doing nothing,
Spring comes
and the grass grows by itself.
Zen proverb
~
A Window is Where the Wall is Absent
The life impulse to express and to connect arises in me and in all of us. This blog is a celebration of these life impulses. Please feel free to join in the conversation or to just visit. There is a Family Photo Album beneath the posts so you can "meet" my family and I. Welcome!

Pictures! yea! And proverbs.
Hi Cindy,
I'm undergoing a painstaking process of becoming computer literate, and learning to post photos makes me feel like a kid at the skating rink suddenly able to do figure eights. Thanks for visiting my humble living room here in cyberspace, now with pictures on the wall. Love, Colleen
