‘Living In The Moment’
I am so glad that I followed a piece of advice that I was given this past week. My brother – from Australia – was staying – but his time here was drawing to a close. It had been a wonderful time – but I was beginning to almost dread having to say goodbye. So…
‘Those Special Connections’
I am so grateful – for those close connections – that I have been so privileged to have during my life time – and indeed – for those that I still enjoy today. They are – “Connections – inexplicable – by the laws of place – and time”. They have happened at various times in…
