Remembering.....

Reflection, is what November means to me.  Yet another year has been gifted to this duck and taking stock of wisdom, kindness, empathy, compassion, and the one thing which is increasingly in low abundance, "common sense".
Always questioning, was the one thing my mother said I did.  So true to nature, I questioned the meaning of "insanity"?  Oh, it turns out that "doing the same thing over & over again, but expecting a different outcome" about covers it.  This in mind, lets take stock. 

With the extra hour this month brings, lets use it to Remember, those who made the ultimate sacrifice, and by "doing onto others as we want done onto us" would honor them, as well as ourselves.

This mound of handpainted scarves, were left behind by my mother.  Many years have past, and they have been packed away.  Unpacking them and laundring them, one by one, brought back many conversations (mostly one sided lol) on how to be a better person.  Remembering the definition of insanity, I am happy to report that in some areas....not all .....I have laundered through a small portion of  the character building, handpainted, silky, lifes check list, scarves. 
Someday, not sure which day, they will be sewen together into a complete quilt made by a complete
person? We'll see♥

  5. What an awesome project to take on. Just can't wait to see it pieced together. A mother is someone special in our life and what a way to remember the love and time shared together.
