Heart Day ...

Today I am thinking about favorite things - Things that make me happy, take notice and smile - A beautiful photograph, an old fashioned painting, patchwork of childhood memories (like above), an old song on the radio etc ... What captures your attention, has you take notice and smile?

    What a cute patchwork heart! And in great colors! :)
    There are many things that make me happy and smile, but the one I love the most is actually the feeling when I suddenly come across and old building, and that moment when I see an old doorway, or a balcony, or even an overgrown garden with rose bushes and trees, that's the moment I would like to capture and save forever. But, I can't. It comes and goes and I can do nothing about it. And what is that feeling? - well, I can't explain it completely, but it's like a sudden inspiration, call to past times, old books, a life lived long time ago (in another era), something like that. The feeling I can't catch completely, but a very nice one. That makes me happy.

    Sonja - Even though we cannot to a word to this feeling, I get the same feeling - I love "Old World" anything - A house, a doorway, a fence, an old mailbox etc ... Who lived there? How many children? Were they happy? What did they do for a living? Love history, in everyday life ... We are "True Soul Sisters" ...

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated
