I'm
not sure how you ended up here,
but am sure glad that you are here.
I love visitors.
I should fore warn you, however, that I don't write my own poetry,
can't write a story, don't do
windows,
my best recipe is Toaster Oven Pop Tarts,
I can't make up my mind,
I usually lose my car keys while
they are still in my hand,
in other words, I
have no original talents,
but do know a good poem when I see one,
a funny,
happy, or sad story
when I hear one, have dirty windows,
have great friends
with terrific recipes,
and still can't find my car keys.
So, just maybe,
you will still stay awhile
and follow some of my links to some terrific talent
from other people.
Ok,here is where I am supposed to tell you
a little bit about my self. Which, I really can't do. You see, I'm
only in my EARLY EARLY 50's
so I really don't know myself yet.
When I grow
up I want to be peacefully happy.
That's about all I know about myself so
far.
However, maybe some of the gifts that I receive from my friends
will help you figure me out:
I receive books with titles like:
How to Live on The Ragged Edge,
99,000 Ways to Organize Yourself
(wish I could find that book somewhere,
I thought I put it
with my daily planner, now where is that?),
I have received at least 50
Daily Planners in my life,
12 extra sets of car keys,
How To Potty Train Your Cat,
The 12 Steps To A Better Memory
(I can't find that book either),
How To Talk Your Friends In To
Giving you A Ride To Work
Without Them Realizing It,
Important Things NOT To Say To Your Boss,
and the list goes on.
Well, if you are still with me....
(if not,that's ok,
I'm used to it and don't mind at all!!!)
I'll tell you a little bit
about what you are going to find in here.
My first web page that I built was a birthday letter to my daughter,
Vanessa.
This is the most important cause in my life right now.
In 1971 I feel that I made the biggest mistake of my life.
One that I still haven't recovered from
and probably never will.
I relinquished my first born daughter at
birth to adoption. I can't correct what I did,
nor will I ever feel that I
didn't do the VERY best thing for Vanessa.
But it still has left an
empty spot in my heart,
one that will never be mended until I find her, and
know that she is ok. That I gave her
a life of love, happiness and peace.
Many of the Causes in my life revolve
around Adoption Issues.
Please do
not send me hate email regarding this,
I am NOT against adoption, nor do I have
any intentions of disrupting anyone's life,
but I will keep searching for
Vanessa until I find her.
She deserves to know her roots, she deserves
to know that she wasn't ABANDONED
that she was loved and still is loved very
much, she has a right to know that she
has a sister, Jessica, who longs to know
her to share her roots,
she has a right to find out why she always loses
her car keys when no one else in her family does.
Kathy Denton, author of Search of a Lifetime writes..
"To honor one family, does
not mean to dishonor another".
So, please, no hate mail.
I am missing a
part of my heart, I Have TO KNOW THAT SHE IS OK.
"There
are two days in every week about which we should not worry,
two days which
should be kept free from fear and apprehension.
One of the two days is YESTERDAY, with its
mistakes and cares,
its faults and blunders, its aches and pains.
Yesterday
has passed forever beyond our control.
All the money in the world cannot bring
back yesterday.
We cannot undo a single act we performed.
We cannot erase a
single word we said.
Yesterday is gone.
The other day we should not worry about is TOMORROW,
with its possible
adversities, its burden,
its large promise and poor performance.
Tomorrow
is also beyond our immediate control.
Tomorrow's sun will rise,
either in splendor or behind a mask of clouds
--but it will rise.
Until it does, we have no stake in tomorrow,
for it is yet
unborn.
This leaves only one day -- TODAY --
anyone can fight the battles of just one
day.
It is only when you and I add the
burdens of those two awful eternities --
yesterday and tomorrow -- that we break
down."

known then what I know now..or If I only knew now what I knew then". These
thoughts started the Reflections and Lessons from The Heart pages. Just
thoughts from others with the intentions of helping others along the way.

water!!!
