Wild Fact About Me Where would I begin?? lol
My Philosophy Trials can make us better or bitter... It's a choice.

Make no judgements where you have no compassion. ~ Anne McCaffrey

With every deed you are sowing a seed, though the harvest you may not see. ~ Ella Wheeler Wilcox

**I believe we are spiritual beings having a human experience... not the other way around. And realizing this has changed my perspective & understanding on everything.

I believe in the Ripple Effect...
What Gives Me Hope Places like this... and people who care and believe we can make a difference.

A baby's smile... full of innocence, wonder, and unabashed joy.

The innocence and purity of children.

The innocence, purity, and unconditional love of animals.

I believe the world as a whole... is undergoing a spiritual awakening.

Random act's of kindness... they're not so difficult... and they also give SO much to the giver... why do so many consider this such a foreign concept?

Noble acts in this chaotic and sometimes very discouraging world.
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by
What/who changed my life and why Anna B... in spirit now. She was my stand in grandmother who was a tenant and family friend who lived upstairs from us thruout my childhood... She was full of endless love, taught me much, and influenced my childhood profoundly... greatly impacting who I am today.

My mother... whom I am proud to call my best friend, as well as Mom.

My two deceased brother's... losing them so young... and in the ways in which they passed... affected me in ways I cannot begin to describe. (One to suicide at age 28 when I was 19... one to AIDS complications when I was 28 and he was 39.)

Don... a friend who's fallen out of touch... but who helped me see possibilities, shed old fears & constraints, and embrace... me.

My animal companion's... past and present.

More, but that's enough to share here. :)

Quotation We frail humans are at one time capable of the greatest good and, at the same time, capable of the greatest evil. Change will only come about when each of us takes up the daily struggle ourselves to be more forgiving, compassionate, loving, and above all joyful in the knowledge that, by some miracle of grace, we can change as those around us can change too. ~ Maíread Maguire

There is no Challenge more challenging than the challenge to improve yourself. ~ Michael F. Staley

Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood. ~ Helen Keller

To be loved for what one is, is the greatest exception. ~ Goethe

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. ~ Mahandas Gandhi

"In the glow of the dawn,
Welcome a new day,
Greet the golden sunlight or rain,
Nature in all its subtlety.
Whip of the wind,
Earth unfolds,
Softly falling rain,
Growing plants and buds blossoming.
Visions of the earth, with glories of nature,
Beauty of the daffodils,
Sunshine and rain from a rainbow,
Awe! Nature in full bloom."

- Blanche Black - "Springtime"

 

 I wish you a great Spring week
my dear Friend.
With Love

"Grown men can learn from
very little children for the hearts
of the little children are pure.
Therefore, the Great Spirit
may show to them many things
which older people miss."

- Black Elk - Oglala Sioux Holy Man



... listen the children's wisdom dear Friend.
They are the future.

A hundred hearts would be too few
to carry all my love for you my Friend.
Some love lasts a lifetime.
True love lasts forever.
That is the time that Friend's Love lasts.

 

... I wish you my dearest Friend
a bright Valentine's Day
With Love
Ana

"The Beautiful Earth"

The glitening sun is shining
On the sparkling water,
The sparkling water is connecting
To the blue endless ocean
That is great and is as beautiful
As a bachelor button flower,
So simple and perfect 
Blue and red
Like the sunset sky
The glorious sunset
That brings peace
For me, for you, for all
That brings peace to Mother Earth!



... I wish you a weekend
full of peace my sweet friend
With Love
Ana

A butterfly in the wind

A child is...
A butterfly in the wind,
Some can fly higher than others;
But each one flies the best they can.
Why compare one against the other?
Each one is different!
Each one is special!
Each one is beautiful!




I wish you a great friday and 
a wonderful weekend my special friend 
With Love
Ana

"Great spirits have always found
violent opposition from mediocrities.
The latter cannot understand it
when a man does not thoughtlessly
submit to hereditary prejudices,
but honestly and courageously
uses his intelligence and
fulfills the duty to express the results
of his thought in clear form."
Albert Einstein



... my dear friend
With Love

"Unless each day can be looked back
upon by everyone as one in which
 we have had some fun, some joy,
 some real satisfaction, that day is a loss."



... so sweet friend Carpe diem and be happy

What is a Poem
 A poem is hidden in the soundlessspeechless soft clouds
Tossing turning twisting
in the crystal clear aquamarine sky
Look inside a pleasing pretty flower
Climb immeasurable immenseimpressive mountains
If you find a poem handle it carefully
Like a newborn puppy
For a poem can die or slip through fingers
Like creamy butter
And be lost in the dark streets
Look in places where you
 have never been before
And there you might find a poem
Lost somewhere in the soft clouds
The clear sky or a pretty flower
Waiting for you!
by Amber Hickman (aged 8)


Have a great week
Ana
