  1. derrickjknight – UK – I am an octogenarian enjoying rambling physically and photographing what I see, and rambling in my head as memories are triggered. I also ramble through a lifetime's photographs. In these later years much rambling is done in a car.

  3. the Ordinary Hiker – New Philadelphia, Ohio – A Christian camp director for many years, I enjoy ministry and being outdoors. I refer to God's creative wonder as the testimony of creation, a special place where God brings His word to life. Its where I like to be and where God speaks in His gentle voice in the awe of His creative work.

  4. wings~of~dawn – California, USA – Love my enemy??? Aesthetically inspired, embracing life, loving my Lord my family, my friends...and yes, my enemies (not 'cuz I feel like it either.) The Godfather, Part III (1990) Vincent Mancini: [in the helicopter]I'd like to take Joey Zasa up in one of these and drop him. Michael Corleone: Joey Zasa is nothing. He's a small-time enforcer. He bluffs, threats, but nothing. You can see him coming a mile away. Vincent Mancini: We should kill him before he kills... Michael Corleone: No! Never hate your enemies. It affects your judgment. God, the Father via his Son, (Scripture circa after BC and before AD). Luke 6:35 "But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil." Love your friends? Anyone can do that. Love your enemies? Now there's a challenge. Soft-spoken, open to new. Taking the plunge !!

  5. 2ndhalfolife – In the second (or really third?) half of my life now. Moving into the more crone stage: out of my head, into my soul. I am revisiting this blog after many years, many life changes and challenges and finding myself surrounding by joy and resilience. Join me for the transformation and transition.

    So cool…I collect heart rocks. It’s amazing how when you start being aware of them, you see them all the time…..

  7. Cynthia Guenther Richardson – Pacific NW – Hello fellow readers and bloggers, Writing has always been a powerful connector to diverse ideas and people. We each are a meaningful part of this beautiful, ever-widening web of life. Blogging enables more interaction, which I love even after 11 years of blogging posts on three different sites. For thirty years I was an addictions/mental health counselor and also a manager of home care services for elderly folks. Now that I have hit 70 and am more devoted to a creative life! I've published online or in literary journals/collections several times, including fiction and creative non-fiction pieces and poetry over five decades. Additionally, I was nominated for a Pushcart Prize for an excerpt of my novel-in-progress, Other than Words (the work gathering dust at present), about a mute dancer and her impact on her adopted community and a world-travelling photojournalist. I also am working on a connected set of stories about a close-knit town in northern Michigan. On Wordpress I enjoy writing about living richly despite (or because of) life's setbacks and a diagnosis of heart disease at age 51. Posts tagged "memoir" share spiritual adventures, interactions with nature, the healing of trauma's impact and challenges of writing full-time. Short stories and creative nonfiction, and poetry are favorite genres but I enjoy sharing my photography as well My hope is my offerings reflect a profound faith in God and our humanness which cloaks spiritual natures. I include myself as part of the diverse group of writers who discover and share the illuminating, positive experiences amid life's uncertainties and hardships. Let me hear from you when you visit--I appreciate your comments a great deal. Blessings and regards, Cynthia

    Fine grouping and words.

  8. Laura – Western MA – I've been a visual artist and crafts person for most of my life and am now a jewelry maker. I worked "9 to 5" while raising my wonderful daughter and when she was grown and flown and rooted firmly, I decided to start new chapter in my life. I moved from a busy, crowded NYC suburb to the hills and beauty of western MA. A few months after I settled in I was diagnosed with cancer, but I survived and now thrive! Surprisingly, cancer brought many silver linings into my life, including a clearer picture of my life's purpose and a deepening of my spirituality. It also made me realize "If not now, when?" So, after years of diaries and journals and professors encouraging me, I mustered the courage to begin a blog. I write because I enjoy it, because the muse visits often and because it's important to tell the truth. Connections make my world go 'round, so I hope my words resonate with readers and perhaps start a dialogue or two!

    I collect stones and these are just wonderful! As always, your words are the perfect, thoughtful compliment.

  9. Rene Yoshi – Just a transplanted Okinawan-French Southern girl with a wee bit o' Irish, sharing photography and what I'm learning about spiritual things, including putting off legalism and religious traditions, and embracing God's matchless love, tender mercy, and amazing grace!
    Rene Yoshi says:

    Yes! We do risk being hurt when we open up our hearts, but the risk is often worth it. Beautiful image! Is the ‘rock’ on the right a heart-shaped coral?

  10. firefly1275 – Louisiana – V. Rose enjoys creating mystical characters and worlds, with a touch of the modern day world. When she is not writing or thinking up her next story ideas, she is enjoying South Louisiana sunset.

    Very beautiful photo!

  11. LB – I'm a woman who loves spending time on the motorcycle and in, or on, any body of water. I love traveling and reading, baking and cooking, taking way too many pictures, and enjoying my family and friends. Life is an adventure, and I want to remember and express my joy for it! This is a journal for me ... so I'll never forget the good times and to remind me of them on more challenging days.
    LB says:

    what a neat collection of heart shaped rocks (and I love the person who wrote “between a rock and a heart place”)

  12. anishmadeti – A seemingly happy boy-next-door, with lots of eccentricities, who loves everything which is philosophy, economy, digital, literature, and english and more importantly human. You might hate my being judgemental but love me for being open to changing them, briefly put I hate typecasting people and consider them to have a million personalities in a unique body.
