One "person' s" junk is another "person's" treasure.... No art or writing today. We spent the day getting ready for a Garage Sale. I certainly hope there are many "treasure" hunters afoot on Saturday morning. There will be many treasures available to those who are seeking, believe me!
Friday will be the year anniversary of my mother's death... I can't believe a year has gone by! I know it is hard to believe, but no matter what life was like as I was growing up, she was my mother and I loved her. It amazes me how lost a person can feel when her parents have left this earth... oh, I have a wonderful family now, but there is always the realization that part of your life is gone. I guess it doesn't help that I am unsure of my sister's loyalty to my parents' wishes; and each day that goes by without any information about the matter, I become more and more convinced that she has no intention of fulfilling their wishes... I wonder how she sleeps at night??? My best advice to everyone is to live each day with no regrets... Always do the best you can... If it needs to be said, say it... If it needs to be done, do it... there are no guarantees that there will be a tomorrow to complete those tasks that you keep avoiding... and then there is the matter of trust...well now, I guess that I am not the person to speak to about that as I continue in life to trust and believe in people only to be disappointed or taken advantage of in the end. I guess it is best to leave some matters to karma... however, I am not quite sure what that means in relation to my own karma?????? That, my friend, is something to ponder...
Well, I obviously had more to say today. After the "garage sale" I will try to actually get some of my art and other work posted... that is much more interesting, in the long run.
Until tomorrow, remember to dream big and believe in yourself. Take time to create... take time to hug those around you... and, most of all, tell the people you love that you love them; don't assume that they already know.
Blessings to you always,

About Me
- bridgeanna
- Although I grew up in Montana, I currently live in the wonderful Pacific Northwest and love it! I was greatly influenced by my great grandparents, and I treasure my Irish heritage. I taught middle school for 11 years. Although I was out of the classroom for a year, I returned to teach high school Language Arts online. I love middle and high school kids and teaching, but I hate the politics involved. I believe that every day is a gift to be savored and cherished... I believe there is still much to learn... I believe in the power of love to heal... I believe in always doing our best to serve others... I believe there is magic all around us - "Some things have to be believed to be seen."... I believe "all things are possible" to those who believe they are... I believe we are called to love one another and be understanding for we can never be sure of another's struggles until we have walked a mile in his/her shoes... I believe peace is possible; apathy is not an option... and most of all, I believe in LOVE!
