FRIENDS FRIDAY ~ What A Wonderful World



The words of this song have always had so much meaning for me.  
It was played at my wedding, and at so many other times throughout my life.  
Of course, admittedly I've most loved hearing the magical voice of Louis Armstrong sing it!  

And these words have been in my mind over recent days, thinking of all of you ~ 
who have reached out to me with prayers, comforting words, friendship, love and gifts of support.  

You ~ "the colors of the rainbow ~ on the faces of people going by" ~ 
We, sharing much on our journeys through life, through these pages,
yet rarely meeting to touch, to "shake hands", yet always giving to one another.

If you have not yet heard from me personally, believe me, I am writing, one by one by one ... 

Yes, I think to myself ... What A Wonderful World

Love, Ann

  5. The blogging community is an amazing place with so much support and generosity from people, many of whom we have never even met. Hopefully you will get some help for the expenses of the person you lost. Such a sad story.
