So fellow travelers, if one could post background music for an entry, this one would have the song from Disney’s Little Mermaid that goes “Don’t’ worry ’bout a thing, cause every little things gonna be alright…” This is my favorite picture from our daughter’s wedding. Puzzled? Mmmm I understand. No bride and groom, no artsy …
riding earth
I have a kindred spirit in the Bedlam Creative group. We found each other sharing space for last years open house at the farm. Often her poetry speaks right from my own heart, so today in honor of Earth Day here is a post from the amazing Kate Rantilla
Renewal
In this time of many celebrations of renewal and hope, whatever source of faith is yours these beautiful words from a fellow Bedlam Creative Group member, my friend Jackie Campbell are a blessing for all. Have an inspired and peace filled weekend everyone.
Crossroads of the heart
So fellow travelers, life’s passage has brought me to a bittersweet moment, as our daughter and son-in-law set out for their new life across the country.

When it pleases the whimsy of the gods, the words stick in my mind long enough to record. Today …
Sanctuary rules
So fellow travelers, sometimes the best response is to meet a challenge head on, as it is presented. My response came as a poem. ( Progress for me, not long ago it would have been a angry rant.) Those Not Welcomed There were little girls in rocking chairs nursing bruises, crying silent tears …
Harlequin Duck
And now for something completely different. First a new greeting. While I hope my readers are indeed blessed and it is always my intention to be a blessing, I have come to feel we travel this path together and so a new greeting for the trails ahead. So fellow travelers, in times of better weather I …
What a Difference a Year Makes- conclusion
So blessed readers the story of my journey as a rescue volunteer continues. As previously noted, rescue work is a volatile and fractured topic to write about. Proceed with caution. No one looks back at the past with unclouded vision. While time often brings insight which helps us understand what has occurred, it also tempers …
