ReplyDeleteOFF TOPIC: I noticed your comment over on Jess 40th birthday post (Mistress of Mischief) where you wrote your "I can feel your happiness, etc.
ReplyDeleteI was THERE a week ago, and Jess IS the most happy, Serene, spiritual peep I know--one of those who stand right up, unafraid, when they sense something is amiss (in our program/meetings, etc.)
You "see" that from many miles away...maybe that is why I went back there this year again--on my "ride"...the SPIRIT of peeps like Jess (and you and some others) just permeates the area, wherever they are found to be.
love this!
ReplyDeleteGood stuff. Thanks for sharing.
