+*+*+*+*+ "All the world's a stage", As Shakespeare once did claim, And we're the players on it, Seeking fortune, love, and fame. "All the world's a stage", We each play several roles. The acts, they number seven, From birth, 'til death bell tolls. "All the world's a stage". And life is but a dream, So sip of its sweet nectar, And skim off all the cream. +*+*+*+*+ |

Mistletoe Angel ~ Your name is in season! lol I graciously accept the roses! Toss away! I am especially fond of pale yellow ones at this time! They keep my spirit aloft and happy! Yellow is such a joyful colour! When I think of you, my special friend, I think of the colour yellow! Special thank-you hugs, Linda |

Yay! Awwwwwwww, yellow is my second favorite color of all behind just turquoise, because yellow is such a happy-go-lucky color, and when the sun and a smiley-face are both yellow, it has to be a happy color! Pink is also one of my favorite colors, and I know many would find that silly because I'm male, but I'm not ashamed to admit how pink makes me smile! Have a wonderful yellow day, sweet friend! Love, Noah Eaton "You'll find something that's enough to keep you |

Noah ~ I love turquoise as well! It is the colour of spirit! I wear lots of authentic turquoise jewelry made by native American Indians! I also have Tibetan pieces crafted by master jewelers of Kathmandou! I have both Mother Earth and Father Sky pieces! Spirit hugs, EA |

Ethel Mae ~ Oh, my! You are too kind! ~ Well, in my books, no one can actually ever be "too" kind because I can never get enough kindness! Kindness makes the world ~ and me! ~ glow with happiness! Thank you, Dear Heart. I saved this reply so that I may revisit it whenever I need some sunshine to brighten a dark, cloud day! May you continue to rise and shine! Linda |
