This journal is for my beloved children and grandchildren...
...and for Dear Hubby if he outlives me

I’ve learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I’ve learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you’ll miss them when they’re gone from your life. I’ve learned that ‘making a living’ is not the same thing as ‘making a life.’ I’ve learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I’ve learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I’ve learned I still have a lot to learn. I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

If I could be anyone
but who I
am
I would be the
spirit
of the night.
I would paint
tapestries
of endless sweet
dreams,
sprinkling them
in fairy drops
across your
brow.
You could taste them
if you tried.
You could wrap them
around you
like a warm coat.
You could see them
if you opened your
eyes.
But instead you
slumber on.
You paint your own
landscapes,
canvases of starlight
in an emerald
sky.
