Lainesblog Thinking Out Loud

Safe enough to sleep wherever exhaustion steals you away

and to know that you are surrounded by family and friends.

Faith that you are loved and accepted for who you are

and that you can love like that too, without expectations.

And a heart big enough to see the blessings wrapped in each day.

Thanks to Carol for sharing her bracelet that reminded me that I am SAFE AND LOVED.

Thanks especially to Andrew who is sleeping in this photo taken a hundred years ago.

And, Happy Birthday, Libby!!!!
