Happy Halloween!!!
I miss all of you something awful! I'm breaking in a new healthcare worker and she's a dream! Unfortunately, everytime I start with someone new I tend to overdo it myself. I'm also a little worse due to the weather being colder and the arthritis flares along with everything else! I pray everyday and night for each and everyone of you..for strength when weak, fa...

It is said
Seek and you will find
If you look for something
With an open heart
You will find it
I sought the meaning of life
I was led to Ontario
I sought love
I was led to my husband and daughters
I sought knowledge
I was led to Witches Voice
I sought friendship
It was offered open handedly
I sought Love and Light
I found the Goddess
Waiting with open arms
I have found a Love
I never knew existed

How does someone pick a limited number from so many people? If I had written for you all I don't think none of you would have read it because it would be so long so I just picked 3 of my friends - not because they are more special but because the poems fit - mind you the poems could fit anyone of you.

I pray I won't end up a grouchy old lady,
Recountng each ache and each pain
In intricate detail, to all who will listen,
While hoping some pity to gain.
I pray I"ll stay kind and be helpful to others,
While striving to put their needs first;
And that I will share the sweet story of Jesus
With all who now hunger and thirst.
I pray that as years take their measure upon me
And I grow more feeb...1 Recommendation6 Comments -

I recieved this in a fwd from Flutter. I do not know the author. This poem reminds me of how I felt years ago. Thought some of you could relate to it.
Hope life is treating ALL of my friends kindly.

Look Ahead
Why do you look back
There is nothing there
But darkness and despair
Look ahead to the Light
Do you see the Goddess
That is what you should focus on
She's the one that lifts
All darkness from you.
Look ahead. Look ahead
The darkness can not touch you
While She has her hand
Out stretched to you
Grasp the cord She offers
Hold on it, it is a lifeline
With Her there is no darkness and despair

I have been given a choice
I am so thirsty
There sits a bowl of water
It smells so stale
Do I drink now
Or do I walk on
I have been told
“Just a little further
There is a spring of oh so fresh water
Coming from the bowels of the Earth”
Do I drink from the stale, stagnant
Waters of the churches?
Or do I go farther and drink the fresh
Waters of the Mother Earth?
Just the smell gags me,

Of all the lives we touch
All are precious
Some few are here for a long time
But most are here for only a short time
Some are here to teach
Some are here to be taught
But all are here to learn something
Which are you?
The student or the teacher?
I know that I am a student
And sometimes teacher.
I am here to help you try to understand
The way things are in life.
But in helping you,
You help me also to unde...1 Recommendation4 Comments -

The Rose
It is only a tiny rosebud,
A flower of God's design,
But I cannot unfold the petals
With these clumsy hands of mine.
- The secret of unfolding flowers
Is not known to such as I,
The flower God opens so sweetly,
In my hands would fade and die.
- I cannot unfold a rosebud,
This flower of God's design,
Then how can I have wisdom
To unfold this life of mine?

In honor of my grandfather, a chaplain who serviced the wounded and dying on the battlefields of France. This was his favorite poem.
In Flanders Fields by John McCrae, May 1915
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, fel...1 Recommendation4 Comments -

My greatest gift of love,
Came together as we became more.
Love of 4 children that came in my life.
This is what this mother believes is greatest gift of love.
Dale, Amanda, Crystal and Jess
Are the gift of life that came from us.
Four beautiful people all differnt in life.
They will always be my greatest gift of love.
Dale is my oldest and only son.

The Value of a Smile
It costs nothing, but creats much good. It
enriches those who recieve it without
improverishing those who give it away. It
happens in a flash but the memory of it can
last forever. No one is so rich that he can
get along without it. No one is too poor to
feel rich when receiving it. It creates
happiness in the home , fosters good will in
buisness, and is the countersign of fr...1 Recommendation4 Comments -

Lord, thank you for this sink of dirty dishes;
We have plenty of food to eat.
Yhank you for this pile of dirty, stinky, laundry;
We have plenty of nice clothes to wear.
And I would like to thank you, Lord, for those unmade beds;
They were so warm and comfortable last night.
I know that many have no bed.
