A new day a, a new challenge. I am always happy for a new challenge. 

In my grandmother's garden there was always a pinwheel. Funny I had not thought of that for years. She had such a green thumb. I am happy to have this memory. Anyway I guess that is why the flowers appeared. I used the peace rose.  That was my mother's favorite rose and I too am inclined to choose it above all others.  In the pinwheel there are words that I think promote peace. Hopefully you will be able to read them.....just in case..... they are charity, humility, patience, temperance, and brotherly kindness.  Again I echo last week's sentiment of "Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me"  It is from a song my father used to sing and I learned to sing it at a very young age. Vince Gill sings it beautifully at this link

The days seem to rush by. We are entering my favorite time of year. I am trying to slow down and enjoy it....  however, that is hard because life is a rush.

Love is an amazing word. It encompasses so many things. I have really been wondering how I could represent my concept of love and I totally failed with this first try. I am going to have to really think about what I really want. However, my first try is a beginning.
