Woodland Dream


       
 There is a place
                           all moist and green
                                             out where the fairies live.
       And there I go
                         to refresh my soul
                                              out where the fairies live.

This Is Our Job


Print Available - HERE 

"Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy. That is not our business and, in fact, it is nobody's business. What we are asked to do is to love, and this love itself will render both ourselves and our neighbors worthy."

What a wonderful world it would be!
