Lifting you up...
I cannot look at you but I see you,
I cannot hear you but I listen to your voice,
I cannot touch you but I feel your love.
You are my sisterfriend.
I don't know who sent you or how you came
or how I went to you.
It does not matter now.
All that matters is we care for each other
...and I love you.
Be well my dearest beloved Arija
My counsel, my guide, my wise friend.
You have given me so much.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
You taught me to love
when there was a good reason to hate.
You taught me to trust
when there was a good cause to disdain.
You always believed in me,
You always held me up high,
Now I summon every strength,
every thought,
every love,
every prayer.
Be well my beloved friend.

Ces my darling, thank you! I shall do my utmost to hang on to that sturdy trunk for as long as I csn my dear. Since the aortic valve replacement 5 years ago, I have been living on borrowed time and when my darling daughter introduced be to the blogging world, finding great friends to share my thoughts with.
Last year God took my precious garden from me, I have come to terms with that. To create a wonder of a garden to the glory of God. even out of a heart full of love, now seems almost blasphemous. I just hope I am given a little more time to write down the story of my early life. I had hoped to illustrate it as well but that, I fear, is shooting at the stars.
Thank you again for being there for me, for caring and for lifting me up when I am down.
All my love and healing prayers, dear Arija! Be well!! A lovely tribute to your dear sisterfriend, Ces! I feel lucky to be part of this caring community! Love, SIlke
Rich and deep and powerful. It is just as friendship should be - Arija will be well because that is how it must be. Ces, you make sisterhood such a very precious treasure.
I send Arija my love and warm, healing thoughts.
My love and healing vibes to Arja!
This is a wonderful tribute to Arja and your friendship! You are a true sisterfriend Ces!!
Sweet Words

Yes, be well our dear friend. Thank you Ces.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Arija. The depth of your feelings and friendship are so beautifully expressed Ces.
Madisyn sqeauled at this picture, she loves it.
I hope that Arija is going to be ok! I will keep her in my heart!
Thank you Ces, you deserve to be showered with gifts.
My love is in the things I make and that is how it shows.
It makes it even better that you like them.
You are so welcome.
Got your note and thank you so much, I do love you too and you should know that I don't say that often or without a solid reason. Be on the lookout for something tiny coming to you, it should be there with a little pair of wings, that I hope the USPS don't decide they are not regulation, LOL!
Hugs from here, and I hope Arija finds the strength in your friendship that we all need when our bodies seem to ignore our needs and our wishes. I am sending her my best ones and she can always visit our garden since there is no such thing as "my garden" all gardens as far as I believe belong to all who love to make things grow and she would always be welcome here.
Oh for fuck sake Ces. har har
xoxo
Your words are so sweet and comforting...I can feel your gentle loving touch and I will add her to my prayers. Be well dear sister. Imagine and Live in Peace, Mary Helen Fernandez Stewart
