SPRINGING AHEAD!
Welcome friends!
A lovely spring day it is! Happy Easter to all of my friends who are celebrating today. I can hear the sounds of many very full and grumbling stomachs from all of the feasting!
Life is going along at a good clip, you might say that I am springing ahead! At least I am springing forward, due to the time change.
I have just completed a children’s book for my lovely youngest Granddaughter, Trinity. Her book was just published on Create Space, an Amazon company. I should receive my books in a few days.
As many of may know, I love creating with photos. This book, Trinity’s Adventures in Imagination, is a birthday gift for my Granddaughter. I have photo-shopped Trinity into some wonderful scenes, and each photo has a rhyme to go with it. I am hoping she loves the book!
Here are some blessings for you from John O’Donohue!
Enjoy!

“For Equilibrium, a Blessing:
Like the joy of the sea coming home to shore,
May the relief of laughter rinse through your soul.
As the wind loves to call things to dance,
May your gravity by lightened by grace.
Like the dignity of moonlight restoring the earth,
May your thoughts incline with reverence and respect.
As water takes whatever shape it is in,
So free may you be about who you become.
As silence smiles on the other side of what’s said,
May your sense of irony bring perspective.
As time remains free of all that it frames,
May your mind stay clear of all it names.
May your prayer of listening deepen enough
to hear in the depths the laughter of god.”
