Hey guess what everyone??!!
I found a really good deal on some clogs and a DVD that teaches you how to clog! I'm so excited, and can hardly wait to get started. The thunder of tiny dancing feet will sound great on my expansive wooden floors.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again.
The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together.... (I'll see you again one day, Miss Frankie)

On this day of your life, Lille, I believe God wants you to know...
....that obstacles are not opposing you, but merely and
gently re-routing you.
It is important not to view that which stands in your
way as your 'enemy.' It can often be your best friend,
sending you on a detour that takes you around what
could have been your biggest stumbling block.
Send a word of gratitude, then, for anything that seems
to be 'opposing' you now. All things in life happen for
good. Trust God about that.
Love, Your Friend....
Thank you, Nolly Posh, my precious friend down under who often guides me by her peaceful, loving examples of who I want to be spiritually when I grow up. Her recent post led me to discover another road map to help me find my way to become that person. If times allows, please read other posts Nolly has written. You'll feel her love, sense her sincerity and will be inspired by her ability to sparkle like a ray of sunshine in spite of personal health challenges that seek to cloud her world with discouragement. She is every bit the most courageous woman you'd ever want to meet.

When Everything Changes, Change Everything:
In a Time of Turmoil, a Pathway to Peace
"A dear one has died. Or a romantic relationship has ended. Or a job that was once going to be your career has just evaporated. Or your child has left home. Or you've moved to a new town. Or you're suddenly facing a health crisis, or a financial crisis, or a crisis of faith . . .
. . . whatever the circumstance, you are sure about one thing: Nothing will ever be the same.
Deep sadness, even bitter negativity, can sometimes follow. What to do then? End the life you've been living? Yes. That's the startling answer from modern-day spiritual messenger Neale Donald Walsch in a book that will touch the lives of people around the world with the same uplifting hopefulness as his Conversations with God.
When Everything Changes, Change Everything speaks to the heart of every person who has lost their bearings in the aftermath of a major life change—and to those who would help them. A strikingly clear, imminently and immediately useful text, it offers God-inspired insights on the way to move on and a breathtaking reason to do so. Here is a practical application of the fresh perspectives of the New Spirituality, with wonderful tools for healing and living and a brand-new definition of God that could make every mystery of life clear up overnight."
