Grow....





She taught me that grief is a time to be lived through, experienced fully, and that the heavens will not fall if I give voice to to my anger against God in such a time. - Elizabeth Watson

My anger is legitimate, and will burn away sooner if I acknowledge and express it.

it may be that some little root of the scared tree still lives
Nourish it then
that it may leaf and bloom and fill with singing birds -Black Elk

These words were taken from the book, "Healing After Loss" by Martha Whitmore Hickman

A truly wonderful book..I encourage anyone who is going through a hard time to buy it or rent it from the library.

I took the photo of the Wisteria vine about a month ago..I hope you like it.

Love Nita

I love beauty, whether it is in nature, literature or art. And I love music... My day feels incomplete if I haven't had a chance to listen to some good music.. I also love beautiful souls, and kind hearts.
