You'll be my love...

You'll be my love...

A sneak peak at one of the many photo art creations that will be at the upcoming
Photo Exposition Fundraiser Event for the Vaudreuil-Soulanges Palliative Care Residence..
November 30th ~ Harwood Galerie ~ Vaudreuil, Hudson

All my photos have a story and an inspirational quote usually written by me. For this one I could not have written a better quote. I titled this one, Who'll be my love , which was inspired by a Cat Stevens song, ruby my love, that was playing while working on the exposition. I thought the words went very well with the story of this photo capture.

Who'll be my love

You'll be my love

You'll be my sky above

Who'll be my light

You'll be my light

You'll be my day and night

You'll be mine tonight

Hand stained photo art frames and photo laminations, in various sizes will be part of the photo exposition fundraiser as well as many other photo creations and goodies, wine and cheese, music by Mark Drisdelle and good times.

Hope you will come join us, to help support this community cause.

Spring ~ Summer Decor Trends & inspirations...

2010-05-18T14:58:00.001-04:00

miycreations.com, Miy inspirations, miy, at home decor with Maddy

Inspirations comes from many places, I would even say that we all inspire each other in many ways. As a designer, one of my favorite things to do is simply go window shopping...no buying. I like to see the retail trends and then I put my on interpretations and twist into my creations. Sometimes its a fabric or a colour that will inspire me, or a shape or a unique detail. It's never just one thing as a whole, its a combination of bits and pieces of the things I have seen. It can even be a fashion item I saw on a walker by. I always come back from these excursions most inspired. I always look at it all as a whole, the decorations, the fashions, the buildings, all of it inspires me in one form or an other. These are some of the items that caught my creative eye and spirit this season while in Montreal window shopping and at the Montreal Spring Gift Show which is for trade only (so you can get an concept of what up and coming).

After I see things that inspire me, I let them simmer, I kayak, I get inspired by nature and then when I make things, I get a creative serge that leads the way to a new creation.

are you ready to cheer, the Winter 2010 Olympics are finally here ;)

Miy Olympic Spirit Cape...
Show your Olympic colours & pride to cheer on all the Athletes for the 2010 Winter Olympic Games.

Believe....feel the Canadian Olympic Spirit!
I made this Olympic Spirit cape as my tribute and way to cheer on all the Athletes for the 2010 Vancouver Olympic games. I actually made the Olympic Spirit cape especially for when the Olympic Flame came to our quaint little Town of Hudson, Québec, on December 8th. It was really special to be part of all the excitement and Olympic fever.

Make your own Olympic Spirit cape, it’s a fashionable way to stay warm and cozy while watching the various Olympic sport events live or on television. Actually you can wear the Olympic Spirit Cape all year round ;) I know I will!

You can view the front of the Olympic Spirit Cape on my website, It has an Inukshuk symbol on the front!

Prayers for Haiti...

Information and ways to help Haiti visit www.google.com/relief/haitiearthquake/

I was working away today trying to catch up with everything with the holidays finally being over, and many projects on the go, report dues ect... almost even feeling frazzled by it all ...and then I get an email from Salwan .. yes it made me stop and pray. I would like to share with you his message...

Hello Friends,
Sorry to bother you but it is urgent...you know what happened hours ago in Haiti...
Let us spiritually join today/tonight even for few minutes to pray for the victims and families of the victims in Haiti that was struck by a disastrous earthquake leaving many people in the open facing harsh cold winter nights, and many others probably still alive but under debris!!!..I received this call for online joint prayers from my dear friend LuAnn Hunt and would like you to join us in this effort despite the fact that we are all busy...I also know that some people don't believe in the spiritual power of prayers or in spiritual world...I understand and respect all your beliefs but still I believe it is a great thing to, even for several minutes, remember other brothers and sisters in humanity who are in pain today...

May God bless you all...Thanks in advance...

-- Salwan Binni www.flickr.com/photos/37475938@N08/

I felt his prayers in this letter ... so I took the time to send prayers to Haiti.
I took my old photo album out and revisit Haiti as I saw it in 1980. It was my first trip abroad exactly 30 years ago at this time. It was also the first time I did not see snow for Christmas and New Years. I had gone for one month with my uncle and his wife and friend. I was most fortunate to have experiences this trip in such a unique way. My uncle is an architect and he was scouting out land with my fiancee at the time. We did not spend this trip like a tourist, we lived with the people, in a hunt (well barely, a roof and two walls). But had the best trip ever! I was really touched by the people, their stories and the land, the culture.

Needless to say that after I did take the time to pray for others , somehow I was able to work in much more peace afterwords.

Namaste

Remembrance Day Tribute ~ Hudson Parade!

2009-11-09T19:50:00.006-05:00

A Day of Remembrance..... The Remembrance Day Parade which took place yesterday in Hudson, Quebec Canada, was indeed a day to remember by all. Their Spirits live on!

This is a most touching capture, because as I write this I am most chocked up.
In this photo Hayden Paterson (my son) is showing Kaiden Parkinson and me the poppy the cubs made for him while he was away due to his father's passing away just a few weeks ago, after a long battle with cancer. I was most touched by the cubs own tribute and proud at the same time that people have big hearts and such compassion, proud of the boys. Bob Parkinson was a dear Soul, a wonderful Husband to Lianna, a father of five, in a few words, a great man, also a well respected council member of the Hudson Community. He made his mark in many of us. His Spirit will live on. As such as all those who where here before us, and for us. I give Thanks to have share this moment, parade and day with these two boys.

Let us remember so we don't forget. Remember the men and women who fought for our country, for they are our heroes! We have all that we have because of theme we are blessed and fortunate to live in such a wonderful beautiful and free country because of theme...Thank you!...and peace to all! The cubs made this beautiful wreath with by cutting poppy flower shapes in craft foam. I thought it was most creative. Wonderful creation and tribute by the Cavagnal Cubs pack. Great job boys ;)

2009-10-10T14:46:00.003-04:00

Giving Thanks ~ For our bountiful blessings
With all that is going on in the world with the economy these days; it is now even more important then ever to count our bountiful blessings rather the dwell on the things that we do not have. What the world needs is not for people to get stuck in the spiral negative energy of fear. Do the opposite, the more we are grateful for what we do have to more we are sending out good energy into the world around us. Thanksgiving is for giving thanks
for our many blessings....if we all did this everyday, the world would be a much better place, ! When you say "I Give Thanks" with genuine gratitude.... You will feel its joy instantly....for these are gifts of true of blessings
Happy Thanksgiving...Blessings and most of all enjoy! Maddylane

Spirit in the Skies...

2009-07-23T10:59:00.005-04:00

Forgiving others starts by forgiving ourselves, and then you are able to send others light, and the Spirits in the skies will do the rest....It's like letting go... and letting God!

Kayaking is a great way to feel closer to the source, its when I ask my questions...and get my answers, when im still enough to truly listen.
I'll Stand by you...was the answer I received...How cool was that for an answer, it came with a picture, its doesn't get any clearer then that!!!!

Enjoy this day!

With a sad heart I bid you both Farewell.... and say Thank you for having shared your dear spirits with us in very special ways, your joyful memories will remain as imprints upon our Souls and your legacies will live on as a burning flame in our hearts.

Happy Father's Day.... Photo and quote by Maddylane

Happy Father's Day....

Happy Father's Day....

My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, he believed in me.
Fathers Day Quote by: Jim Valvano

Growing up being the middle of 5 children, I thought I was the forgotten child, so I became very independent and self sufficient and lived my life as such. My father was a very quiet man and a very brilliant man, who didn’t really say much but when he did, I not only listen, I remember. A few years ago at my grandmother (my mother’s mother) funereal, after I gave the eulogy my father came up to me with a teary eye and frog in his throat and he said something to me that I’ll never forget. Actually he said this to me years ago as well but in a different way but I did not know what he meant until this moment. Years ago as a young teenager he had said to me, “You can choose to be your worst enemy or your own best friend… its up to you, its your choice!”
That day, he said this to me (I don’t remember the exact words, but it was something like this)…, I’m so proud of you, I have watched from afar over the years because you have not let me in, but glad to see that you have chosen to become your own best friend. He then went on to say that when I was up there on the podium, it had touched him deeply it gave him chills because he said he had a vision of me becoming a motivational or spiritual speaker, because he said I glowed… I looked at him in total amazement and sock, (I remember think that was really an unusual thing to say to someone) yet I was so touched by what he had just shared with me from the heart, I will never forget… for this is the ultimate a father can say to his daughter. Je t’aime Papa, and thank you for always believing in me, even when I didn’t ..you did... how blind was I not to see the love that was there all along. and I can only hope to be able to pass on these life lessons to my own children)

To all my flickr friends that are father’s…God bless you all, hugs...Enjoy your day!

Happy Mother's Day Weekend ...

2009-05-08T16:51:00.000-04:00

This is a reminder to take lost of pictures with your children this weekend, for these precious times just go by to fast. I have so many pictures of my boys, but none with me and my two boys together. I was looking for a picture with my two sons together, and realized I didn't have many. I'm still without my camera until Monday, but I will find one or borrow one and make sure I have pictures with my two sons. This one is with Hayden taken when he was younger.

If you need inspiration for your Mother's Day card, I just posted a page full of some of my favorite Mother's Day quotes. www.miycreations.com

This was my favorite of them all, because it got to my hearth strings.

Mothers hold their children's hands
only for such a short while,
but their hearts forever.

Enjoy your Weekend ;)
Happy Mother's Day

Apricot and mango Spread ... (No Sugar Recipe)

2009-04-25T11:08:00.000-04:00

MIY Apricot and Mango Spread... (No Sugar)

People are always asking me why I’m so slim for my age….Hahahah..Well...
Here’s my secret, it's purely simple, I simply don’t eat sweets or junk food.... it's not
because I don’t like them, it's because they don’t agree with my body, so I listen to my body and I don't eat them. Paying attention to what you eat and how they react to your body is all part of a healthier you lifestyle.

I’m the type of cook that likes to cook with a bit of this and that. I keep cooking simple, except for Sunday family dinners. I like to cook with what I call “how did you make that" recipe? When I go to people house’s for dinner or parties, when I like something, I always ask how did you make that? That’s pretty much how I gather most of my recipes, by word of mouth (no need to write them down) and taste of course! As I make it, I usually add something else to it to make it a bit different....then they come to my house and say, hey "How did you make that?"

For those who don’t like or can’t eat sugar like diabetics; Here’s a super easy recipe to
make no sugar added apricot and mango spread. Even if you like sugar this recipe is so
easy you will want to try it, because it taste great. My kids love it (plus they don’t know
there’s no sugar). It’s perfect to make in the spring and winter time when fresh fruits are
not as abundant. It’s so easy you can make this spread almost anywhere anything,
from the cottage to even camping. You really can't go wrong with this super easy recipe.

To see how easy it is to make this spread...have look, visit and let me know what you think!!!!
This is something new that i'm doing on my site, is adding O so easy recipes, with step-by-step photo recipes...

Happy Earth Day....

2009-04-22T11:53:00.003-04:00

Happy Earth day… Let us give thanks by loving our planet.

I was wondering how to market and launch my new book of poetry for the Heart and Soul titled “Mystical Journey”. Since this is a book about the celebration of our earth and our place in it, what better day then to do it on Earth Day.

I wrote this book from a deeper place within me, my spirit and that is why on the book I wrote that it was written by miyspirit. Also, many of you have encouraged me in the last year to do a book with my quotes and stories. Well here it is finally after much of a leaning curve in the book making business. When I was inspired to make this book my goal was that I had hope this book would inspire others to reconnect with our earth and source. I even wrote on the last page…
I hope you have enjoyed this book, for I truly enjoyed making it.
If even, but one photo, quote or story share smiles or speaks to you in one way or another, then this book has served its purpose.

Last night I was inspired by a very gracious lady (Suzanne Williams from Ontario Canada) and her most encouraging dear words which truly left me speechless. Thank you Suzanne I am most touched and humbled by your testimonial. Suzanne you have no idea how overjoyed I was to hear that you have so enjoyed this book but most of all that it has spoken to your Soul, made it all worth it. I was not sure how people would react to it. I thought I would have to write the book of my whole life story before people could understand the conclusion of my so far passage on this earth.

Here is what Suzanne wrote …. "Well today is a special day my beautiful book arrived from Maddy, Mystical Journey, Photo Poetry for the Heart and Soul...and my oh my how very fortunate I am to have received this beautiful gift. From Maddy’s personal letter complete with soothing tea, to the very end of this book it was indeed a Mystical Journey...and has touched my heart. From the very first post that Maddy made on one of my photos, you just knew she was special, a kindred spirit, a gifted photographer, and a living sage...A Being who is here carrying the lamp for us to see by, a scribe writing the words we need to hear. A truly gifted and magical photographer. So that we may see. I have been so fortunate to have Maddy as a spirit in kind through the flickr network. Now I can actually touch and sense that spirit in this beautiful book. It is MAGNIFICENT. Thank you MaddyLane for sharing your spirit with me. A true gift to us...you are one of a Kind. I will treasure this book as I treasure our friendship... Humbly your friend Suzanne

I thank you with great Honor Suzanne, you have touched my Soul and inspired me tremendously in return, now I know how I will market this book. For its not easy to market ones own creations. It’s easier to get you all to go to my website because where I share and give you creative ideas for free. This book is different then what I normally do, its not a décor project, its me sharing from my Soul on a personal level which is not seen in a website. I hope my readers will buy this book, for it shows another side of me, of creation and how I get my inspirations in order to inspire others. It really is a feel good all over book.

I wrote Mystical Journey before I read the book “The Shack” by William Paul Young.
It is truly one of the best and most powerful books that I have ever read. It really explains it all…everyone should read this book!!! For we all have our caves and shacks in our lives in one way or another. When I read this book I realized that I was not crazy after all, it explain many things to me that I have come to realize within the last few years. Mystical journey is my trip at the Shack. When I kayak and admire the sunrise and sunsets I am truly with the presence of God the Source. When I’m making creations I truly feel Sarayu (the holy spirit) spirits, she is everything magical and whimsical, that is perhaps why I enjoy making things so much. Weather I’m in my work shop or going for long walks, I feel the presence of Jesus is there with me, we have long talks. Now that I have allowed myself to reconnect to the source and this magnificent trio, I enjoy their presences when I being present to their presence. Suzanne since I’m particularly found of you, I will post of picture of the Shack on my lake for you tomorrow.

Save the planet by healing your Soul first….and united we can heal the planet.
Where we all inspire each other in one way or another ;)
Enjoy this day!

It's now spring, but it doesn't feel like it, things are not green yet, there’s still a bit of snow and it looks more likes fall, mist and all....this is a transitional time, what I call between seasons....for both nature and the state of our Souls. Coming out of winter Soul sleep, awaiting for spring.

Have a wonderful day... not matter what season it is, rain or shine... enjoy!

Spring has Sprung at Miycreations.....

2009-03-29T13:12:00.001-04:00

Spring 2009 at MIY

Spring is an exciting time of the year...the snow is finally melting, the birds are singing, people are out and smiling more...it truly is a renewal time of the year. Winter has been long enough; It’s now time to rejoice.

Its also time for Spring Cleaning , to renew your home, wardrobe and spirits. Clean those cobweb corners, let in fresh air, get organized, add colour and style… all to set a spirited welcoming tone to welcome the new season. Spring decorating does not have to be difficult or expensive, it can be achieved simply and with a smile.
Get Cracking...Visit miycreations for Spring inspirations and creations ;)
www.miycreations.com

Quick tips for Spring cleaning
1- Put on upbeat music that makes you happy, move and groove....
2- Get the kids to help, even if you have to do the job over again after, its teaching them to help and basic cleaning skills, make it fun or into a game...after all its their home too
3-Open the windows to let in some fresh air, out with the old energy in with the new
4-Set simple goals, do one room at a time, but do it all, the from walls to floor.Once a room is spring fresh clean from top to bottom, it will motivate you to do every room in the same manner. It's a most invigorating feeling!
5- Don't forget to clean those junk drawers, where everything seams to accumulate, for remember...it is called a junk drawer, because all the daily junk ends up there
6-Use green products as much as you can, recycle what you can, throw out broken things that don't work, donate good items that you simply don't need, or have not used in years... make a fresh start, pretend your moving, its a great way to get ride of a lot of stuff, that is just that stuff...minimalize, it's good for the soul!
7-Revamp and reuse what you can, save your money, it’s amazing what a fresh coat of paint can do!
8- Don’t forget to take water breaks to re-energize yourself, preferably outside to breathe in some fresh spring air.
9-Throw out any dead plants, replace them with fresh ones...its good feng shui
10- Most important...do it with a smile, the work will get done faster and you will be filling your home with new fresh positive energy to start the new season!

There's always a plus side to spring cleaning...it always amazes me the things one finds during spring cleaning, especially the recovery of lost items, I especially like to find money in the couch and in pockets of spring cloths... it pays to spring clean after all!!!!

Happy Spring Cleaning :)

Treeology Analogy...

2009-03-26T12:29:00.002-04:00

I would like to introduce you to my trees (well typically they belong to nature). There are three of them, like a circle of friends, father, son and holly spirit, or the Father, Mother and Child..its all depends on the perspective you look at them. No matter what season or weather, they are always there, like constants. Simply by watching them everyday, I have learned much from them. I do my morning salutation, and meditate, and I have my coffee break with them. They are what I see from my office window. In the summer I even dance around them, relax, read books, and entertain by them. They teach me so much. Whenever i'm having a busy day, I take the time to breathe for a few minutes while I look at them and instantly I feel more focused, more grounded as I stand tall like them. We are a lot like trees in many ways; we metamorphose and change with every season such as trees, we come back to life in the spring, we blossom, we learn to sway with the winds, to stand tall, and ground ourselves, to adapt in the winter...yes we can learn much from the soul medicine of trees….and all without a word, simply by observing and feeling there energy. When I’m kayaking, they are what I spot from a distance to find my way back home.
Did I mention I love trees…especially these three :)

Enjoy your day...Hugs a tree today...and feel it's awesome energy !!!!

Miy Photo of the Day.... Harmony

2009-03-16T16:03:00.002-04:00

Miy Photo of the Day.... Harmony

Cardiff Castel, Wales (It was a unique experience to dine at Cardiff Castel while in Wales, entertained by Welsh angelic voices and music,a real enchanting treat)

Harmony is when consonance and dissonance are in balance.
Harmony is also a state of being when one feels a peaceful inner balance, almost like the sound of harps and angels singing from within ;)

Have a wonderful week full of Harmony ;)

Smiles for you....

2009-02-21T15:53:00.002-05:00

Everyone is born with their own little personalities. My oldest son was born happy and smiling and he still is. My second son was more serious.... so we play this game I call "smile therapy". We sit and stare at each other while smiling, then we usually end up in laughing fits. Plus we have smile contests, which ever one stops smiling first does the dishes ;) Now, I even catch him smiling when he doesn't know i'm looking. Smiling is good for the soul. And sometimes when he is arguing with me, as most kids do. I tell him looks like we need to do a smile therapy, he then starts to smile and laugh right away, saying no way, but it already worked and it totally changes the mood. I know he’s finally getting it because the other day he was telling me all about inner beauty and how the ugliest person in the world could be the most beautiful when smiling. This made me smile. He went on to explain that there this pretty girl in his class but he finds her not so pretty because she doesn't smile. I said to him “so why don't you smile at her” she just might smile back. He came back the next day and told me it worked as he gave me a big smile ;)

Have a wonderful weekend, and don't forget to smile at someone, its contagious!
Sharing a smile is like spreading joy!

Unconditional Love....

2009-02-06T17:31:00.001-05:00

what love is suppose to be like? ….This is a text quote taken from a movie I watched recently with my son.. “Stardust”…(it’s the story of a fallen star and how she finds true love)

"You know when I said I knew little about love? That wasn't true. I know a lot about love. I've seen it, centuries and centuries of it, and it was the only thing that made watching your world bearable. All those wars. Pain, lies, hate... It made me want to turn away and never look down again. But when I see the way that mankind loves... You could search to the furthest reaches of the universe and never find anything more beautiful. So yes, I know that love is unconditional. But I also know that it can be unpredictable, unexpected, uncontrollable, unbearable and strangely easy to mistake for loathing, and... What I'm trying to say, Tristan is... I think I love you. Is this love, Tristan? I never imagined I'd know it for myself. My heart... It feels like my chest can barely contain it. Like it's trying to escape because it doesn't belong to me any more. It belongs to you. And if you wanted it, I'd wish for nothing in exchange - no fits. No goods. No demonstrations of devotion. Nothing but knowing you loved me too. Just your heart, in exchange for mine."
---------------------------------------------------------
I thought that was a pretty powerful text…. With that I came to also conclude the following insights;
My interpretation of “Unconditional Love”…. When you realize the conditions that you are putting onto others or others putting on you…can you then begin to make them unconditional, the conditions occur as tests to obtain this next level of expansion. “Un” … means “one” in French, for love to truly be unconditional it takes much practice, an open heart, and much vision to see where we are putting on conditions on our loved ones, friends, family, nations etc… and to go beyond the hurts and pains in order to obtain inner peace, for when one is at peace there are no conditions but the pureness of the present moment…. This is what we are all here to learn. If it was easy to do, the whole world would be “one” and at peace….

So to reach unconditional love you have to do the opposite first, that is to see the conditions, to go beyond them. This I have learned this by allowing myself to feel the pain of such limits head-on as oppose to suppressing it…. In truly feeling this pain can one discovered its insights….by listening to its messages. To allow oneself to truly feel is a gift that takes much courage. To err is human, to learn from our ways is wisdom, and to forgive is purely divine! Love is the thread that keeps us together…what are you weaving!

Then I received this quote from my sister (by an unmanned author)
"God doesn't give you the people you want, He gives you the people you NEED. To help you, to guide you, to hurt you, to leave you, to love you and to make you into the person you were meant to be."

Therefore my conclusion to all the above is simply “LOVE YOU”!!!!!
Love yourself....That is the bases of unconditional love

I realize that this might all be a bit much to grasp, but if this insight can give even just one of you and another insight, then it was well worth the share...

To view my Snow and Holiday in Hudson picture clip.... visit www.miycreations.com/

Title: John Lennon - Happy Christmas (War Is Over) lyrics

So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
Ans so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let's stop all the fight
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
And what have we done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
Ans so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
War is over over
If you want it
War is over
Now...

This song and these words are so powerful...gets my heart strings every time....Peace and a very Merry Christmas to all, Feliz Navidad, Joyeux Noël, Cheers and Hugs

The trees, grass and flowers all grow in silence… Nature speaks to us without words…we should listen more. We need to give ourselves the gift of silence now and then to regroup with our souls in order to be able to go and give more....

Fall Under Cover....

2008-11-12T11:25:00.002-05:00

A little change form regular fall captures. I took his photo at a winery in Ontario earlier this fall. It's part of a new photo gallery that I just posted on my site, Umbrellas & Parasols.

I like umbrellas, there’s something fascinating about them, perhaps its because they protect us from things, such as the rain or the sun, perhaps its their shape, but for some reason I’m always attracted to photograph them. Here’s a series of various umbrellas shots in different locations, Montreal,St-Martins, St –Jovith Quebec, and Ontario.
Hope you will visit my new photo gallery and enjoy this series :)

Remembrance...

2008-11-10T09:18:00.006-05:00

Taking a moment to remember our fallen soldiers who have gone to dust,
is how we honor them for what they have sacrificed for us….
There is no need for war,
and for the loss of these brave souls,
but we need to remember this, in order to lose no more.

Happy Thanksgiving...."Enjoy"

2008-10-11T09:41:00.001-04:00

Happy Thanksgiving...
With a very busy weekend ahead, I just wanted to take a moment to say a heart felt thank you to all of you for your continuous visits and support....and to wish my Canadian friends a very “Happy Thanksgiving” full of wonderful blessings. Enjoy the weekend!

With all that is going on in the world with the economy these days; it is even more important then ever to count our bountiful blessings rather the dwell on the things that we do not have. What the world needs is not for people to get stuck in the spiral negative energy of fear. Do the opposite, the more we are grateful for what we do have to more we are sending out good energy into the world around us. “I Give Thanks”; as you say these words this weekend surrounded by family, friends and loved ones, feel the energy of gratefulness in the here and now and you will feel the gifts of true blessings...everyday! Count your blessings, not your money, for money comes and goes, for blessings are our true treasures. Hope is something that is to come in the future, Faith is knowing that your prayers have been heard right now! Thanksgiving is for giving thanks for our blessings....if we all did this everyday, the world would heal with such wonderful vibrating energy!
Happy Thanksgiving...enjoy!
