View all from a place,
Full of love and forgiveness,
And peace shall be yours.
As your peace spreads to others
So it reflects back to you.

I DO believe you're right, Linda.  Thanks for the nice thoughts.   *hugs*

The stars will shine when I am gone,
the earth will turn on as before,
the gulls, still race along the shore,
the morning star, still kiss the dawn

If we all did this, there would never be the need for anyone or any country to declare war on another. Then there truly would be heaven on earth.

terribly wise and beautifully written

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Provided, of course, that one knows a place that offers such a vista.

I still seek

Lovely thoughts, Linda

Hello Linda

So beautiful and so very true were your lovely words.  Here is a little something for you (not written by me):

"In our life
there is a single color,
as on an artist's palette
which provides the
meaning of life and art.
It is the color of love."

Wishing you much joy and love at Christmas.

Take care.......Sue

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you
