My heart goes out to those people whom have been effected by the recent hurricane Harvey. I have little words to convey my heart felt feelings. Keep the faith, and know we're here for you, whenever. Yesterday, I had a moment of pondering about how fragile things are, and that things, are just things, and people are, well people, and that you can replace things. I thought about my shop, and how if this happened, starting over would be difficult. Please join me in praying for our fellow friends in Texas and Louisiana. You can't imagine, until you've walked in their shoes, what they're going through.
Sometimes when tragedy hits so close to home, I feel guilty. I'm sure other's feel the same. Tiny things like having a bed to sleep in, and your mail delivered, seem to be an everyday occurrence, but when a disaster such as Harvey hits, tiny, overlooked day by day goings on take on a much different appearance. I'm thankful God made us resilient, strong, and determined.
My pink orchid held her blooms for months! My entire life I've been challenged with getting an orchid to bloom. This past holiday season, I placed her in the cold back room, neglected her completely, and one day during her abandonment, she began shooting, shouting, with new blooms. I believe she was shouting, and yes, I also believe the determined orchid to be a girl. She is pink! At any rate, you can imagine my joyful surprised face when I noticed the new blooms. Little things mean a lot.
Keep the faith...
Jill
