I even consider my creative output, be it a blog post or writing a poem, as an alone moment.<br /><br />I hope 2010 does not call for too many "alone moments" for you, Carmi. Let it be rich with family and friends and all they bring to your life. <br /><br />Happy New Year.torontopearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12246510242496347242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-8365085143568390382010-01-01T07:52:53.006-05:002010-01-01T07:52:53.006-05:00I go to the river too.... or along the shoreline o...I go to the river too.... or along the shoreline of the Bay of Fundy if I'm lucky. I also have a room downstairs which is cozy and full of photos and artwork. Funny, the music that plays in there just happens to be some of my favourites. I wonder why? :)<br /><br />Tranquility is such a fleetingly beautiful feeling. When it alights, be it while admiring the reflection of the trees on the water or when we immerse ourselves in a song that stirs our soul, I believe we are visited by God's serence grace. To have it happen during a period of deep mourning Carmi is a gift of feeling loved don't you think? <br /><br />Happy New Year my friend.....to you and your beautiful family. May 2010 offer you many opportunities to experience tranquility.awarenesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06098432781380754899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-7550275821275262562009-12-31T18:30:54.449-05:002009-12-31T18:30:54.449-05:00I remember the first New Year's Eve after my m...I remember the first New Year's Eve after my mom died...it was almost exactly 6 months later, and I also wanted to forget 2002, but it almost seemed as though that day in July was the beginning of a year, not part of one. However you look at it, find the peace where you can - the bridge is a beautiful place to be. For me, as you know, it's Centennial Park, at the lake. Still is, has been for 7+ years.<br /><br />But peace is easily found with those you love and who love you, and I know that you are surrounded. They, and you, have the luck so many people never find in companionship and togetherness; but you are also surrounded by so many around the country and the world, connected by these wires and motherboards. That is something to revel in, think about, and cherish - which I know you do.<br /><br />Much love to you and the family, and a wish for that peace to find you easily.<br /><br />Love and hugs!lissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05505435869876658799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-19105484716185149672009-12-31T17:46:15.623-05:002009-12-31T17:46:15.623-05:00Stunning shot, Carmi!
