Two years and three hundred & thirty~six posts ago, Rochambeau was born.
How can this be?
Time moves swiftly. With a blog one has the opportunity to look back and see evidence of how rich and full life is. With all of it's up's and downs, there is still a reflection of beauty. The blogging community is filled with much hope, support, creativity and inspiration!
Here below, is the road to
how we met!
Connecting colorful
Dots..............
If not for Jean and Emily:
I might not have been given
the gift to read..............
(above: My first book, The Color Purple)
If not for journaling, I may have never gained an inner voice to express myself in words.
..............
(Stunning journal above, a gift
from Tara)
If not for Carrie:
I might never have had the courage
to buy my Apple computer,
or known how to use it!
She shared in my joy that day
and continues to share in
my Apple joy today!
..............
Then, there is this important matter of
Miss Ulla: If not for Ulla
(who's blog I gratefully stumbled
upon), I may never have found
the magical world of
Blogging, Her's is Artful
at it's best!
..............
(above silhouette by Ulla, for a recent
class at the Castle in the Air)
If not for Corey: I would
not have had the courage to start a blog.
We spoke over the phone one day and
she said; "You should start a blog".
" It will change your life forever" !
..............
And she's right, it has!
..............
If not for Carrie and Amy:
I wouldn't have been given
the gift of my digital camera.
..............
Then, it was Karen, who helped
me to "see" composition. She
infused her special knowledge and
essence of photography into me.
..............
If not for Susanna,
I would not have a Blog.
She actually came to my house
and set up Rochambeau for me!
Thank you dear Susanna!
..............
Now:
Keep following the dots!
..............
There is
Lovely YOU!!
..............
Thank you for taking the time to read my words, for leaving your kindness, generosity and support, for me to savor. For sharing in my joys, but also for getting me through rough times with finesse. You are the golden thread that held me together during our move, last year! You're great! A comment received is like having classmate passing a secret note, but way more exciting and meaningful!! You are such sweet lambies!
..............
You inspire me. Thank you for expressing yourselves in so many delightful ways throughout this special Blogging universe!
