Be Kind—Always, Thursday, January 2, 2025

In a world where (sometimes) one can get caught up in the worry, the fear, and everyday traumas

(for no matter what—problems happen to the just and the unjust)

If we approach the problem with kindness, we may not solve it, but at least we didn’t make it worse.

NEW YEARS EVE— Tuesday, December 31, 2024

Boo Berry, TLC, and I went for a wee walk about saying goodbye to 2024.

I wonder what marvelous things will happen in 2025?

Goodbye, 2024…It’s been a heck of a ride.

Send a Voice—Sunday, December 29, 2024

Sometimes I stand outside and marvel at the gift our world is to us

And then I send my voice out into the world for whomever can listen, or will hear

Sometimes I say:  “GOOD MORNING, WORLD!!! I’m so glad to be part of you today.”

Then other times I sing to the four directions, above and below, and into the Heavens:

Thank you, World!  Thank you for the gift this day has been. Thank you from my soul.”

“We nurture our creativity when we release our inner child.  Let it run and roam free.  It will take you on a brighter journey.”– Serina Hartwell, (author) 

From my world to your heart,

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—-Almost the End of the Year, Friday, December 27, 2024

Mom says it’s almost the end of the year.  Whatever that means.

End!  End of the year?  What does that mean?

I don’t see any end.

Everything pretty much seems the same to me.

Sometimes you are annoying, Boo Berry!

MOM!!!! MOM!! I want to come in and have a nap!

MOM!!!

Laugh—For the Joy of Laughing —- Thursday, December 26, 2024

The cute goats came for a walk around the farm (they live just across the field with Shannon)

They are a hoot! Always thinking of something to do—they follow like dogs and stop still like donkeys and hug Shannon like cats.

Laugh, my friends, laugh for the joy of laughing!!

Happy Day after Christmas,

Your friend on a western Colorado farm,

AND THEN—-Tuesday, December 24, 2024

Three cows from the neighbor across the way showed up!

We corraled them until the owner could come in the morning.

Cows!  Gota Love ’em!

“The joy of brightening other lives, bearing each others’ burdens, easing others’ loads, and supplanting empty hearts and lives with generous gifts becomes for us the magic of the holidays.”– W.C. Jones

Merry Christmas Eve!!

From our hearts to your world,

Terry and Linda

Going Forward—Monday, December 23, 2024

Forward and onward—sometimes a straight path; or there is a bend.

But on we go–singing with the birds and the wind, our hearts without a burden.

Christmas is coming, My Friends!

Not long now!    JOY! to the World!

“Christmas children, is not a date.  It is a state of mind.”– Mary Ellen Chase
