she cannot



but maybe she will anyway.....

Dear World

 
 
Do you think things will be all right? How long does the world have till it is done? Will it ever be a happy, safe place to live? Is God tired of this mess? Why do we still have so many Haves and Have Nots? Where can we go to find peace? What if I just give up? Was it ever worth it?
 
I get so angry when I watch the news or read the paper. I get so sad when I see how people treat people. I get so confused when I think of all the good God has for us and how much we waste and ignore our blessings.
 
Oh, my dear world, you are so different from what I remember as a child. You are so not what I hoped to find by this time in my life. You are so close to being extinct.
 
What can I do to help but PRAY?

will I be able to create full time every day? will it make a difference to anyone but me?
I need time to create. it heals my hurting broken lost soul.

we all have two or more stories



and the most interesting ones are between the lines of the public story.

slow down and enjoy every minute with those you love



It's all gone too fast.

invite your creativity out to play


An artist must take time to play, explore, experiment, and let the imagination flow.

It is what it is

 
 

art and writing beckons me
calls come and go
hopes float by
dreams sustain me
fears linger
but
pray I do
 
life happens to me
family and friends need me
joy is a goal
struggles cause conflict
worries consume me
but
pray I still do
 
the sun is my brother
the moon my sister
the trees are my monuments
the flowers my awards
grace is my home
but
prayers I lift
 
alone I am free
smothered I falter
love strengthens me
hatred weakens me
mercy is my support
but
prayers I make

Devotionals give us words to consider and focus on for our needs


this devotional page is 4 1/2 years old but it spoke to me then and it still does today...

my new self portrait



recognize your blessings and gifts and talents and SHARE THEM


where did her life go

Life has a way of getting past before we live in the present. Alzheimer's Disease speeds up the process. As a person's memories are twisted and confused and worse, taken completely, we wonder where did the life go?

there is a time for ugly art

Alzheimer is a cruel thing....
 
 
dementia is cruel, it robs loved ones as they were and the rest of us as we are...
memories fade and reverse and confuse.....
 
 
if only there was a cure

use what you have
