We are such a great and intern...Oh, Dear Friends-<br /><br />We are such a great and international group today--with Marcy in California, Charlotta in Australia, Karena in Kansas, Modern Country Lady in Wiltshire, UK, and Elizabeth on the East Coast, Cristin in San Francisco, and Helen painting in Florida!<br />Love it. Welcome to all. Friends chatting across the miles, across the fence.<br />I've loved the response to my three poems. I've saved them in a file for years and was inspired to send them out on the airwaves. <br />I love the imagery of the beehive in the heart...making honey 'out of my past failures'. It puts 'failures' and worries and 'troubles' and 'difficulties' in a new light. 'And all of our dragons are princes in disguise' said Rilke.<br />So I have a favorite motto to give you for 2011--<br />'Five minutes to get over it'.<br />A 'problem' comes up--five minutes to get over it.<br />A stress arrives--five minutes to get over it.<br />An annoyance distracts--five minutes to get over IT.<br />Worries cause headaches--five minutes to get over it.<br />You might even cut it down to 'four minutes to get over it'...I know I have.<br />Cheers to you all...sleep well, and dream well.

Thank you so m...DEAR FRIENDS...around the world...<br /><br />Thank you so much for your enthusiasm and generosity and kindness.<br /><br />I will find more inspiring poems for you! I've had such a great response to these brief and unexpected poems--and lots of comment on FACEBOOK, I might add, to my gift of poems.<br />'For inspiration at odd moments'...and we will have them in 2011. I think it is going to be a fantastic year, full of promise and music and happy people, creative people, beauty, ideas and jolts to our set notions of the world. We are here in the world--nowhere better to live--and in the end, things are good.<br />I wish you every happiness and joy--and do stay in touch. i love hearing from you.
