"We need each other.

We are of one family and

family never gives up on family."

~Bob Perks

Faith is like the air in a balloon.

If you've got it you're filled.

If you don't, you're empty.

~ Peggy Cahn

Always respect your wholeness.

When the opportunity arises,

help another nurture their wholeness.

Abandoned Places N Things

Christmas Countdown

Yellow roses just for you!

Such pretty gals from another time.

The knee highs and snow white

dresses with shoes to match.

This looks like a photographer's

talent in capturing those days of old.

This makes me shiver with cold,
but what a neat sleigh-sled and
a beautiful sunrise.

A taste of another season in waiting.

And I think I seen that big
fish go that-a-way!

Another look at just one of God's
many beautiful creatures and flower.

Just when you think you have seen
all of the many uses and the display
of Mason jar creations, another one appears.

Ready for Santa with our
Santa hats on display.

How delicious looking is this?

Time to pick out just the right suit
