Grateful for...


grace...


grace is...
undeserved favour.

a wise man said to me recently
"time does not heal,
healing takes time"...

all around us here in australia...
and i am sure, in other countries too,
our neighbours and friends are hurting
and need healing for many different reasons.

i love that
we can each be a giver of grace
to the people around us...

to give them time to heal
and to extend comfort and care
to all people
whether they are deserving of it or not.

    Agree.
    As for adirondacks I waited a long to get them and got them for my birthday last December. They are so comfortable I just adore them. When sitting in them I do lots of dreaming / arm chair travel - LOL. Charmaine

    Gorgeous, gracious words Carol, spot on. Amazing how you you really need to stop, breath, take it in & take time, you can't rush the heeling process for the body or mind, certainly not a flattened flooded home. Love Posie

    I love the quote about healing and time... very wise indeed. So glad you have collected so many cushions so far. My mother finished up her two. I just need to get mine done and they will be on their way.
