touch souls.

It’s true.
Admire?
I admire the way you comb your hair,
and the way you mow my lawn.
YOU mean more than what YOU DO;
yes, even what you do for me!
YOU are my neighbor . . . friend . . . brother . . . sister.
You? I LOVE!

Fueled By . . .
If
Peace and passion
Do not travel hand in hand
All growth,
Perhaps even life itself
Comes to a halt.

Day three . . . will the rain EVER stop?
My mood was falling like the steady drops of rain
So I stepped outside.
I looked up at the clouds
Intending to share
a piece of my mind!
Instead,
The cooling, cleansing drops had their way
And I laughed
Then pounced in the nearest puddle!
I was young again!

When I was a child,
it did not really matter
that the carrot I pulled from the ground to eat
still had soil on it,
nor that I’d wiped the rest on my shirt.
The choice, there was none . . .
Focus on the carrot or on the dirt?
CRUNCH!

FEEDING TIME
When your life is a circus, do NOT forget to smile
and be sure to feed the animals!

Jeremiah 29:11
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Today is nothing special . . .
I have no particular plan.
I woke up feeling joyful
Just because I can.
Some will find this rather odd.
I feel sorry for them.
But as for me, I’m praising God!
Glory without end!

Some wish blessings,
others pray for them.
Some send blessings and they become one
