Thanks so much for your visit and kind words. I find it fascinating how I can feel connected with someone I have never met who lives on the other side of the world who I don't communicate with that often. Still I feel a indescribable warmth and connection. There is just something about your spirit that draws me in. Have a wonderful weekend.
