Thank you Barbara for your kind comments. Love should be so simple, but alas, it's like a Chinese/Japanese puzzle box that can only be opened by solving a puzzle..."LIFE". Some require only a simple move to open and others a series of discoveries. My daughter is on her own journey now, I've left her a few keys if she gets stuck. She is much loved. All the best for you and yours in the New Year.

Fabulous Lyrics. "White Rabbit", Jefferson Airplane. (Vintage for Georgia). It is very important what that Door Mouse says... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WANNqr-vcx0

It is amazing how much power LOVE can open doors. LOVE is a very powerful force, it's Tsunami waves could wash over this entire planet, if people opened their doors. Merry Christmas to you and yours James.

Some people have neverending stories in them. You have more than stories, you have true "Magic" in your blood Georgia. That is Gold. An ultra-valuable commodity, something worth more than what is placed under a dying tree. In you, that magic lives forever. Never forget that. Keep writing your stories and drawing your "Treasure" Maps - that's how you will find your way "HOME". Love Mum. Christmas 2017.

"“This is what I believe: That I am I. That my soul is a dark forest. That my known self will never be more than a little clearing in the forest. That gods, strange gods, come forth from the forest into the clearing of my known self, and then go back. That I must have the courage to let them come and go. That I will never let mankind put anything over me, but that I will try always to recognize and submit to the gods in me and the gods in other men and women. There is my creed.” D.H. Lawrence
