Even though spring has just begun, my husband knew that I was a little down one day when we were out four wheeling (probably because I wasn't talking incessantly tehee) but he was IN TUNE with my heart and mind and the state of my being. THIS is one of the small difference of which i spoke on my last post...just as I stared into the sunset, taking in all the diversity and beauty around me yet still in an internal slumped state (although that mask showed a smile)...he listened to my internal voice without my awareness of it. He knew that I just needed a little human touch of kindness out of no where...and here he came with a collection of foliage gathered in a bouquet for me. It consisted of fall leftover beauty mingled with new growth of the season. THIS is the small touches, the small differences of which i speak. It takes but a moment in ones day to change another's outlook or pull them from their inner turmoil....if only for a moment....that moment is PRICELESS!!

Thank you Ctrygirl, for your honesty and for your love that you so freely offer us all. You are a very special person in this world, perhaps small in footprint but huge in results. I call it the ripple effect - you constantly toss that pebble into the pond, creating ripples that effect so many. Thank you, my friend.

Thank you so much Louie. You're opinion means so much to me, for you reach out and touch so many hearts and souls each day through your uplifting of those dark clouds with the power of the pen. You don't know how much it means to hear from you and thank you beyond words for the compliments. If only I could somehow make that ripple reach the other edge and slowly, methodically bounce back again, perhaps I could help someone in need, somehow, some small way, AS YOU DO!! I miss ya!
