This makes me so happy. You and your head have NEEDED this space! xo
I agree with Brenda!
I see words as the potter’s clay or the colors of a palette are for the artist. But so much more: a surgeon’s scalpel , a healing balm applied to a wound or a weapon for inflicting pain. One who knows the creator of words and uses them to extend the divine blessing evem touches the soul, heart and spirit. Thanks Angela for being a visionary artist, a nurturing physician and a divine messenger.
Thank you for your continued kindness Gene. Merry Christmas.
Angela, is “tough toenails” a reference to Ted Baxter from the Mary Tyler Moore show? If so, that’s amazing. If not, it still made my day. 🙂
Haha! Not sure. My mom always used to say it so I guess I get it from her. Maybe she got it from Mary Tyler Moore? It’s a mystery.
Thanks for reading friend. Hope you’re having a great summer.
