Dedicated with all my Love
to little Abigail Jones.

brings tears to my eyes,
Hope

peace to those facing terminal illness
and encouragement to those
facing life’s uncertainties,

“Life
is a Beautiful dance
of joy and grief.”
– Erika and Stephen Jones
(Abby’s precious Mother and Father)

Their story of Love and Courage and Faith
Has inspired me
To share the following
With you.

Unimaginable Beauty abides within.

With each dawn
Of each new day,
God
Looks into the face

Of a newborn child,
Filled with Hope,
Blessed by Grace.

Each dawn
Births
An infinity of possibilities,
An endless list
Of songs to sing,
A Universe of ideas
To explore
And a measureless landscape
Of Heartfelt emotions
To enjoy
Or endure.

Countless Blessings
God brings.
They are truly
Unbounded, enduring
Everlasting and undying.
But,
Looking with only
Our lonely eyes,
We see so very, very
Little.

The signposts
Of our memories,
In dreams
Ne’er placed in bed,

Show us the ways
We have been.

halo

Our lonely eyes see so very, very little.

And as all thought
Of sorrow
Seeps from your veins,
And sadness
Brings you
To your knees,
You need but remember

The Life God gave,
As He
Remembers
The Dream You are,
Child of
Everlasting Love.

My Precious Friends,
Only the Fire of Faith
Lights the path

To lead you out
Of the darkness
Of doubt.

As the storms of Life
Scatter the dreams
Of the night,
Know that
Unimaginable Beauty
Abides within
The Sacred
Being you are.

Each dawn births an Infinity of possibilities.

The unfolding journey of Life
May seem at times
A hopelessly tragedy.
But moments of joy
Can far outnumber
Moments of sorrow.
By the Loving Grace of God
That you beseech and implore,
The choice becomes
Yours.

“Happiness held
is the seed;

happiness shared
is the flower.”
– John Harrigan

You are, my Friend,
A Living Library.
You hold the history

Of the Universe
Within your Sacred body.
And in your mind,
Is the chapter
You write today.
But your Heart
Possesses a wealth untold

Of Beautiful emotions
Which connect you

To Tomorrow
In a Spiritual way.

The storms of Life scatter the dreams.

 Realities merge,
When what we’ve done,

By the Grace of God,
We undo
In forgiving,
And being forgiven,

Yes,
God looks into the face
Of a newborn child.
Every child of God
Is like the Golden Dawn
Of each new day.
He Graciously gives
What is given,
And is woven
Into the Fabric
Of our new awakening,

                  Realities merge.

You,
My Friend,

Are that child.
And God
Looks into your face
With each newborn day,
As the Promise
Of your Dawn
Begs of such Beauty
That may be found
Only
In the Magnificent
Sunrise of your precious
Heart.

Yours is the Sunlight,
  And the Morning.

With each dawning
Of each new day,
You
Are born again
Into a world
That can be filled
With all the Love
You are,
And all the Love
You will ever be.

flower

Happiness shared is the flower.

Stretch out your arms.
Embrace everyone
You see.

Open wide your Heart.
Welcome
A new world
Filled with all the Love
Of a Father
For His newborn
Child.

God is,
Above all things,
A Loving Parent.
And you,
His deeply Loved
Child.

All the Miracles
Of the Cosmos

Are poised
In Revelation
With each new day.

Your Life
Can be
Ever giving,
When your Love
Has found its meaning
.

I Pray
That you are guided
by

Life ever Loving,
And Love
Ever giving.

Goodnight.

Or is it really,
Good Morning!

The Fire of Faith lights the path.

“The essence of God
Is so transcendent
it cannot be described,
except with reference
to what it is not.”
– The Kabbalah

                                                  Ginger
                           is a powerful anti-cancer medicine
New research reveals that ginger is such a powerful anti-cancer medicine that it kills 10,000 as many cancer cells as chemotherapy. And unlike with chemo, ginger doesn’t kill you in the process.

Besides slowing down cancer, ginger was proven to be effective for over 100 other ailments, including diabetes, osteoarthritis and chemotherapy-induced nausea. Another good reason why you should definitely try it is the fact that it comes with virtually no side effects. Unlike chemo, ginger acts like as a remedy. Chinese medicine started using it to treat patients over 2,000 year ago.   read more here
