I believe....

I believe…


1) that serendipity(luck, coincidence) like most things are God in action
2) in the healing powers of laughter
3) that strong friendships with other good women are sustaining
4) in my inner child never being far away from my outer adult
5) in the ability of a good home-cooked meal and a magnificent bottle of wine to bring people together
6) that you can’t hurry love

The weather outside my window

It’s raining soft rain, diagonal crystalline streams

Washing away today’s regrets and yesterday’s sorrows

a crisp, cold breeze blowing through the sky caressing each movable thing, playfully engaging

a multitude of lush, green trees, dancing on the wind right outside my window

they are so very alive, the young ones are jaunty the older ones sway

against a light gray sky, not so cheerfully pretentious as a blue one, and nowhere near as tempestuous as one filled with storm clouds

fat raindrops affix themselves to my window, they cannot miss the show

Visual pictures that lay troubled souls to rest, gentle imagery that soothes even the rawest wounds

The wind whispers through the sound of soft rain,

Healing begins as I watch the weather outside my window.
