My daughter.
My cousin.
A renewed relationship with my Sister, who was “lost” for many years.
Myself. I am trying to heal & care for myself, after being my mother & brother’s only caregiver for 1.5 years. Having been displaced from my home on the West Coast, I am back. I need lots of tending to, as does my “home”.
My faith.

I write.
I write thoughtful, heartfelt notes to family & friends.
Often I do pen drawings on the notes I send.
I collect art postcards, & place them all over my home, a little art museum of my own! 🙂

By being kind, compassionate & loving to All…

I contribute to this world by being ME. I am unique, there is only one ME. I try to be the best version of ME as possible. I have worked very hard in these last many years on myself. I am a work in progress.
I try to be kind always. I try to navigate my day by blessing those around me. I pray…..I know I have a long way to go, to learn. I am open to growing. I am trying to be a positive force in my “neighborhood”.
Be Well All….❤️🙏

My mantra as of the last year or so….
Faith over Fear.
Some days I have trouble remembering it. I often need gentle reminders. I am not in control. All is Well. Blessings to All here. 🙏

Offering words of encouragement, either thru text, phone calls or sending a card. Prayer…sending prayers up, on their behalf. And listening….🙏

Practicing gratefulness puts me in a happy & content frame of mind. I feel uplifted, I feel better in this state of mind than the other, angry, upset, annoyed etc., etc…being grateful just feels good. I believe that so much of healing is our attitude. Having a grateful attitude, being positive, I believe are elixirs to aid in the healing process.

The tree out my kitchen window that is starting to drop its leaves & change color; green to yellow.
The blue sky with wispy, foggy clouds above.
Birds singing, little kids chirping & chatting on their way to school.
I am thankful for all of it. 🙏

I feel calm & at peace. Happy all over.

Kevin, I too fear for the USA & what’s to come. Like Samuel wrote “God is in charge”. I try to hold onto that thought & pray my a.. off! I truly believe good will win out, it may just take some time. God bless you & yours. 🙏❤️

Elaine, thank you so much for your work to save old growth forests. It breaks my heart, the rampant disrespect for our majestic trees that seems to be the “normal”. I worship the mighty Redwoods in my neck of the woods, No. California. Thank you for your concern & commitment. Blessings to you…🌲🍁🌲🍁🌲
