Mirror . . .

Picture
   What do I see looking back at me?
      An aging lady peering to see . . . to see her youth and vitality.

And what does she say to the years
                                creasing lines across her face?
                                             Rejoice!
                             Be Glad!
                       Seize The Day!
For today is yours
                                     You
                                                            Gorgeous 
                                                                       Thing!

Aging is a beautiful process.
​But often our inner critic dims its glory.
So, we must take this detracting voice in hand,
view with optimism the advancing years and
embrace the adventure.
Life is more than the sum of aesthetics and brawn. 
Age offers more than a legacy of what can be seen. 

We are not too old
​It is not too late

    Perched on the edge of his desk, running his hand through his thick, dark hair in eagerness he leans forward  excitedly engaging his students on topics of poetry, prose and literature. His passion . . . was infectious!
    I have each assignment he listed on the syllabus for his college course. They’re stored neatly in a folder and placed in a box where, on occasion, I pull them out and read over the notes he scribbled in red on each paper. Though my college days have long since passed, the passion in his words still hold the power to reignite my own and remind me, once again, of the reason I so love the written word in its various forms; even poetry.

Guffaw Thru Life


It's such fun jumping on beds . . . and couches too and eating pie from the center before serving it to others. I love laughing and I appreciate people who make me. 

Life is amazing with its possibilities. And, I am blessed by the wonderful people in my life and the liberty I have to pursue what brings me joy. In spite of life's griefs, there is peace and joy and love enough to fill all the spaces.


                                                      Zephaniah 3:17
​"The Lord your God is in your midst, a Warrior who gives victory; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will renew you in His love, He will exult over you with songs of deliverance."
