Soooo... here it is... taking words and making them into a
posting...
"To live content with small means; to seek
elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion, to be worthy,
not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk
gently, act frankly, to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with
open heart, to bear all cheerfully, to all bravely await occasions, hurry
never. In a word, to let the spiritual unbidden and unconscious grow up through
the common. This is to be my symphony."
William Henry Channing (1810-1884)
Hmmmm... what do I, Fifi, do with these
words... PAINT them... Make them into a painting...
What this painting says to moi... an elegant bedroom to wake up in every morning... to greet the NEW day and be THRILLED to be able to REJOICE with my FAMILY and FRIENDS... a TRUE LUXURY!!!
TODAY... I share this posting with YOU and
SPLENDEROSA's FABuLOUS By Invitation Only group!!!
ENJOY!

Hi Fifi!!
As you know, I've been cruising off the wild Alaskan coast & have been away from the internet all week. You have done splendidly with this lovely art piece you've posted today. It's absolutely perfect, just like YOU. Thank you once again for joining all of us. I think we had a big success, and I am so grateful to have each one of you in my life. Big hug, darling one...
