Green Smiley Monday
It is Monday again. Yesterday was a terrible day. I think it was the fact that I was thinking of all the mothers who lost their kids to war. Today is better, though I am still down.
The green smiley part is that I woke up to a spectacular sunrise. We have a big East facing window so get to see the beauty of the sun rising (at least in the winter. It is way too early in the summer). Today, the colors changed and all were beautiful. It started out a deep fuschia colour, then dark pink, then to a beautiful pink and blue pastel color. I have seen some incredible sunrises but I think this time is the first time I have witnessed the changes, where each change was beautiful in and of itself.
And our weather is getting a bit warmer. We are close to freezing. In a day or 2 we should see our snow melting.
Have a wonderful week.
My Dear Lisa: As usual, I wanted to phone you this morning to tell you about the sunrise. I am thinking that perhaps you sent it. I miss you always and love you forever, Mummy

So good to find pleasure in this earth. It was all put here for our well being. We are to say \"The world was created for me, and I am as the dust of the earth.\" Both thoughts at the same time. Hard to do. Thanks for telling the colors, I can imagine it much better this way. love, Abby
Love your message to Lisa and your description of the sunrise. May you continue to see the good things that Mother Nature provides and that our kids sometimes send to us. Your friend, BW
I could almost see that sunrise in my mind, you described it so beautifully. I soooo understand the feeling, of wanting to call Lisa. I miss my chats with Dean everyday. He was my loving, funny boy and he always will be...

Sounds beautiful...I understand the \"down\" feeling...love and hugs...
You described that sunrise so well I felt like I saw it too! I found that after bereavement, my appreciation for everything took a big leap forward...my capacity for greater sensory awareness of God\'s beauty around me increased significantly! :-) Love, Donna
I can see it with my heart eyes! It is truly a blessing to be gifted with these simple miracles! Love you!
It is gray and rainy here this morning so your description of the beautiful sunrise gave me something wonderful to imagine....thank you so much for giving me the gift of that beauty today. Love, Anne
Hold onto that beautiful sunrise...
Spectacular sunrises and sunsets are the greatest light shows ever. Lisa wanted you to have some pleasure in your day.
I love the thought that Lisa sent the sunrise for you...or at least had you awake to witness it...Hugs,
Belinda
Keep enjoying the sunrise, they are beautiful. I enjoy sunsets also the rays of light shining out of the water. The kids know just how to say HI
Hugs Penny
Your Lisa knows just what YOU needed. Such a gift of color and warmth to give a needed boost.

The day after Toby died I was sitting up all night and saw the most amazing sunrise and I still saw the beauty in it and felt as if it was Toby\'s spirit. These small things take on new meaning. Xxxx
