Happy Birthday<\/strong><\/p>\n

February 7th was\u00a0my birthday.<\/p>\n

I’m sure I’m not the only one having a birthday this month.
\nIn fact, I imagine that each day of the year there is someone having a birthday some where in the world.<\/p>\n

How awesome is that.<\/p>\n

We were born. We’re here.<\/p>\n

We can celebrate Life.<\/p>\n

With every breathe we live.
\nThough in the same token it is said that we are that much closer to our departing.<\/p>\n

We can cherish the present moments now.<\/p>\n

I once heard the poem, “Breathe in Peace, Breathe out Love” in a funeral sermon.<\/p>\n

(main chorus phrase)<\/p>\n

Breathe in Peace.
\nBreathe out Love.<\/p>\n

Breathe in Peace.
\nBreathe out Love.<\/p>\n

Take a quiet moment to join in this meditation.<\/p>\n

Big breathe in.
\n“Breathe in Peace”.<\/p>\n

Breath the breathe out.
\n“Breathe out Love.”<\/p>\n

Thank you for being a part of my life and journey.

“Miss 545 and Foal”<\/p>\n

Pastel Portrait<\/a><\/p>\n

“Miss545 was a school horse I rode when I took riding lessons in the 1990’s. We had great fun.
\nShe was also a broodmare that the farm owners bred to their stallion. She had 3 foals.
\nI got to see them.
\nTreasured memories.<\/p>\n

Cherish the memories.<\/p>\n

Soldier Portraits<\/strong>
\nDarla Dixon organized a group of artists who will create no-charge compassionate portraits for the families who have lost a loved one in Operation Iraqi Freedom\/Operation Enduring Freedom. We are looking for artists to join our efforts, and also for non-artists who will help spread the word about this free service and token of our gratitude to families who have sacrificed so much.”<\/p>\n
