Beauty Within.
Laura🌻 said:

Andy,

Reading “Beauty Within” and Fay‘s “Be To Me”, made me think of the lyrics
‘Look into my eyes You will see’...
sung in one of my favorite songs by Bryan Adams—“(Everything I do)
I Do It For You”.

I enjoyed the read.
My mind was flooded
with many thoughts and
happy memories!
Thank you for sharing.

BRIAN HERE ~ Thanks for the Music nothing quite like a Shostokovitch Walz to lift the Spirits during lockdown ~ thanks for shariing !
WOW some drive & ice cream and coffee thrown in. Kent is a beautiful County in Spring / Summer ~ especially on a Sunny day ! Did yiu see any signs of *Lockdown Loosening* ? Where did you start from ? The distance from Broadstairs to Dover is about 25 miles (by road) so you gave your motor a *good run* which is important ! Angela takes ours to Work each day and we clock up a few more miles @ the weekend. Sounds like a lovely day out ~ AMEN. Please check *Patio Pond Paradise* ~ Thanks !

Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Brian & Angela 💛💛💛

We can\'t go far wrong with a bit of xeno-wotsit!
We\'ve had it then - we were 70 in about 1120, if we fought at Hastings as young men! We\'re millions of years old anyway. lol.
Beginning of the end? Well, that\'s put the tin hat on any happiness! doh!

ANGELA HERE - Good Morning Uncle ANDY a beautiful Song (Moon River) - Movie Clip and Poem to wake up to and have to face Hospital Work after all the Fun & Joy of yesterday with Pater Nosters ! You are something of an MSN Poet Laureate being abe to conjour up Poems for Highdays & Holidays. Your Poem is a lovely Acrostic for your Friend enters his 70th year. The term SEVENTY PLUS is used to describe the *Beginning of the End* so one might want to relish it - like in recent Years I wanted to be 29 forever ! Your Poem is a great encouragement to one who you see as *User Friendly* (The Greeks always have a WORD for it) A person who both gives & accepts Friendship should have no fear of being 70 or 30 for that matter. Im thankful that my abliy to be a *Friend* improves with age - AMEN.

Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian 💛💛💛💛💛

What it is to grow into old age eh? But compensation rests in knowing someone who knows how to be a real friend in all kinds of weather. Someone who can encourage the belief in tomorrows sunshine.

Do You Tread the New Path?

Great tribute to your friend Andy.

When opportunity knocks
Decisions must be made
Take the road to happiness
Walk the path unafraid

Do You Tread the New Path?
Laura🌻 said:

Andy,

A great read to remind us that the road we travel can be a rocky one! Here’s a quote by Mehmet Murat ildan that I refer to when I feel overwhelmed by what is happening around me.

“The road to happiness has never been a straight one, and yet, it is the only road worth traveling, no matter how curvy or rocky it is.”

I hope your friend’s choice will bring her the happiness she deserves.

Laura🌻

P.S.-Happy Father’s Day!🎈

I hope you are away enjoying a change of scenery.
Yes, we should take advantage of the changing circumstances in our lives. There is plenty of the good and wholesome out there for us.

Do You Tread the New Path?
ANGELA & BRIAN said:

ANGELA HERE - Thanks for sharing UNCLE ANDY. Love the pathos in Ellas Lyric :

They*re writing songs of love - but not for me
A lucky star*s above - but not for me
With love to lead the way I*ve found more clouds of gray
Than any Russian play could guarantee .........................
I guess he*s not for me ............................
And there*s nought I guess - he*s not for me !

This reflects my experiences so often in the past - before I me!t Brian. I am so so glad I waited for the Proverbial Mister Right ! When we decided to get ENGAGED (a first for both of us @ 28 & 33) and get married a few Months ago - these were very big decisions & life changers I had never cohabited with a MAN. So far - so good but (as you know) there has to be an equilibrium of GIVE & TAKE ! Smokey has been a great Blessing and we lovei t when he cuddles up (equally) between us. *Home is where the CAT is* and any probs we may have melt away ! He purrs louder when we stroke Him together ! Being MARRIED is a wonderful revelation for both of us and as Mamma Cass said *Our Love is growing - deeper - warmer - wilder - every Day* AMEN !

Blessings & Peace to You & Yours & the Croquet Club !
Love Angela & Brian & Smokey 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛

Good write Gold. I was stopped by a huge puddle on a ramble. I had not tried a nearby track. It just happened to be an alternative route, which missed the impassable puddle!
