I’m sure most people, even those who purchase gifts for their pets during the holidays, probably don’t consider the animals as actually understanding Christmas. Oh, sure, they recognize the changes, notice and even remember things like decorations and trees. Some may even feel the animals remember that there is going to be a stocking in the lineup with dog or cat treats and toys in it. How much, though, do the pets really understand?

Now, I don’t totally dislike the snow. Don’t misunderstand me. A new snow is so beautiful, peaceful, pristine. The fact that this one fell on October 27th, and I had to drive to Cobleskill to get my son to his evening college class in it, though, wasn’t the most peaceful or beautiful moment.

[Click title to read post ...] I’ll be with you in apple blossom time I’ll be with you to change your name to mine May 8th. My parents would have been married 66 years on this day. From my earliest memories, they always cherished the song “Apple Blossom Time” as “their song”. I can’t hear it, or think of it, without my heart going warm and tender, filled with both joy and sorrow. [Click title to read post ...] Judith Simpson was one of the earth’s finest human beings. She and I were friends for many years. Lord, I think it must have been 1994 when we first met on the internet, became friends through Saluki-L, and began to share our common loves. When word came through from our mutual good friend, Willie Towles, yesterday, that Judy had passed away, my heart just crumbled to pieces. [Click title to read post ...] I was angry this morning. This post planned to be a vent, a warning to others, and a way to express the hurt, the anger, the upset I’ve been feeling since my father died on February 26th. And then, just before I opened my site to write the post, I checked my TUT Thought from the Universe for this morning, and found the above. Once again the Universe found a way to smack me upside the head and tell me to think clearly. [Click title to read post ...] Just who was this St Valentine, anyway? [Click title to read post ...] We’ve all been asked the question, “What would you do if you had a million dollars?” What would your answer be? Would you be philanthropic with your money? Would you invest it in your future? Would you put your kids through college? Would you simply start by catching up on bills and debts? The dark days of winter lead me to odd contemplations, to mental meanderings, to vivid daydreams as I gaze out the frost-painted windows onto the cold, white landscape. One of those meanderings has been to revisit that old question. What would I do with a million dollars? [Click title to read post ...] Silent Night, Holy Night…. It’s a quiet day, somewhat melancholy, the silence of Christmas fills my home. Things change, they evolve, they grow, they die, and they always remain the same. Christmas time brings that to light in the most joyful … and sorrowful … way….. [Click title to read post ...] I was chatting in email with a friend this morning, and the topic of “vibration” came up. It’s had me thinking since, and as a pebble tossed into a pond spreads ripples toward the shore, those thoughts have led to this post. Vibration. Everything, whether it is something we think of as living, or [Click title to read post ...] |
