Thank you, Jane Austen.
Since Billie's Graphic is so beautiful and fits perfectly with our Red Friday theme,
it seemed to be a great Opening to honor our troops.
Nat's voice is beautiful and so soothing.
Hope you are enjoying today.

REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!
Captain Ronald George Luce, Jr., USA, KIA Afghanistan, 2AUG2009
I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)
God Of Our Fathers
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, among these who answered the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!

Thank you Amy! That was beautiful! I was singing “ Red Sails in the Sunset “ just the other day. No one sings it like Nat King Cole! What a beautiful voice. Hope you have a relaxing Friday and a wonderful weekend!

Sometimes she walks through the village in her
little red dress
all absorbed in restraining herself,
and yet, despite herself, she seems to move
according to the rhythm of her life to come.
She runs a bit, hesitates, stops,
half-turns around...
and, all while dreaming, shakes her head
for or against.
Then she dances a few steps
that she invents and forgets,
no doubt finding out that life
moves on too fast.
It's not so much that she steps out
of the small body enclosing her,
but that all she carries in herself
frolics and ferments.
It's this dress that she'll remember
later in a sweet surrender;
when her whole life is full of risks,
the little red dress will always seem right.
Rainer Maria Rilke
