! MANY RELIGIONS HAVE THEIR PRECIOUS HEART'S BELOVED SAINTS, SWEET BEAUTIFUL TERRY. MY THOUGHT WOULD FOREVER BE, DID THEY WALK IN LOVE THE BEST THEY COULD ? NOT FOR ONE NOT FOR SOME BUT FOR ALL ? MY HUMBLE TINY VIEW OF SOMEONE CLOSE TO THIS, 'A SAINT.' AND THE ANGEL SAID, 'STAND UP, I AM BUT ONE OF YOU; I WORSHIP OUR FATHER, TOO." THANK YOU, FOR YOUR KIND JOYFUL VISIT; ALWAYS A PLEASURE. MY LOVE, FOREVER, RACHEL *

Oie yoie, I looked at the right side of the screen after reading this, at the ad...Santa's little helper. Reminding me too, that you are one of these helpers, Terry. You've left a small though priceless gift with this write. Something to ingest and visualize. Keep well....Mikki
