Write while you still have breath to breathe ... dream while you still have a heart to feel and a head to think. It's a simple poem, but it speaks a large truth.

we believe, Sis, the right to write, before the final flight. I love what you share with the world ... big or small, no matter. We are putting it out in the Universe. Shalom, shalHOME, shalAUM. We shall overcome ... eternity is in our very be-ing Maureen Dear. amen
