 And never fear,

 Life was made

 For love and cheer."

Hello, my friends!

I hope that this email finds you happy and healthy.

I loved this beautiful poem by Neil Gaiman so much that I made some pictures to go with it.

He wrote it to raise awareness about refugees struggling to get through the winter.


If you like you can read more about the UNHCR here.

 

Wishing you all good things,

We are three or four times blessed.

I delightfully anticipate the next good thing that is on its way to me.

"...nothing delights the mind so much as fond and loyal friendship.

What a blessing it is to have hearts that are ready and willing

to receive all your secrets in safety,

with whom you are less afraid to share knowledge of something

than keep it to yourself,

whose conversation soothes your distress,

whose advice helps you make up your mind,

whose cheerfulness dissolves your sorrow,

whose very appearance cheers you up!” ~ Seneca

Toymaker's Workshop

"If you are a writer or an artist, it is work that fulfills and makes you come into wholeness, and that goes on through a lifetime.

Whatever the wounds that have to heal, the moment of creation assures that all is well, that one is still in tune with the universe, that the inner chaos can be probed and distilled into order and beauty."
~ May Sarton
