Well ahem cough blush shuffle perhaps that's a bit far-fetched but actually I love them and am soooooo pleased to see your post as I had not realised WHY I smile at them so much.

This is a beautifully written post. I lo...Carrie, <br /><br />This is a beautifully written post. I love your words, "I have found a small fragile flame of hope and warmth. It's like a little candle flame way in the distance sitting low on the ground in the midst of an eerie, misty country line, but it is Hope."<br /><br />While I knew what was coming, it still is such a wonderful message that there are "babies in the greenhouse.<br /><br />The Camus quote is a perfect bookend. I will send this wish, May you find inside you "an invincible summer" even when the days of dreary and cold.Sarahttp://www.sarahealy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8376693003192814341.post-35790289181457140532012-11-07T16:09:58.697+00:002012-11-07T16:09:58.697+00:00Hmmm.....

That's exactly...WONDERFUL message, Carrie!!!!!!<br />That's exactly how I defeated my former fear and hatred of winter! That made me so much stronger... believe me, Carrie, if you keep seeing that flame, and seeing that winter is not "death" but a long, peaceful sleep during which Nature gathers her best forces for the new Life to come in Spring... you will find new strength inside you and see things under a whole different light!<br /><br />LOVE Camus' quote!!!<br /><br />Lots of love!<br />xxxxAnnukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14116405771337124059noreply@blogger.com
