Word of the Day






If the sight of the blue skies fills you with joy, if a blade of grass springing up in the fields has power to move you, if the simple things in nature have a message you understand, rejoice, for your soul is alive.
Eleanora Duse (Italian actress known as Duse)

Such a lovely photo...such a blue sky and what kind of tree? Spring is like a surprise gift every day...who knows what will capture our attention when we look out a window, a door or walking around outside.

Ah the Jacaranda trees of my childhood. I really needed this now, coughing and feeling miserable, expecting I have to die to feel better and there you are, bringing me soup for the soul, and not the chicken kind either. I love you, you are dear to my heart in ways that are hard to express. I hope you know that.
