Angels Among Us
March 21, 2010
“We are, each of us angels with only one wing; and we can only fly by embracing one another.”
- Luciano de Crescenzo
Lollipop
March 19, 2010
This is one of those images that I can never get enough of – I find myself magnetically pulled back to it again and again. Sometimes it is just for the sheer beauty of the scene and its subjects. Other times I find myself amused and laughing a bit out loud at the humor and contrast of the precious duo. Sometimes I find myself focusing on the lollipops and I ponder the magic that these delightful bits of sugar on a stick possess. And other times I find myself with a furrowed brow, trying to throw myself into that moment. And I try to recall that simple, pure happiness of childhood – the kind that isn’t tainted by mistakes, and what-ifs, and responsibility and bad decisions. If only for a moment as an adult, I could transport myself into that photo and hold that lollipop and just feel that “rock on” sense of joy. Perhaps a lollipop is the answer?
Happy Trails and a joyous weekend to all… I am off to the store to buy a jumbo sized bag of joy (aka DumDums, Tootsie Pops, Blow Pops)! Why don’t we all enjoy one this weekend??

Beauty and the Book
March 12, 2010
The best of a book is not the thought which it contains,
but the thought which it suggests;
just as the charm of music dwells not in the tones
but in the echoes of our hearts.
~ Oliver Wendell Holmes ~
In My Daughter’s Eyes
March 10, 2010
In my daughter’s eyes I am a hero
I am strong and wise, and I know no fear
But the truth is plain to see
She was sent to rescue me
I see who I want to be
In my daughter’s eyes
- James Slater/Martina McBride
