I am far from a philosopher. I do not even claim that I can impart
any sage advice about life and love.
But, I do know one thing. One simple little thing that has become
my Life Mantra.
Love Is All You Need.
There have been times in my life when I thought, for certain,
that Love had forsaken me. I would put on a silly little hat and a
frilly dress to match, maybe even some sparkly shoes – and then
I would proceed to have myself a royal Pity Party – for One.
Little did I know – I was always surrounded by Love.
Over the past few weeks, following my Daddy’s stroke, I have witnessed
first hand the power of Love.
The Love that my Mama has for my Daddy.
The Love that my sister has for me.

Beautiful said Barb, and you are right LOVE is what it is all about, that is for sure. When it is all said and done it is our loved ones that we want to be surrounded by. I think you gave very wise and sage advice today and a good reminder of how precious time with the people we love can be. Love YOU! Kathysue

Aint that the truth! So often, what we have, what we need, is right here at our fingertips, staring us in the face! Sometimes, it takes a major challenge to pull a family closer. My parents were the glue that kept me and my four sibs connected. it’s not the same with out them.
