Still Winter....

Mother Winter is not leaving us yet...still snowing...big, white, easy snow flakes float in the air above us. It's so cold. Everywhere red noses, white trees, sad people. The fluffy clouds let the sun send some of his glimmer, but too little. I remember how I loved this time of the year on I was small...I still love it.

This silence...EVERYTHING is quiet.... nothing moves, no one speaks... no sounds, no voices, no music...just a deep silence covering all things around me... my feelings and my thoughts are mute... a moment in time, a point in a millon... trying to touch the sky. but not able to make a move, trying to see beyond the clouds and I am blind...

Family The Greatest Gift

We only have one family in this World, one life. Don't wait for tomorrow to tell your family you love them.

"The family. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together." Erma Bombeck

If the family were a fruit, it would be an orange, a circle of sections, held together but separable - each segment distinct. ~Letty Cottin Pogrebin

Father! - to God himself we cannot give a holier name. ~William Wordsworth
