As the winds do blow,
So do I on stormy days,
Going with the flow.

At one with the wind,
I breeze past all maelstroms,
Flying strong and free.

Oh, I suppose the T in Mr. T. stands for Tumbleweed! Now why don't you post that picture of yourself! It may not be as handsome as your present photo, but it definitely would be good for a laugh every morning! lol

You're back! Thank you for leaving such a wonderful birthday message! I was delighted to see your name--and the birthday blessings!
That was very special!

I'm a lover of fresh air! I even keep my bedroom window in the winter and have often wakened up to snow all over me!

(smiles) Yay! Oh Linda, I'm so happy to read your gorgeous words again, dearest friend, there sure was a lot of wind in Ireland, but beautiful calm wind! (kiss on cheek) May your graceful spirit always fly free like the little girl in your heart, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Hi, Kirah! Sorry I missed responding to your reply until now.

To answer your question, the wind I am one with is warm on bitter cold days. When the weather is hot and stifling, I am at one with a cool and refreshing breeze...

Well, this certainly was a pleasant surprise! --and it also gave me the opportunity to respond to Kirah's and Marti's replies which I had somehow overlooked.

Thanks for the kind words and the bump in the night! lol
