The way life unfolds....

In the past 1-2 yrs. (mostly just this past year) I have noticed people entering my life. Some are old friends I've reconnected with and some are new. Some I've only "talked" to on-line and have never met!! It's hard to explain but I've just been very aware of this "phenomenon" taking place. Now I see how they have been sent to me for a purpose. As my mom slowly leaves my life and leaves behind a huge void in my life and in my heart, I see people stepping in to help fill the hole. And I am so very thankful. I know it will be ok. I know I will survive. Life will be good again.

Oh Robin, I am thinking of you and your Mom today too. When I lost my Mom, I began frequenting The Center and the friends and the art there helped to fill my heart. That's life, isn't it? We sure do have a wonderful support group of friends and for that we are grateful. xox

Thank you both so much. You have really touched my heart. Sometimes I think I will never feel like making art again and other times that's all I want to do!! The Paper and Ink Arts catalogue came the other day and it's pretty exciting!!! I'm hoping to get to spend more time at the Center soon. I love it there and my mom did too. She always said that she hoped it would be around forever.

Hi Robin! I found you "again" by way of someone else's blog and will have to put you on mine now that I've finally figured that out!! I can relate to your feelings too after loosing my Dad so suddenly five years ago. And it is so wonderful to have friends to help you through hard times. I'm glad you're enjoying the blog too. When I get my photo up (after I figure that out!) I'll sign on as a follower. This computor stuff is tough but I'll keep plodding along...

You are always in my thoughts. If you ever need a shoulder or an ear, just let me know.
