the candle is to remind us to keep our prayers and thoughts for all of those suffering from one type of cancer or the other. It reminds us of the light it brings into our world and it helps us to remember that each one needs the light to show them the way.
So today, a chilly Tuesday back east where the temperatures have gone below the below zero and it is difficult to be outdoors when the chill factor bites your very nose. Go carefully, and don't go if you can stay put withing the warmth of your home. You can find better things to do than slip and slide outdoors in the cold. Find a candle and light it and say a small prayer for the cancer victims and ask for a big miracle. . . a cure. When I light my candles this month, I will remember to ask for winter to leave . . .
"Winter is leaving, slowly it seems/trees still naked, gray and stark,/benches free, not a soul in the park/ familiar roads turning and twisting/high rocks of granite/sunshine glistening/ box elder with burls, old and gnarled/ standing gray and bent, getting ready to bloom/ as the sap runs up from winter gloom.
Winds are shifting,up high in the sky/clouds thready patterns please the eye/winter is leaving, slowly it seems/the sap is running to the top of the trees, buds are forming, soon leaves will abound/slowly and surely spring comes around." J.M.S.
The cartoon for the day . . . like the poem about winter leaving, the events of the day are changing. Watch, and wait. . . soon there will be good news, after all election time will be coming around and it always seems to bring some changes with it. Let us hope and pray for some good ones as we all need a boost to our morale.
So today, make it the best you can no matter if you are inside or out. Know that you are pretty well off in comparison to a lot of folks in your abilities to get ahead in your world both physically and mentally. So be thankful you are healthy, wealthy and wise and share the hugs as they are only good for what ails you. Hugs to all.
