Hope kindle and rebound you. May your Hurts turn to Healing; Your Heart embrace Feeling. May Wounds become Wisdom; Every Kindness a Prism. May Laughter infect you; Your Passion resurrect you. May Goodness inspire your Deepest Desires. Through all that you Reach For, May your arms Never Tire.” ~D. Simone  "December Berries" (Photo Courtesy of Wylddane Productions, LLC) Don't Just
"Don't just learn, experience. Don't just read, absorb. Don't just change, transform. Don't just relate, advocate. Don't just promise, prove. Don't just criticize, encourage. Don't just think, ponder. Don't just take, give. Don't just see, feel. Don’t just dream, do. Don't just hear, listen. Don't just talk, act. Don't just tell, show. Don't just exist, live.” ~ Roy T. Bennett  "The Rose of Faith" (Photo Courtesy of Wylddane Productions, LLC) "Faith is the expectation of the unexpected. Faith is an open and courageous heart. The arms of faith are outstretched, not in supplication but in surrender to life’s sovereign will, in submission to the ruling order of the universe, in receptivity to good.
Faith is the power to see in the disappointment of today the fulfillment of tomorrow, in the end of old hopes the beginning of new life. Faith is the inward power to see beyond the outward signs, the power to know that all is right when everything looks wrong. When our fondest dreams seem to go amiss and our dearest prayers seem to remain unanswered, faith is a vision of life that soars beyond the limitations of the self - these narrow senses, this imperfect reason, this drift of circumstance - and sees that our life is a part of something more than we have ever understood. In spite of all that may seem and all that may happen there is an ultimate fulfillment, that all is truly well, that all must be well. Life has an eternal meaning, we are one with the infinite, and whatever may befall us, in the all-infolding, all-unfolding ever-ness of God, life will work out for good. When from your heart the troubled cry goes up, know that there is no cry but that somehow there is an answer. There is a love. There is a power. There is wisdom, and there is way to go. Let your heart hold fast; the way will be made plain." ~James Dillet Freeman  "Last Leaves of Autumn" (Photo Courtesy of Wylddane Productions, LLC)  "November on the St. Croix River" (Photo Courtesy of Wylddane Productions, LLC)  "Somewhere's Road" (Photo Courtesy of Wylddane Productions, LLC) "When we contemplate the whole globe as one great dewdrop,
striped and dotted with continents and islands, flying through space with other stars all singing and shining together as one, the whole universe appears as an infinite storm of beauty." ~John Muir  "Lake Superior and Winter" (Photo Courtesy of Wylddane Productions, LLC)  "Holiday San Francisco" (Photo Courtesy of Wylddane Productions, LLC) "I live to experience something new each day -
to learn something new, meet a new friend, bring joy into someone's life, feel the wind newly on my skin, touch a new fear, a new anger, and with focused intent and good fortune, find an ample measure of my own joy." ~Jonathan Lockwood Huie "Re-examine all that you have been told...dismiss that which insults your soul." ~ Walt Whitman11/24/2018  "Rick's November Garden" (Photo Courtesy of Wylddane Productions, LLC) |
