Blue Ridge Mountains - "He founded the Earth"

 


The Lord by wisdom founded the earth;
by understanding He established the heavens;
By His knowledge the depths were broken up;
And clouds drop down the dew.

Proverbs 3:19

Flowers of the Forest

 

To see a World in a Grain of sand
And a Heaven in a Wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hours.

Looking for a Butterfly in the Winter Woods


 "No moment is ever free of the life history that has preceded it" (Martha W. Hickman). The fear of losing the memory of a love one we have lost will never happen, but there is hope for the broken hearted.  We can lose, or be released, from the overhanging cloud of gloom.  I for one am looking for that Butterfly in the winter woods.  I want to be able to see it!  As a loving tribute to my daughter Crystal, I will walk out from under this cloud so I can see the beauty of life around me.  She would want that.

"They seemed to come suddenly upon happiness as if they had surprised a butterfly in the winter woods."

~Edith Wharton

If I Had a Flower

"If I had a flower for every time I thought of you...I could walk through my garden forever."

 ~Alfred Lord Tennyson

"To Live In Hearts We Leave Behind is not to die"


"Although no words can really help to ease the loss you bear, just know that you are very close in every thought and prayer.  To Live in Hearts we leave behind is not to die"
