Dance with Me

Thursday, May 21, 2009

Tonight, at the Devon Horse Show (or returning from the horse show) I see: Cammy, my high school friend, not to mention the mom of a young lady who has always been an authentic friend to my son. I see George and Shirley, beloved neighbors (even if George says the words in my books are too big). I see the kids from my church, the husband of an old friend, the former chairman of the board of a favorite company.

I go out with my camera, and I return with my world. A full heart. A deep gratitude that makes some think me sentimental.

I'm not sentimental. Don't call me that. I'm in love with the life I have been granted.

What a wonderful sentiment. How many people can say that? How many people actually think about it?
While your photos are gorgeous, the sentiments you write are sometimes indescribable.
I, too, am thankful for the life I am granted, regardless of the downs and trials that occur. And it is nice to share your life through your words and photos.
Thanks.
