Don't Worry...

These Lines on my face

I once knew a woman With lines on her face Who’d lived most her life In a much different place

A place where those lines Were respected, revered Where it was known They held the wealth of her years

And here, in a place That was scared to grow old She made us all realise The beauty age holds

For one day she stood And attracted a crowd She started to speak As we all gathered round

And we hung on each word, We were all mesmerised For her voice was so powerful, Knowing and wise

She smoothed down the crown Of her hair on her head Then she lifted her chin And her voice as she said

“These lines are not something To hide or to fear But something that says ‘I have lived, I was here’

They’re not to be counted Like bars of a cage But like rings of a tree That grows stronger with age

Grounded and grand Persevering and proud I’ve earned every stripe So I’ll wear them out loud

And though you might think I’d look better with none Just wait til you learn How I earned every one

Because I’m much more Than the way that I look And these lines on my face Are like lines from a book

That holds all the tales Of the things gone before me So come, take a seat And I’ll tell you my story”

I cannot imagine what you have been through this past year. Shorter days and colder weather certainly is not helping.

I'm always just a phone call away. Call daily if you want or need a pick-me-up chat!!

Your future looks bright! 🌞🌟

EARLY MORNING RISING SISTERS

I met with 4am last night

She said to say hello

And she said she’s seen a lot of you

Since several weeks ago

She said she hears your worries

When you’re lying there awake

But she’d rather watch you sleeping

With a smile upon your face

So she’s gathered up your worries

And she feeds them to the stars

And they swallow them with fire

‘Til they’re left with only half

Then they whisper to the sun

As she begins her morning climb

And the sunshine takes your worries

And accepts them every time

She chops them into pieces

‘Til she’s left with merely grains

Then she throws them to the clouds

So they can gently fall as rain

And the sunlight then transforms

Your drops of worry into hope

So that rainbow that you see?

That’s 4am saying hello

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.

Live the life you have imagined.” ― Henry David Thoreau

Been awhile since I posted.

It's been a tough month for you. Don't let the sadness bring you down too far. There is a lot of encouragement for you from Heaven and from here on earth. Keep your chin up. You got this!!

~Nanny

I hope your day is going well

Can't wait for...

...the day when we are both open for "Rediscovery"

Prayers Answered

So many blessing to be thankful for today.

YES, SHE IS!!!

Day after surgery

Instead of expressing, "I know what it feels like," I will say, "I cannot imagine what you are going through."

Rather than stating, "You're strong, and you'll get through this," I will convey, "You'll hurt, and I'll be here." (somehow, someway)

Instead of commenting, "You look like you're doing well," I might ask, "How are you holding up today?"

Rather than saying, "Healing takes time," I could express, "Healing has no timeline."

Instead of suggesting, "Everything happens for a reason," I can acknowledge, "This must feel so terribly senseless right now."

And in moments where words seem absent, it's perfectly okay not to search for them. Love can also be communicated through silence. (Or through a Blog Post)

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:6-7)

YOU ARE BREAKING THROUGH...

When life breaks you,

it is because you are ready

to be put back together differently.

Every piece of you that feels shattered

is a piece that will find a new place,

a new purpose, a new meaning.

Trust that the cracks are where

the light gets in.

And sometimes, in our brokenness,

we find our greatest wholeness.

We find the courage to rebuild,

to reimagine, to redefine

what it means to be strong.

You are not broken; you are breaking through ...

What Cancer Cannot Do

Cancer is so limited...

It cannot cripple love.

It cannot shatter hope.

It cannot corrode faith.

It cannot destroy peace.

It cannot kill friendship.

It cannot suppress memories.

It cannot silence courage.

It cannot invade the soul.

It cannot steal eternal life.

It cannot conquer the Spirit.

~Author Unknown

It also cannot squash dreams for the future. ~Nanny

Adventures await!!

Michigan awaits you.....So many places to explore.
