Good mornng, Rus. Thank you for another great lesson from ODB.
Whenever you offend a friend,
Apologize and make things right;
For if you will admit your wrong,
You may avoid a needless fight. Sper
I love this. It is a great lesson for all of us.
Have a wonderful day.

~Happy Thursday Everyone~
I am moving everything off the kitchen counters and really cleaning the tops
and backsplashes.
My buffet has a big stack of paperwork to go through... I must stay off the
internet and get things done..I hope!.. LOL
I'm thankful my back isn't hurting today.
Wishing you a great day

My Mothers Garden
My mother kept a garden,
a garden of the heart,
she planted all the good things
that gave my life its start.
She turned me to the sunshine
and encouraged me to dream,
fostering and nurturing
the seeds of self-esteem ...
And when the winds and rain came,
she protected me enough,
but not too much because she knew
Id need to stand up strong and tough.
Her constant good example
always taught me right from wrong ...
markers for my pathway
that will last a lifetime long.
I am my Mothers garden.
I am her legacy...
and I hope today she feels the love
reflected back from me.

HAPPY THURSDAY TO AMYS PLACE!
Red Hanrahans Song About Ireland
The old brown thorn-trees break in two high over Cummen Strand, Under a bitter black wind that blows from the left hand; Our courage breaks like an old tree in a black wind and dies, But we have hidden in our hearts the flame out of the eyes Of Cathleen, the daughter of Houlihan.
The wind has bundled up the clouds high over Knocknarea, And thrown the thunder on the stones for all that Maeve can say. Angers that are like noisy clouds have set our hearts abeat; But we have all bent low and low and kissed the quiet feet Of Cathleen, the daughter of Houlihan.
The yellow pool has overflowed high up on Clooth-na-Bare, For the wet winds are blowing out of the clinging air; Like heavy flooded waters our bodies and our blood; But purer than a tall candle before the Holy Rood Is Cathleen, the daughter of Houlihan.
William Butler Yeats |

Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Good evening, Kitty. Thank you.
When I opened the folder with Today’s Opener, I was delighted. I think this was a perfect time to post it.
