Invincible Summer
“In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.
And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back.”
Albert Camus
For Gin, who taught me the Blessings of life.
Everyday is a Good Day
Everyday is a good day
each moment a blessing,
each breath a prayer of thanksgiving
Just as the sun lay to rest
with Grace,
Strength,
Courage and
Love
In my heart, with you
everyday is the best day.
As the day ends the skyline of Boston was a glorious perfection. Its magic light suspended the burning sun who’s going to leave.
Together they traveled many miles and like floating clouds will drift apart. There will be no tears for no one is gone. The days will be silent not forgotten for as long as each sacred moonlight glow. Only happy times linger just as the sun rises.
The memory of that day with Gin & John will forever be with me. That day was a good day !
For Gin

Winter Falls
After a cloudy day,
After the white gray skies
No matter how hard the rain falls
No matter how chilly the fog is, the clouds will go away.
It is there just for the moment.
It is there for the time being.
Soon the sun will break through.
Soon sadness will leave.
Only blessings and peace will remain
Only beautiful memories will linger
Always and Forever.
For Lizz

Finishing
“When you think you have given it all, when you don’t even have the strength to stand tall, think of it as just the beginning, of the pain you will endure until finishing.”

Stratofortress
Stratofortress
Please be patient.
I am an aged relic, a distant memory.
A witness to cycles of defeat and glory
Through unfriendly skies,
I rise again
for one more roll in the distant horizon.

The Boeing B-52 Stratofortress is a long-range, subsonic, jet-powered strategic bomber. The B-52 was designed and built by Boeing, which has continued to provide support and upgrades. It has been operated by the United States Air Force (USAF) since the 1950s. The bomber is capable of carrying up to 70,000 pounds (32,000 kg) of weapons. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_B-52_Stratofortress
Boeing B52 D Stratofortress
The B-52 is considered the longest servicing front-line military aircraft in aviation history. With air-to-air refueling, B52s are truly a global aircraft and have flown nonstop around the world, some 24000 miles. B-52 bombers were considered the weapon the enemy feared most in the Vietnam War. B-52Ds would fly too high to be seen or heard, dropping over one hundred 500lbs bombs each.
The BUFFs (Big Ugly Fat Fellows) have survived wars, modernization and remained in the active Air Force Inventory for almost 50 years.

Under the Lilac tree
Under the lilac tree
A purple sunset inspire the soul
to release the past
embrace new ideas
new relationships,
new perspectives.
Sweet flowers alone bring
visions of future
Resilience,
Richness and
plain perfect beauty of life.
It wasn’t so long ago
the cherished thoughts become the loveliest bouquets
Under the lilac tree.

Your Light
Your light has illuminated darkened paths,
your gaze has lifted broken spirits,
and already your life has changed the course of history.
This is the time of year we celebrate.
Here’s to a year full of Happy Days !

The smaller things
Focus on the details of the world around
as it expand into a never-ending stream of delight
Notice the petals of a flower
The fine points of a building or
the play of light and shadow on an object.
Breathe …
See things as they are
Welcome inspiration and
Remain in this state of pure awareness
You will learn Clarity.
