The sun is always shining somewhere on the globe, too, so I just need to direct my heart to the warmth of it, yes?
There is never a night of darkness with love around.
Hi Linda. Thanks for the ray of light!
Dear Lori,
“There is never a night of darkness with love around.” Beautifully put. Thank you!
Dear Davina,
Thank you for bringing your rays of light here, as always!
Hi Linda – This reminds me of times when I’ve gone on a trip. I leave and it’s a cloudy, maybe rainy day. The airplane climbs out of the clouds and the sun in shining. Sweet!
Hi Barbara,
How apropos — I’m leaving on a trip in the AM — umm, make that this morning. I love when that clouds/sun thing happens on a plane ride, too! It also amazes me when you wake up in one city and go to sleep in another. Yet when you’re flying, the plane appears to be going so slowly at times.
Sorry I won’t be able to visit your blog for awhile, but know I’m thinking about you, your BWAB community & the blogosphere.
I’ll have some “goodies” auto-posting here while I’m gone, so stay tuned.
