Marge, this is spectacular. I feel the Holy Ground when I look out my window and see the forests and the mountains. A wonderful picture and stunning words of thought. And thank you for the word lesson and usage. This reminds me of Barbra Streisand's, On Holy Ground, from her album, Higher Ground. hugs and luvs, Marti Living simply and calmly in the mountains! |
