What truly counts
it's doesn't matter how many prizes we win
how much money we make
how successful we are
what size of home we live in
how many books we have published
what really really really matters
are the treasured friendships we
gather along our way
how blessed I am to have
such a wonderful collection of dear friends
who really and truly care about me
your kind words, unselfish blessings and encouraging comments that you left me in my last post
have blessed me beyond measure
to have friends who are truly enthusiastic about what I do
fills me up in so many more ways than you can ever image
thank you for blessing me
What truly counts are the friends we gather
along the way

.....kindness comes so quickly back to those who
first are kind
let that thought and this one direct you through each day

are the things we give away.

Love all of your words and the truth it speaks . . .
I'm so sorry to say I was not one of those friends, because somehow I missed your last post. (T_T)
I hope all is ok and the clouds have parted to bring you lots of sunshine and rainbows.
And I can only imagine the outpouring of support you'll get anytime you need it. You are too precious and dear for us to leave you alone at times like that.

Lovely thoughts and so true. Have a wonderful weekend!
Oh my darling friend,
How I treasure YOU. I am so late due to....work. I just finished my post that I usually like to have up by Friday, but work and life got busy. How true this all is. I try to tell myself that in moments of stressing over making a new MOVE in life. But I always say what matters is how I BEHAVE in whatever situation I am in as teacher, artist, homemaker, whatever. I will not take my art with me, nor my writing. I will take the character and LOVE that I have sow and gathered along the way.
LOVE TO YOU DEAR HEART. Anita
Such lovely thoughts put into words so beautifully....you are so right, Koralee! Your own sweetness to others comes right back to you, just as it should! Thank you for your lovely friendship too.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend.

Dear Koralee, I just caught up with your last post and I am JUMPING FOR JOY!!! YIPPPEE!!! This is so exciting, and I must tell you, I will be thrilled to be at that bookstore as soon as your treasure lands on those shelves! To have your beautiful talent in book form, and with ice cream treats, no less...this will be bliss, sweet friend.
Just so thrilled for you, and I cannot wait to get this, and to GIFT it too..
Many hugs,

Hello there beloved one..... SNOW FOR YOU? DO YOU KNOW that we are having a HUMID HOT DAY OF 72??? I am sweltering. Something is very strange about our weather for it is US that are supposed to be having the snow! The birds are singing, but there are no leaves on the trees! I saw a fat rabbit PULLING away at a weed and consuming in mass quantities, and the squirrels little ears are still white, in winter mode. But the air is saying SPRING or rather for us, SUMMER!
THANK YOU FOR COMING BY to make my day even brighter. LOVE! Anita
I'm so behind "a book" Wow that is so neat. I can't wait to see it!
Congrats!
Hi Koralee,
Beautiful photo and such lovely words today.
We are all so lucky to have your friendship and all the love, kindness and joy you share around, thank you sweet friend.
Have a wonderful new week
Sending hugs
Carolyn
