What Is Lonnie's Room?

There is a room in our home to which I navigate more frequently than the others. It makes me feel secure, it is cozy, and it is quiet. From the peak of the room, there is a large rusty metal angel suspended by a very thin wire. It would apear as if the angel is hovering over me, protecting, and always present. The lighting in the room creates a virtual display of dancing shadows around the angel.

Every evening when I am in "MY ROOM", I think of what Luciano de Crescenzo once said, "We are all like one-winged angels. it is only when we help each other that we can fly."

Blossoms of spring

After a busy day, I enjoy sitting by the patio door glancing out at the courtyard in full bloom of flowering trees of white and pink.  A few tulips spring up in pinks, and a creeping phlox of purple hues surround the pond.  I can once again see the Koi in the pond, and robins skip around looking for food.   It is usually this time of year when I am amazed at the beauty of the earth and think there is not a more beautiful place.  Of course, I think that in the fall with all the beautiful harvest colors, and after the first snow fall of the winter
season.  The quality of our lives begin with our appreciation of God's creation.  With that appreciation we become the positive thinker who sees the invisible, feels the intangible and achieves the impossible.  We are therefore blessed.

My prayers go out to those who have suffered tragedy in the recent tornado outbreaks, in floods and fires, and have lost so much of their beauty and inner peace.
