NORTH WALES WHERE I LIVE - FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND DOGS
When we are in a state of being where we are open to life and all its possibilities, willing to take the next step as it is presented to us, then we meet the most remarkable people who are important contributors to our life. This occurs in part through the meeting of our eyes [MySpace messages]; it's as if our souls instantly connect, so that we become part of a life together at that moment. J. Jaworski.
I CARE FOR THE EARTH
I LOVE TO GARDEN
I WORSHIP THE MOON
I BELIEVE IN FAIRIES
Meaning is at the core of the creative process of storytelling... When it is our own life story we are telling or a story from our lives, we become aware that we are not victims of random and chaotic circimstances, that we, too, despite our grief or feelings of insignificance, are living meaningfully in a meaningful iniverse. D. Metzger.

You are amazing for touching our universe...verse upon verse...know I love you with Happy Holidays in a song-life romancing the very sweet breath of Our Creation! We too are relation in Sacred ways...You are a miracle in my life....a walk through great beauty by friendship...My prayer filled thoughts will indeed be of you and with you this Holiday Season. My silk is madness, yet, gentle is this natural heart break. There is always my shy redemption. :>) Adjoined full of cheer our friendship shines upon the horizon looking with eye's of peace~~Star gazed with lights of love~~a winged adventure does arise ~~here with glistening eye's. Warm Embraces as well..Oh! and if you could share some egg-nog dashed and splashed with a wee bit of rum...Ha!! I think it would be fun!! How I will sing in a robe of merry cheers quilted in sweetness! Always love and Peace! I see you !

What is Christmas? It is tenderness for the past, courage for
the present, hope for the future. It is a fervent wish that every cup may
overflow with blessings rich and eternal, and that every path may lead to
peace. ~ Agnes M. Pharo

Have a beautiful Christmas, dear friend
"Jack Frost was in the garden" by John P. Smeeton;
I saw him there at dawn;
He was dancing round the bushes
And prancing on the lawn.
He had a cloak of silver,
A hat all shimm'ring white,
A wand of glittering star-dust,
And shoes of sunbeam light.
Jack Frost was in the garden,
When I went out to play
He nipped my toes and fingers
And quickly ran away.
I chased him round the wood-shed,
But, oh! I'm sad to say
That though I chased him everywhere
He simply wouldn't stay.
Jack Frost was in the garden:
But now I'd like to know
Where I can find him hiding;
I've hunted high and low-
I've lost his cloak of silver,
His hat all shimm'ring white,
His wand of glittering star-dust,
His shoes of sunbeam light.

~bluer than ever!~
~morning snow dance on his covered patio!~
Hi Nicky!! How are you? Hope your Christmas is merry as well!! It's my first holiday time without my one son home (in the Marines), so I have a huge missing for him. The webcam closes the miles, when he has a moment to visit that way. Wow. Imagine in times past, how we'd have to wait for 'snail mail' to hear from those in the military??? I can't. I love technology for that, for sure!
Here's my Grace in her
jammies and boots the other morning, coaxing Ruebin to dance out in the snow!! LOL At first, he walked gently on it, testing it out with his toes. She just has a few hand
signals and talks to him sweetly like his 'momma', and he makes this cute
sounding responsive noise that he did when he was a baby...and then,
all the feathers go up, and his feet strike the ground! It's just so
BEAUTIFUL to watch!
Snow-dance-wishings and happy holidays dear friend!! xoxo
