Wishcast Wednesday


It is once again Wishcast Wednesday and Jamie (of Jamie Ridler Studios) asks a very probing question:


What do you wish to acknowledge yourself for?


As I thought about this question, I realized that just the act of moving forward, of trying, of perservering is worth acknowledging.


I have come out of a dark place and feel that , although grief will always be there, it is s no longer the smothering cloak it was last year.


I am pusrsuing new dreams, even as I get closer to 60! You are never too old to dream and pursue those dreams.


I continue to love, even through pain. Love is the only answer.
I love Jamie's image. Yes, we need to celebrate ourselves.
Yah ME !
Yah Wishcaster Friends!

Hi Beverly,

Every age is young! It's only our thoughts that age us. I wish for you to continue dancing into a light place, the place where your dreams live.
