I am so glad that you are my friend, have a beautiful week!
Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some people move our souls to dance. They awaken us to new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom. Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon. They stay in our lives for awhile, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never, ever the same
When a Ya-Ya looks up at a luminous crescent moon in a black velvet sky, somewhere around the world, at that exact same moment, another Ya-Ya sister-friend is seeing it too. We are all connected -- made of the same stardust, dreams, and wild woman emotions.
H Gloria! Thanks for signing on with BEA--Buckeyes for Equal Access--and restoring adoptee rights in Ohio. Tell legislators to say no to tiered access and vetoes. Ohio citizen adoptees deserve to be treated equal to the not-adopted! An original birth certificate is not a privilege. It's a right! Make Ohio BEAutiful!
