Remembering 9/11/2001

9/11/2001....a day that will never be forgotten. A day that wasn't suppose to happen. A day that took so many from their loved ones in just a heart beat. A day that made HEROS. A day that made all of us realize that we are not out of harms reach. A day that made even those that might not have done so in years, get down on their knees and pray. Pray for those lost. Pray for those that didn't think about themselves and ran into the buildings to rescue whomever they could. Pray for those injuried, physically and mentally. Pray for those families that would be touched by such a tragic event for a lifetime. Pray that GOD would provide strength and courage.

9/12/2001....a day that awoke a Nation. A Nation that would not be told that it is weak. A Nation that would hold it's head up high and take ACTION against those that harmed her. A Nation that realized so many souls were lost the day before but not in vain.....those SOULS brought a Nation back together. A Nation that would stand UNITED.

9/11/2011....a day ten years later. A day that upon rising, I went to my knees to say a prayer for all those lost, all those families and individuals affected, all those brave men and women that will always be a Hero, all those working on the memorial so it will never be forgotten.

Today started with a brilliant sun rise.....a sunrise that reminds me that there will always be a new day. The footprints remind me that we never walk alone.....no matter what happens.

Until next time.....my thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Thursday Inspiration

Greetings Moe!! Just doing my morning walkabout to get some inspiration. Yep,yep...morning Elmo!! Just staring out at the vast blue ocean to get mine.

Hey wait up Elmo!!! I think I will join you on that walkabout. I need some inspiration. Slow down..will ya?

Whew...that Elmo sure can walkabout fast. I think I will just walk by myself for a bit. Whew...I'm pooped!!!

OK I think I will just stop and stare out at the ocean again. She always gives me inspiration...and a few other gifts..if I'm patient.

See....she left some sea floor beauties. Not much I can do with them but I know a human who can do amazing things with them.

As you can see, we have some very whimsical and comical characters that live here and I am always being whispered to when I see them.(or look at the beauties that the ocean does offer up to us)  Now, I'm off to make a few tiny mermaids to go with these shell bases. What are you working on today?

Until next time........HUGS!!!
