I too LOVE the sunflower picture. I was thinking about what picture to put with the article and in my mind I saw a sunflower. I used to grow them when I was a child, and I remember that as soon as the seeds were ripe, the birds would come and pick all the seeds out of the flower. Back a few years ago when I rode a Harley, I was riding through Nebraska and came across a huge field of sunflowers. As I drove past them, all had their heads pointed toward the sun and all I could see was the backside of the flowers. Except for one – for some reason it was pointed away from the sun and looking at me. I carried that beautiful image with me for many miles. It's just so amazing that when we set out to see, smell, hear, and feel the beauty already around us, it's almost overwhelming. Thanks for your constant posts – your words, your attitude in life, and our connection makes me happy! Love Annette Hi there Kathleen!

Today I found an old friend on Facebook.....this made me very happy. I called a few of my friends to see how they are doing and had a few laughs. Laughter is always the best medicine, so I take the initiative and try to make people laugh when I feel they are down. Since the weather is still warm enough to keep the window open, I always awaken to birds chirping......love my mornings! Chirp, chirp! Kathleen Hi Annette,
