Re: Heartwings Love Notes 843 - Patience Training: "It's waiting for things
that tests my patience. buses, trains, letters, people, money etc. oh and
being put on hold on the phone by the council.....it's not like I'm going to
pay them anyway ha ha.
the train system would test the patience of a saint." - love - Paul.

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 843 - Patience Training: "I enjoyed
your essay on patience. This is a daily spiritual practice for me. I use
centering prayer/meditation and mindfulness. I remember when I was in my 30s
and working in geriatric psych unit. I asked my patients what advice they
would give me for growing old. They said "learn to slow down." Love, -M.P.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 843 - Patience Training: "Tasha, I really enjoyed
this one my friend. Patience is one of my weakest qualities that needs the
most work. God too seems to keep sending me situations that I have to
exercise my patience on. Thanks for the great tips too. I think love and
compassion are both keys to patience as well." God bless you always. Wishing
you every joy, -J.M.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 843 - Patience Training: "Tasha Dear, It is always
a challenge to have patience and your assessment of getting along with aging
is certainly a strong point. I love my aging process - it is more
challenging than being very active in business when I was younger. I would
love to finish my book but patience is necessary as the memories are
squashed into a solid bar of information and I must separate the individual
elements of the information in order to communicate well with an unknown
audience. Once I can filter the past and empty the trash I will be able to
enjoy the here and now better. What do you think?" -H.T.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 843 - Patience Training: "A couple of observations
from the Cayce Readings. First the joke about the minister, well, that is
exactly how the Readings say it happens. I always caution people against
praying for strength, patience, faith and the like. In fact, when they are
seemingly assaulted by life with such situations, I will ask if they have
been praying for patience. The answer is invariably, yes. I think the
indigenous have it right. All their prayers are of gratitude and never
asking for anything! The second is the Reading that says, 'with patience, ye
possess your soul' Sorry, I do not know the number. Thanks for this… While I
do not feel old, I do know there are those who would call me old. I also
find myself holding the door for “older” people, only to realize later that
they are my age! What a hoot! One thing I do know about aging is that we do
not age inside. I do not think we ever change inside except in the case of
emotional trauma that results in illness." -S.G.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 843 - Patience Training: "Learning patience for me
was living life itself and what it through at me

patience. That’s my story!! What a beautiful and true read!" Thank you -L.T.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 842 - The Mixed Blessing of Aging: "Aging, for me,
is about perspective. I look back at my youth with much affection and few
regrets. One of the greatest influences in my life was "Be Here Now" by a
professor who called himself Baba Ram Das. His message was to live life
fully in the present time with appreciation. At 62, I very much appreciate
my present life. The energy continues, the awareness is sharper, my
spiritually grows deeper, my writing skills and musical abilities profit
from years of thought and practice and, best of all, I'm still playing a
damn good game of golf." -R.D.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 842 - The Mixed Blessing of Aging: "When it comes
to aging I find myself having been 33 for many, many years. I was recently
called to show up for a Jury pool. I looked around as I arrived and realized
I was the oldest woman in the building. I also was one of very few people
who do not use assistance to walk or hear. As I age I am gathering more and
more delicious, delightful memories to treasure. I don't feel pressured to
hurry these days because I don't have to answer to a boss for a paycheck and
I get to design my days the way I like. Old age comes to all who hang around
long enough to welcome it. We are blessed beyond measure. Thank you for a
provocative topic!" I LOVE YOU. Hugs -C.B.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 841 - The Delicious, Mystical Peach: "Hi Tasha -
My mum, a Mountain Woman from the hills of Virginia (as you may recall from
my past replies) taught me, as her mother taught her, to can all manner of
foods. Peaches were high on the list of wonderful winter treats, as you also
remember. My favorite part of helping mum can peaches was her getting so
exhausted after a full day of canning that she started calling the peaches
(pardon the coarse language) "little yellow bastards". We had such a laugh
over that and I will never forget the beautiful times with her harvesting
and buying produce at the weekly farmer's market where I was raised in
upstate New York, and then canning and freezing all that our family needed
for the winter. How I miss the tastes that came from our cellar shelves!" -T.K.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 841 - The Delicious, Mystical Peach: "Dear Tasha,
I read this piece about peaches to Blue and he wanted to share his story
about throwing a peach seed into the back yard when he was seven. It grew
into the most beautiful tree with tons of peaches and it wasn't planted! My
story about peaches is that, growing up in the South, peaches were always a
part of home made ice cream we cranked. When we went to visit my grandmother
in Birmingham we would go to the huge farmer's market and buy lots of
peaches which I would help them put up to freeze. Thanks for sharing your
insights and life with us!" Love, -E.B.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 841 - The Delicious, Mystical Peach: "Peaches!
Yes, I love to buy boxes of 'seconds' from the Farmer's Market. I eat them
on the spot, at home with yogurt, and I peel and cut them into pie sized
servings to freeze. No sugar. They are already so sweet they run down my
chin. I will definitely notice how they transport me to land of Fae next
time! Loved your stories of peach power! Also love Paul Beryl's books. I'm
so glad he is a favorite of yours as well. -S.F.-

Re: "Heartwings Love Notes 840 - Being of a Saving Nature: "Hi Tasha - I am
not a "things" person, but I do have a few bits and pieces of my
grandmother's and my mum's. They were Mountain People from the hills of
Virginia - just 10 miles north and east of the North Carolina border. I have
the cast iron skillet that my granny handed down to my mum, which was then
passed to me. I use it all the time and love remembering the many times it
has fed me from childhood to now. I also cherish my granny's water ladle,
from which each of us dipped into her bucket in the kitchen for cool drinks
fresh from the well to quench our thirst. And her gravy bowl that she used
to hold milk gravy - or what Northerners might have called white sauce - to
ladle over her fresh pone bread and biscuits for breakfast. Sometimes, when
she could afford it, she crumbled breakfast sausage meat into it. Ahh, I can
still taste it! Other little gifts from friends are my treasures. It takes
so little to make one happy when there are so many memories in such dear
possessions!" -T.N.-

Re: "Heartwings Love Notes 840 - Being of a Saving Nature: "I truly enjoyed
this HeartWing Love Note. My dad passed away last year and when we were
cleaning up his things, we found out that he was a collector of so many
things - perhaps not hoarding yet when one has 27 watches and 32 coin purses
you wonder what that is all about. My dad was born in Egypt and grew up
during many wars and was transplanted from one country to another where they
could take nothing when they moved. When I bought my house, I too had a
stash drawer or two of things. Over the years, I find that things have
energy that can either bind you or release you. My rule is something comes
in something has to leave and if I am not using it, I would rather share it.
I do so enjoy your love notes and so appreciate you sharing them. If you
recall, we met at the Peace Within Retreat at Brahma Kumaris in the
Catskills Mountains." -G.L.-

lots of woolen blankets and bedclothes. I find that interesting, and I

Particularly on a part of being constantly , constantly overeating and
taking pills for everything. We do not have just one pill that would help us
to think out of TV and other boxes. My spouse is 96 eating all his life so
small amount of food that people always were amazed how he survive eating so
little ...and he always was amazed how those people were survived by eating
so much food. Being 96 he is shaped physically and mentally, going to gym
every day, living independently with a little help from different sides. He
always believed in slow type of eating and drinking 30 min before eating.
But the most important for him always was a creativity in life. Now when he
can not draw and paint he writes a poems .... In Russian. Just wanted to
share with you my little experience of life with a unique character who is
my best friend for 40 years. Have you heard that in Japan it is a habitual
to drink 640 gram of water in the morning ,before eating and brush teeth .
After this drink people do not eat 45 min. Such beginning of the day cleans
out body ,out of toxic things and brings system to a normal chemistry. It
takes care of blood pressure and a lot of minor disorder .... And major as
well. Search about it and use it . Japan's aged people are the most healthy
elders in a World .
Aug 5th 2018 4:15PM
By the Way I and my spouse never takes pills unless it is urgent emergency
and more .... Doctors want us to take pills .... They want us to be ill ....

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 836 - The Three Bite Strategy: How Much Is

not just liver, such as heart, tripe, brains,...As well as the child who
until adolescence wouldn't even try chicken! I chose not to engage in
the food battle with my son. It was his friends who came to my home and
loved my cooking that had more influence on his willingness to try all sorts
of foods. Now he eats everything and loves hot sauces as well. T.L.

I can not remember the name of it, but it had to do with
God and positive thinking. Moral of this movie, actually I would not
consider it to be a movie...see there I go again, judging! Positive
begets positive. Ah, heck! why not try this! Example: I meet a woman who has
purple hair (!!!!) but I really like here necklace, and I
comment on it. she smiles and says thank you. A man passes me by and says
hello and I compliment his tie and he too lights up.

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 824 - Be Careful What You Wish For: "Yep, now that
I pay the family house bills for my dad... which he did all those years it
amazes me how much it costs to keep up a pool no one uses and that you can't
empty out a pool etc etc. I didn't wish to have a pool. In fact, I had quite
an accident in that pool the day before I left for my first day of a certain
camp, skinning my nose so I had to wear a band aid like all the girls who had
had nose jobs that summer. It was fun and the pictures from those days are
great but still... Good job tying it in with wishes granted... so true. If
you get what you wanted you so often found you didn't really want it, or
certainly need it!" -L.G.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 819 - The Preciousness of Remembering: "Hi Tasha,
It's interesting that I read this Heartwings today. My old leather couch
developed a tiny tear in one of the seat cushions, and yesterday I'd been
thinking that one of these days I should get a new couch. Or 'davenport'as
my grandparents would say! At that time I looked around the living room and
realized that, beyond a watercolor and a new set of curtains, I haven't
really changed my decor in almost twenty years! I grew up as you did, in a
home where we used stuff until it wore out, and well made furniture that's
cared for lasts for generations! I don't get tired of things that have
meaning -- Grandma's sewing cabinet, my grandfather's writing desk, the
rocking chair I loved to sit in when I visited Grandma and Grandpa, the
wooden high chair my father sat in as a baby, the oil painting that belonged
to my great-grandparents. My bedroom set was purchased at an antique
warehouse in the 70s and has traveled around the East coast and across
country and back with me. These things have become a part of who I am, and I
dread the inevitable day I am forced to downsize. Today I stopped in to Home
Goods looking for dog shampoo, and found myself tempted by so much of their
shiny new merchandise -- mass produced lamps, furniture, decorative items,
linens, and so on. It's all marketed so beautifully, designed to make you
want to take it home. I satisfied myself with a couple of new washcloths and
the dog shampoo and remembered that nothing there would make me happier than
what I already had. As todays world changes at an accelerating pace,
surrounding yourself with the people and things you love is more important
than ever." Thanks for your writings, -W.R.-

Re: "Heartwings Love Notes 816 - Simple, Inexpensive Fish recipes: "Hi,
TASHA! Your fish recipes look interesting. We eat a fair amount of
fish. Salmon, Swordfish and Haddock. Marilyn is a Salmon fan. I love
Swordfish. Marilyn isn't a Haddock fan. Thinks it's too blah. Tasha, I
don't like "fishy" fish. Probably doesn't make sense. But there you are.
When Marilyn "dresses up" Salmon with spices, it's nice. Otherwise, I just eat
it. Swordfish doesn't taste 'fishy" to me. Neither does Haddock. We eat
scallops when they're not expensive. We also eat Shrimp. Chicken is a
frequent meal. I like it but I think Marilyn is chickened out. I am no
longer a fan of red meat. That's been a dramatic change as I've grown
older. Red meat (Steak) doesn't sit well in my stomach. We're approaching
hot dawgs season. Yay! I love hot dawgs. And, I don't need to know what's in
them. I do have a recipe that I love. The original is with Mahi Mahi, but I
use tilapia and I add zucchini to the casserole in the bottom under the
fish.
2 lbs Mahi Mahi or other fish.
1 lemon juiced.
1/4 tsp garlic salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 cup mayo
1/4 cup diced onion
Bread crumbs
Preheat oven to 425. Place in 9x13 baking dish. Mix mayo, onions, lemon, and
spices and spread over fish (and veggies). Sprinkle with bread crumbs and
bake for 25 minutes. You can always cut back on mayo if you want less fat.
In fact you can just brush it on and add crumbs if you wish." -M.A.-

taking her sandwich from the coffee table, and slipping back out the door.

without a bridge. At a washed out bridge. On a dirt road in the middle of a
vineyard. In a really BIG cemetery which was supposed to be a motel. I think
we get more stupid by depending on cell phones and GPS's. Garry and I have
made it our business to learn how to get around without one. To know where
the roads go and have a map if we don't already know. Because sometimes --
more often than you imagine -- the GPS is wrong -- and every now and again,
they stop working completely. It's a lot funnier when you aren't several
hundred miles from home without a map." -F.D.-

challenges are to help other folks who are having a hard time helping
themselves. Exercise is such an important part of a daily routine - my
sister is having difficulty walking with no diagnosis of why, except
clinical depression. Why we all stay active is a goal to succeed in
something. I met a 97 year old summer colonist yesterday at the Library
Garden Party. I always felt that she would not talk to me because I was not
in her class. Have I come into that class? Or is she in need of
encouragement since her health is not perfect. She has been a great
supporter of historic preservation in Newport and I plan to accept her
invitation to tea in her beautiful mansion not far from where I lived at
Belcourt Castle. Thank you for your perspectives on the ways we cope with

Your Heartwings about pleasure is so apropos of all of us who have many life

mother the violinist got all her pleasure from her weekly gathering of the
Geriatric trio. She was 91 when she finally put down the violin and said no
more. I knew then that her spirit was ready for the change.
I have not been able to play the organ, because it was in the castle I sold.
I could take lessons from the organist at St. John's where the organ is
similar to the one I was used to. A column on "Musicians live forever" will
be the sequel to this story." -H.T.-

longer. They get to know their names and they'll let other customers know
that they'll wait for these particular employees because of their friendly
attitude. When someone from the South goes north they comment on how
unfriendly folks seem to be. Perhaps it's because those in the North are
afraid to smile." Love and hugs, -B.K.-

rest or take a break and play with my dog when the digging is becoming a bit
much. Working alone allows us to work at our own pace. I think for me, where
I notice the change in activity the most is when we go up into the

heavy cream, and bourbon sauce? And that's when I serve it, after a soup

will wait patiently. I am careful to wrap unused cabbage tightly in plastic
wrap and/or foil so as to keep it free of any air. I add cabbage to any
other greens for texture and nutrition. Wouldn't it be fun to put our toes
under one another's' tables and feast together and CHAT?" I love you! Hugs,

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 762 - A Valentine to Lost Loves: " When my mother
made her transition I was convinced that I would never survive my own life
without her. Then it occurred to me that I could HONOR her memory. So I
invited some neighbor kids to a tea party because my mother LOVED our tea
parties. She also LOVED playing Bingo at her nursing home so I gave the
nursing home where she stayed a roll of quarters in her memory. I once
bought someone a pair of shoes because that's what my mother would have
done. I have photos of my mother here and there about the house and it gives
me great pleasure to see her image and remember special times in our lives.
I will never 'get over losing Mom but I think of her lovingly now, not with
sadness. I think grief was a wonderful teacher." I love connecting with you,

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 758 - Two Recipes for Comfort Food: "The old Fanny
Farmer cookbooks -- I have 3 of them, the earliest from 1934 (I think) and
the most recent from 1950ish -- are great. Simple recipes that work every
time. I don't use a microwave to cook things. I do use it to boil a cup of
water to make tea or reheat something quickly. Most used setting? The "30
second" automatic setting. But to be honest, it's not a matter of principle,
but rather of taste. Microwaved food tastes either boiled and bland... or is
the consistency of an old rubber tire. It's not really a cooking tool. It
has it's uses, but I can't remember the last time I actually cooked anything
in it. Oh, right -- certain packages of frozen vegetables are designed to
cook in a microwave. Otherwise, we have a little convection oven that is a
much better tool for making food :-) -M.A.-

could I change in it to make my life's run not so promptly flying ?! Maybe I
could make more thoughtful decisions on the activities I am spending my time

true. Knowing that we can remain good, and loving and kind in the face of
it, means everything. Just because I can't turn the world on its head all on
my own doesn't mean I can't make a difference. We have to do our best and
let go of the rest. The vibration of localized love and compassion moves

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 729 - Lighting Candles: "Hi Tasha, You and I are
products of the 60s where and love, kindness, hope etc. were real
possibilities inside of us and with our actions. We lived in a nation where
there was a sense of empowerment for change, for making a difference. It was
marginally global. Geography was not part of our vocabulary. Now our 60s
make love not war ends up hurting us. A "refusal to cooperate by 12 sex
slaves" with ideals ends up in their death in vats of acid. Showing
compassion is taken as weakness. Respect for human life individualism and
freedom of choice is looked at as unpatriotic. You and I will live our lives
within our spectrum. However, world cultures are not necessarily part of
this paradigm ad we as a nation are succumbing to the tides of chaos. Time
for another planet for us. Somebody on TV this morning pointed out that
there have been so many of these shootings that we stand in real danger of
accepting this as "normal." We express our outrage, everyone agrees that we
should do something about the guns, and then we move on. Until the next

regrets and having a precious experience in the present moment with my

possible and I came home angry with myself for putting myself in the
situation to be hurt. Also for being so overly optimistic that things could
be different. Coming back to my home and R. was wonderful & knowing my life
is filled with love & creativity that nurtures me and the people around me,
this acknowledgement took a lot of my past regrets away. These thorny

fond memories of following the cook on my Japanese fishing ship into his

think I did pretty well by writing things down as he did them. He was very
helpful, and showed me each ingredient and said the name in Japanese. This
was helpful even though I don't speak Japanese, and the words were not
similar. But it gave me time to look and smell and guess, and I got it
right. I wrote the recipe down and later produced the dish successfully
myself. I look forward to making these cookies some time. Would you say that
they are more of a butter cookie or a sugar cookie?" Lots of love, -A.H.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 707 - Time and time Again: "Time has a way of
doing exactly what you say – goes fast or slow. I think about ‘time’ a lot.
Time well spent, time wasted, imaginary time(s), happy/sad times, The Now
time, time gone-by, and time(s) to come. I sometimes wish that there was no
such thing as ‘time’. However, we humans are always putting labels and
meaning to things which distracts us from spending time wisely. Time can be
a stealer of our mind and often puts us somewhere/sometime we should not be.
Then, we jump back to another time or the now to keep our mind off of it.
However, I would not want to NOT remember the past or hope for the future
because time is just that – the past, the present, and the future. It is the
stuff that hope is made of." -J.R-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 698 - Living With Dying: "HI Tasha, This letter of
yours is especially important to me as two of my friends have been told to
expect to die within a certain amount of time. Richard was told "within
three years" and Miriam was told "within five years." Frankly, I am
flummoxed about the value of being told/not told.... but, I guess that it's
better to be aware and to prepare oneself." Best to you! -M.P.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 698 - Living With Dying: "Thanks for sharing. I
couldn't agree more with these words :). I know this may sound weird but I'm
glad I got to experience being around death at such a young age (my brother)
and then actually watching Grandpa Charlie pass 10 years later when I was
only 14. Not to mention holding my cat while she died of old age in my arms.
Anyways I guess what I'm trying to say is I know these experiences have a
lot to do with why I live my life how I do. To enjoy each moment and cherish
the life I have because one day it will be no longer." Much love, -R.W.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 698 - Living With Dying: "A funny, but true story.
My sister, who has been living with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma for over 10 years
now and been at the brink of death more times than we can remember, was
asked by her minister if she had 15 minutes left what would she do. She told
him that she lives so that there is no unfinished business at the end of
each day, so there would be no frantic calls and that kind of thing. She
also does the things she enjoys doing within the limits all these years of
regular chemo allow, so there is really nothing she would want to do. What
she would do is eat an entire chocolate cake, which she cannot now do
because it makes her sick. She would enjoy every mouthful knowing she would
not have to face all the discomfort eating it would have brought. That is
pretty much how my family rolls!" -S.J.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 686 - Tidiness: "Dear Tasha, Your insightful
Heartwings are always a pleasure to read. This one is specially important as
I have been having contractors redo my windows so my rooms have had to be
reorganized. This is a blessing
so that now I can feel happy about throwing away duplicates and useless
items while being able to find the important things which
are usually buried in a heap of unopened mail. My mother was the epitome of
an organized housekeeper. I unfortunately have the Tinney Family years of
taking on so many projects simultaneously that things of different types
pile up in unsightly and dangerous heaps. My filing cabinets are so stuffed
that a single sheet often won't go into its proper place! Yet do I need to
run down a treacherous cellar stair to retrieve the historical archives I am
often called upon to produce? Writing lists is a good habit - sometimes I do
it, but then forget to put the list where I can remember to take it with me!
So, I enjoyed your recent Heartwings and do hope we can get together again.
What project must I say "No" to? That would be a good subject for you to
address, if you haven't already. When do we just say 'no.'?" Love, -H.T.-

Here, here!!! This is a great piece. And interestingly enough, I just took
out my iron and ironing board last week as I got a summer
dress on sale and it needed pressing. I press once a summer as I still enjoy
the feel of well pressed clothes. I shop at Good will
and find a lot of linen shorts and blouses for very little cost and they are
very cool in the summer, but linen needs pressed as well as
cotton. So I loved this... I don't really have time to iron, but I take a
little time in the evenings for about a week and do it all for the
summer. I actually enjoy ironing and find it very relaxing. Wrinkles on the
skin, so what, I agree with you, let them be as our badges of experience."

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 664 - Spring Mood Swings: "This is nice. I, too,
am enjoying the slow coming of spring. New England has given me a new
appreciation of the seasons. Patience, too. Although I am not in the south,
and here, this spring, we are going thru a literal thaw, I can still sense
that 'the sap's risin'. I like the slowness, reminding me to slow down and
pay attention." - E.L.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 632 - What Does It Mean To Be How Old: "Hello
Tasha, About age: I used to attend a meditation group which was held in a
room of a house that belonged to a 70 something woman. We met every Sunday
night. At one time she said she never thinks of herself as the physical age
her body was, but something else. Personally I never think of how old my
body is. I sometimes have been asked, and told them they have to do the
math, as I don't think about how old I am. But I will tell them my birthdate.
My mother used to say how old she was this way: 'I am as old as my little
finger and a little older than my teeth' When I was growing up, my
grandmother used to live with us, or sometimes in a cottage very near us.
She used to watch us while my parents worked. My perception was that my
grandmother was always old, but my mother never was old until she got
Alzheimer's. I think some people are old because of their attitude, or the
way they behave. I think that some people never get old no matter how long
they live." Peace & Light, -L.P.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes for a joyous life 631 - Perspective Makes the
Difference: "Home is where the heart is. I think having a large home is
great if one has a family... after that it's wasted space and too much
upkeep. Upkeep is only fun if the body permits it otherwise it is a drain on
finances to have someone else do it for you. I wish we had a 'summer home'
to go to growing up, but my parents could not afford it. Great memories for
lucky you! I envied my best friend when I was a kid. They went to Rhode
Island to their summer home each summer and picked blueberries, beach, etc.
I had a pony which come to think of it was 365 days a year vs a week or two
so I think (even today) that I prefer the pony. My best friend wanted a
pony, but got the summer home instead. I think she would have traded it for
a pony, too." Hugs! -N.B.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 605 - Shining
the Light: "My husband always laughs when I say that. I can't see the
"beauty in everything" , ie: a rapist or a serial murderer. However, I do
understand that the brain is wired to predispose human beings' personality
before outside influences come charging in. It is a good discipline to have
positive thinking. As noted, the Chinese has practiced this discipline for
many centuries. It's time for the rest of the planet to catch up to such
wise philosophy. Love -C.P.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 595 - Birthday Thoughts: "Interesting read here. I
think that as people get older, they are the same person and more.
Sometimes, they lose negative aspects of themselves as they become better
people. Isn't it true that anybody can strive to become a better person and
gain positive attributes? They can also learn new things and grow as people?
In other words, I agree with this. Also, as a nineteen year old, I feel like
I've been on this earth for a lot longer than nineteen years, but at the
same time, I also feel young in many ways too. This intrigues me. I feel
that time goes really slow at moments, but I also feel like I'm aging fast."

And I realized that so many of my adult fears were rooted in my mother's

unintentionally frightened me in those ways, I would not have become afraid
of some of these things on my own. And we see that as adults, when we have
the opportunity to either reassure someone gently but realistically, or
compound their fears with drama and speculation. We all really need to be
sensitive to the way others perceive what we are saying, and to the feeling
behind it. Advice should be given with love." -S.W.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 579 -
Perspective: "I'm with you. Everyone looks way younger that they are. I was
concerned that if I were to be a witness at an accident or event, would I be
able to tell the police accurately how old the person was, etc. so I asked
my police friend. He laughed and said," We know your perspective when we get
the witnesses ages and then there is a sliding scale so the older ya are the
younger you think they are, and vice versa if the witness is young the scale
will slide upwards. I do hope that's true." -S.D.-

I think that perspective and influence go together, and the way you see is

seems exact to you." -T.L.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 579 - Perspective: "I have a great perspective
story! When my son was six, he spent the summer with my sister and then met
me at the March on Washington in DC. He, at one point, suggested we walk
from the Washington Monument to the statue of Lincoln. “They are only this
far apart,” he told me, holding his fingers about 3 inches apart. I had to
think a minute and then realized someone must have identified these on his
plane ride to VA. I just said, “OK” and we started plowing out way through
those thousands of people. After a while, with the Memorial appearing no
closer, he asked me what had happened. What a teachable moment to explain
the perspective from far away vs close up!" -J.P.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 576 - Pebbles: "Oh so True! I often sit on the
floor or ground with my feline family and look around to see what they can
see. I get to their eye level and find a spider, a grasshopper, a chipmunk.
When my Sapphire sits in my garden, I go over to make sure she is
comfortable by bending over, pulling the grass or vegetables away from her
and just look down and around so I am at her level. With four cats, they
sure keep me peaking at things throughout the day. Then there is the other
end of the spectrum. Looking up. My wild birds and trees always get my
attention and I sometimes strain to look beyond my human vision to see what
they see in the sky. Many people are too busy to check their peripheral
vision to notice what God has given to us for free. Yes, we will look and
admire our freshly cut grass or the full moon and stars. But not many of us
will look that little extra beyond to see true splendor and miracles at that
lower or upper level." Love -C.A.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 554 - Sharing
Is Caring: "I really enjoy lighthearted things Tasha. With my ADD life
can be crushingly depressing from time to time. I find that things that take
one's mind off it all really helps one's attitude. Also focusing on what I
have to be thankful for really helps to change my attitude towards life.
Thanks for the uplift! :)" Have a great day! -M.C-

Lights of Christmas: "Yes, driving around and looking at all the Christmas
lights was a tradition at our house during my growing up years. The
Minneapolis paper would have a contest of decorated homes and then would
list the winners and all the rest in the paper. My folks would sit down and
plan out our route to see as many as possible. Then we'd come home to hot
cocoa and popcorn. It was a wonderful time. Enjoy your holiday season and
all the 'pitty lights'. It does have a way of lifting the spirits." Love,

money is easiest but think of the effort of the buying, deciding and
wrapping the gift. This only comes with someone really turned on by
Christmas. Like you say passing it on is good and I did know someone once
who actually gave a gift to someone and forgot to take out the original card
that came with the gift. So be it. It is Christmas after all. Have a Blessed

something I have noticed more recently that life is so much happier when you
can detach from the outcome of expectations if it doesn't go how you had

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 542 - The

to another frequency and are always glad to visit us and anxious to know we
miss them and yet not hold them back from their journey. Departed loved ones
are near us often and sometimes I sit and without even trying go into a
trance. That is when I know someone dear is near. Hurray! For Halloween and
for a time we can celebrate being with them. To me there are no barriers in
this world if we just understood more about frequencies and energy because
it is what we are minus our physical bodies. Or something of that nature.
Nice article to get us thinking." HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! -C.K-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 542 - The Honored Dead: "Hi, Tasha!, A very short
take on life after death because I'm still a little groggy after my drive
home from Long Island yesterday. My weekend visit with my two Brothers was
shortened because of "Sandy". I left here Saturday morning and returned by
yesterday evening. Not good for body or soul. But the brief time spent at
the old family home was very nice. There are dozens of family pictures
everywhere with loved ones -- almost all who are gone. But as I chatted with
my Brothers and gazed at the pictures, I thought of those relatives as when
they were alive and all the good times we spent together. Most of my
memories were from childhood and perhaps idealized but so what. I thought of
those loved ones during the horrific drive home. It made the drive a little
less frustrating." Hugs! -G.F.-

Re: Love Notes 538 - Positively

becoming aware of all that I say. Sometimes it is hard in the midst of
seeing people you love have problems and have to rise above that you don't
take on their karma. Certainly I need to go through a lot of things I have
collected and now I try to see who in my life has mentioned something they
like and if I am not using it I give it willingly. An old friend of mine and
myself met one day and I saw she had a lapis lazuli ring. Then I remembered
a beautiful pair of ear rings I had in my drawer that would match her ring
and the next time we me I gave them to her. She immediately put them on and
it was such a nice feeling to know the ear rings were finally being used by
someone who greatly appreciated them." -C.P.-

Re: Love Notes 538 - Positively Thinking: "My Dear Tasha (whom I love), All
of my ADD books say that if you have a large job that is intimidating or
daunting, break up the task into manageable segments. I 'm guessing that
many small bits don't seem so overwhelming. I break it up into 20 minutes to
an hour's worth of work. I get boxes and label and sort them into groups.
For instance office supplies, household items, craft items, candles, books,
towels, decorations, etc.- whatever. I work one hour or more if I want. Each
item goes in it's own box. You always can open to see how much is in each
box and seal them when they are full. You can go by what is in the front of
the storage unit and work towards the back, from one end to another, by the
square yard measure, or however you'd like to break it up. As you go along
you can have boxes for what you don't want or need, want to give away, Yard
Sale, throw away, use, or want to store for future use. Line them up around
you with the labels facing you. Then there is a place for everything. You
can label as you go. It is easier when things are grouped into categories.
And not so overwhelming. Slow and steady wins the race, and it will
eventually get done. Don't let it buffalo you. It can be done. :D Thinking
encouraging thoughts for you. You CAN do it, in your own time, or in your
own way." Love to you and Stephen, -M.C.-

eating your food. I always remember my old boss saying he had a lot of "ain't
that ashamed fat"--meaning he felt he had to eat leftovers. As for me I have
taken to just eating my food when I eat. No reading - no distracting -- only
enjoying each chew and sitting up straight and allowing myself to have a
relationship with the food I eat. It is hard sometimes as I used to read the
newspaper while I ate, but no more." -C.D.-

food but am much more careful".

belong. Things are done to the best of our ability in the time allotted.
That leads to a feeling of satisfaction and inner peace. Preparedness is the

satisfied that I have honored my guests in the best way I was able to. Then

see w/the Boston pops concert & folks come from miles & states beyond that
it may be the most 'spiritual' of celebrations/holidays - in listening to

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 524 - The Lazy Days of Summer: "Nicely said, and a
good reminder. Like you, I have little tolerance for high heat and humidity
and here in VT, summer means a pretty good sized group of insects interested
in tearing your flesh, or drinking your blood. We've deer flies, which fly
directly at you at high speed, and bite you in a painful gulp. They're
incredibly aggressive and vicious. There are black flies, with a smaller
bite, but more of them. They get through the screens, and in through the
quickly opened and shut doors, finding you as you sleep. Likewise, the no
see ums. And of course, Mosquitoes Vermontus. I always wish for the late
summer and fall, when the insects' short life has gone (all but a few, and
the bees and wasps angrily flying around as winter approaches). Early
October is divine, there's no arguing it. But truly? I'm good from late
August until about February. As winter comes on, I like the clean, pollen
and insect free, crisp bite of the winter air. It all seems so pure and
beautiful. Still, when all is said and done, it's truly lovely to walk
outside without having to take the time to add multiple layers of clothing,
or to reverse the process when returning indoors." Thanks for the reminder.

Notes 523 - Gifts My Father Gave Me: "I remember Dad's return from World War
Two. He seemed ten feet tall in his Army dress uniform. The war left
invisible scars on Dad never discussed until a short time before his death
in '02. Dad rarely cried. He did once when putting me on the train to head
south for basic training in '59. He showed pride when I returned home on my
first leave in uniform. Dad internalized most of his emotions but was a very
proud man. After his death, we found several WW2 medals in an envelope
hidden away for decades. They were part of the horrors seen but never fully
discussed. Eulogizing my Dad, I talked about the sum of a man's life being
his legacy. So, here's to Dad on his day. -G.L.-

tree outside the dining room window was covered with white blossoms when I
arrived home from school. I was thrilled; so gorgeous so I got the washtub
and filled it with the garden hose and proceeded to climb the tree and pick
every single flower and floated them in my "lily pond". When he came home
from work he was aghast; no cherry pies or cherry olives coming up. He was
as shocked as I was when he paddled me swiftly but lightly. And when I was
fifteen my mother slapped my mouth once and oh, did I deserve it! I never
said that again. Normally they'd just give me the look and I'd know better."

Re Heartwings Love Notes 517 - Belonging: "Tasha... this is so on-target
with most of humanity.
The
hive. What a great confirmation! We really are a herd/pack species so tend
to form groups and categories for placement so to speak. It is in our
nature. Organizations fill those needs somewhat on a social level. The
hierarchy is probably: Universe, World, Country, State, County, City, Town,
neighborhood, home, room. I guess it helps prevent chaos and finds its order
in things. In the end we are One and when we go to the great beyond,
boundaries are abolished....yay! The UN is an example of earthly
organization to unite the above, but it has gone amuck sadly so." -J.R.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 516 - Habits: "How true, Tasha, I too, had a food
“enlightenment” last October when my doctor said I had Type 2 diabetes. My
A1c was at 7.5 (normal A1c is 5.5-5.9). I read all I could online and in
books. I found that the hospital diabetic dieticians were clueless as to how
to eat for “recovery”. They only tell you how to maintain or keep control of
diabetes. If one followed their advice it would eventually lead to severe
complications and the use of insulin.
What did I find out? That diabetes is reversible, curable, and it is easy to
do. IT IS NOT sugar that is the culprit, albeit sugar also is not a health
food. IT IS the “heart healthy grains” that are being pushed upon America
causing weight gain and sugar problems. Why? Because carbohydrates turn to
sugar quickly and cause high blood glucose and weight gain. I found that
even real oats for oatmeal made my sugar rise to OVER 220! So I began eating
no to low carb. What does that mean? NO WHEAT, OATS, BARLEY, etc etc NO
Pasta, no rice, no bread, no crackers, no cereals and even no potatoes or
starchy high glycemic veggies. I have been following in essence the Paleo
diet with a few tweaks and in 7 months have lowered my A1c to 6.0! Lost 15
pounds, still wish that were more. And cholesterol went from 267 to 198.
Still working on that. Thought you would find this interesting," Love -K.L.-
PS: Hope that darn gall bladder gets better or goes away!

phone had fallen out of her purse last night and was in the car as well. She
looked on it, and she found the care center where her mother is had called
to tell her her mom had fallen. So good thing she had her phone. Nothing
happens by chance. Yes, let's do bring on those clowns." -S.D.-

How Can I Help? The listening ear is what I have had a hard time teaching

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 503 - Skating: "Oh I love this Tasha, we are so
much alike sometimes. There use to be a pond behind my grandma's house, (I
spent a lot of my years with her) and I would be given second hand skates,
and OH how I wanted to skate and I would go over by myself and try and try.
During school outings my ankles would not hold up either and I would be on
the side watching others. I always dreamed of being on the ice in the Ice
Capades..... was not to be and have not seen skates even though my son
and ex husband could skate like the wind, since he was a kid..... your right
when we learn our limits..... hard to take sometimes." Hope you are keeping

And I really hated it. I knew I was supposed to like it and want to master
it, but my ankles always hurt and I was always falling and getting ice up my
butt. So when finally, I gave myself permission to stop trying, it felt
sooooo good! -M.K.- Jan 30, 2012 12:20 PM

we walked about 1-2 miles one way.. Trees on that day were marked down to
move fast... :-) We celebrated Christmas eve with 12 cold dishes <herring in
tomato, herring in sour cream, beet salad, etc etc> and at 11 pm we'd open
gifts.. Then Christmas midnight mass... again walk one mile each way... can
remember numerous times it started snowing coming back from midnight mass...
We took down the tree after January 7th... following Eastern Rites <folks
from Lithuania> I am still amazed I sat through a long mass at such a young
age! Thanks for bringing back the memories.. blessings -R.D.-

flight of steps to walk up. When she finished I let her know how nicely she
handled that and complimented her on how carefully she placed the fruits and

It is always rewarding when I do, though, of course. Life seems to have been
teaching me about a certain editing process in this last year-cleaning out
the apartments of people who move away (working for the property owners of
our house here in FL). It has been a lot of physical and psychological work-
sorting out and clearing 'stuff' that others just leave behind. I think I've

this to be my favorite. I must make a confession: This Heartwings that you
wrote had my mind soaring. The pictures were so vivid! I am so happy for you
that your son gave you joy in such a special way only you would know. I can
not express enough how nature is a gift given from God. As you stated, no
matter what tragedy is upon each human, nature gives to us a glint of
happiness. For some, maybe a second, but it brings a smile to their faces. I
do not know what I would do without the beauty that surrounds us. I have
been in dark times and the gift of nature has pulled me out. For this I will
always remain grateful." Love Always, -L.P.- April 25, 2011

What Can I Do?: "Oh Tasha, as a nurse I can relate to the absurdity of this
and see this all the time. When something minor is heralded as major and the
simple overlooked. And then there is the complicated which is pasted off for
'just in your head'. I cant wait to retire and do the work I was meant for!
sigh... 2 more years?" -S.L.- April 22, 2011 9:11 AM
Re: Heartwings Love Notes 462 - What Can I Do?: "Tasha. Many time as I'm
reading one of your Heartwings I think about what a blessing it is for you
to share them with me and others. It's love going out from you via e mail.
It comes into our homes and blesses us, and provokes us to thought. Anything
that gets my old lazy brain to shift gears is a "good thing". And it's good
to hear more about you through Stephen. It's a sunny and windy day,
dynamic and yet comforting. It seems as if God is vacuuming up there, moving
the clouds to clean underneath. :) It's a happy day for me, and I hope it is
for you as well. I had Cheesecake Factory cheesecake for breakfast and a
cold bottle of water for a beverage. It started my day off sunny- from the
inside out. :) God is so good. He's blessed me with cherry cheesecake and
you! Who would want more? Thank you for being there. You are a delight. Just
ask Stephen if you need confirmation. We are witnesses. :)" Love and hugs,

Probiotics and they have helped me immensely. When I went to the Dr's and I
couldn't walk I had x-rays and he put me on a Aleeve and told me to rest. I
asked him to send me to Physical Therapy which I went to twice a week for
two months. Did energy healing on the parts of my hip I could. I stopped
taking Aleeve and now I am walking much better and climbing stairs. I talk

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 453 -
Being Your Own Valentine: "I went to a Catholic school from grades K through
6. That one line reminds my how tormented I was because I was too loud, a
busy body and a Miss know-it-all. I remember those horrible valentines that
were printed out by a nasty bubble gum company that the boys found so
popular. I received cards like: If your were the only girl in the world and
I were the only boy---- I'd hang myself. The boys thought that was funny. I
found it hurtful. I even received some from the girls. In todays world, I
would have been put on Ritalin or some other popular drug to "quiet me
down". I was a straight A student up unto grade 5 when I had a nun who
absolutely despised me because I was too smart. After that, I hated school
and only passed with B's and C's. My father wouldn't let me change teachers
because he said that I will meet people like her all my life and I had to
deal with it. It always left me with a sour taste in my heart. As I brought
up my 2 sons and my grandson, I told them to never say a girl was ugly or
stupid, etc. I told them, "That girl could become someone's mother
(grandmother) some day, like I am to you." I think they got the message. As
for Valentine cards, I remember cutting up note book paper with great pride,
shaping it into a heart and leaving it on my mother's pillow, saying I love
you. I sometimes get my husband a real tear jerker, then other years a
hearty chuckle card. I NEVER sent a hurtful card, ever, no matter who I
disliked. St. Valentine said-- to you I give my heart (in the name of God).
So to you my dear friend, who is now VERY popular--- I give to you my
heart." Love -Carol Ann- February 7 2011 7:40:37 P.M

Finding Out The Hard Way: "Yes, they do kick ! My father made sure I knew
how to shoot a gun. Every weekend we went out target practicing.....in the
back of a cops house no less. You think a hand gun has a kick.....try a
double barrel shot gun !!! I do not recommend both barrels. One should be
enough to knock you on your butt and dislocate your shoulder ! There is how
ever a little hand gun known as the ladies gun. I think it is a Keuger. Very
small, fits in the palm of your hand. Called ladies gun because it is really
easy to shoot with no kick. Surprised your instructor did not let the ladies
use one. -D.D.- June 7, 2010 11:25 PM
Re: Heartwings Love Notes 418 - Finding Out The Hard Way: "Good Morning and
Blessings on you Tasha for trying! I never imagined myself being involved
with firearms either until I went for a safety course on the handling of
Black Powder and firearms that use it. One of the lady’s who was there
at the course and is experienced, took me under her wing and felt that I
should at least try once to fire this little gun that she hand. It’s a
replica of a Queen Anne flintlock. She showed me how to load and fire it.
We were only going to be firing off blank paper cartridges. No bullets. I
was scared to death! That was a little over a year ago. I was stunned
to find that despite being fearful, the sound and the smoke was a bit of a
thrill. Not unlike being on a roller coaster. Little did I
realize that I was hooked. I ended up taking an official course
offered by the Lawrence Rod and Gun Club on Black Powder Safety and firearms
handling. Several of the crew members of the Black Rose II,
www.blackrose2.com attended as well. It was fun and enlightening in
many ways. I now own 2 flintlocks. They are working replicas of early
fire arms and I’ve come to be a lot more comfortable around them. At current
I’ve yet to fire a bullet, but several of us are looking into practicing at
a firing range. I never imagined this happening at all! As these are
single shot firearms, I think that’s the part that makes me most
comfortable. I don’t think I’d be very comfortable with anything like
you were shooting, where there are multiple bullets. I think that
would scare me silly. Kudos to you for trying! You are such a brave woman!"

about being unaware of how different things may seem until we try them!
I am very comfortable now with shooting, and have always had a great respect
for firearms, and the proper way to use them. I am glad that you had this
experience.
I also have loved the stories of your becoming used to your new smaller home
quarters, and how much less you are able to get along with. We too are
talking about downsizing. I know it will be a task when we decide to do it,

Loving God: "OH Tasha, this rings so true and I did so much searching for

only way we can accept the beauty and the ugliness of this strange world we
are in for a short time. My "altar" is still inside as I talk to God and I
am given visions and answers to my questions. But I am always still
questioning, talking or listening! I truly believe it takes a much deeper
love than our human feelings in order to see the light in those or that
which looks so dark. I carry a "lantern of light" as i go into the darkness
and healing with many people. And it is rarely by knowledge but by faith and
love that people my heart and hands touch heal a part of their lives. You
give the love thru your experiences, words and they help heal! Bless you! I

January 26, 2010 10:39 PM
Re: Heartwings Love Notes 399 - The Flower Clock: "I believe our ancestors
did not need time pieces as we do today because they had one already. The
sun, you woke at dawn, and went to bed at dusk. You did not need a clock for
one simple reason. You did your task for as long as it took to do it right
and well. They knew when something was taking too long, simply because it
had been done for years the same way. Tradition was a time piece. And it was
handed down. Our life's would be so much better with out clocks. it only
makes us limit ourselves. Another restraint. Something to keep time of how
and who can be the fastest in this thing we call a rat race. Time pieces
have pretty faces, but it makes our faces ugly with wrinkles and frowns. We
put time on everything but the one most important thing....ourselves. Like
rabbits, we run around saying we're late, we're late. And when death comes,
we say its too early. Ecclesiastes says it best," there is a time for
everything." And try as we may, whether we turn back a clock, or push it
forward, time ticks true. Clocks tick like a heart beat. But, we no longer
hear the heart beat of the clock or that of our own heart." God bless, love,

keep track of it themselves. I love being free from time, being unaware what
the actual time is. So much of our lives are timed or scheduled, it's nice
to ignore that when I'm home and just be. I eat when I'm hungry, I go to the
bathroom when I need to, I walk the dog when she tells me she is ready, the

Wrapped in Love: "I always enjoyed folding diapers for the same reason. I
found it to be meditative. As I folded each white, cotton rectangle, I would
think about what a gift it was for my baby to be wearing cloth diapers, and
also of the gift I was giving the environment by not using disposables.
Folding the diapers gave me the opportunity to appreciate the love inherent
in this simple act of caring for my family and mother earth. I feel sorry
for people who don't get to experience that." -DW-

Dreams: "Hello Tasha, I thank you so much for this and thank you for your
constant friendship." -Barbara- September 14, 2009 10:21 PM
Re: Heartwings Love Notes 380 - Dreams: "YOU ARE ONE NEAT, NEAT LADY, MISS
TASHA! I'm so glad I stumbled on your Heartwings years ago, and wrote
to you. You have been an unseen counselor to me through the years as your
healing, helpful, thought-provoking words put patches on many bruised and
sore spots of my ego. Sometimes your stories just bring up comforting times
in my own past, and remind me of how loved I was as a child. Yesterday was
the 14th anniversary of my mother's death, and I still get teary-eyed at
times. I'm just feeling a bit down today.
I, too, used to have dreams of writing, when I wrote poetry in high school,
MANY years ago, and edited our literary magazine. I never pursued it, but
through some quirk of fate, I find myself writing a weekly newsletter now
for some 400 people. I run our weekly summer farmers' market here in our
city, through my job as the Visitors Center Coordinator, and the newsletter
is all about the doings at the market. I also find myself now losing this
job I've had for 8 years, (through someone else's political agenda causing
the Visitors Center to close soon due to withholding our funding), and I
question whether I have any skills useful in finding another job. Today's
Heartwings from you helped me to realize that I guess I did accomplish a
long ago dream of writing, even if small and temporary. Thank you, God bless
you." -Dottie- September 14, 2009 6:20 PM
Re: Heartwings Love Notes 380 - Dreams: "Dear Tasha, I always enjoy your
Heartwings, but this one especially spoke to me. How nice to see your dreams
comes true! Not only for you, but for me to read about it! I am happy for
you! And your words are inspirational, as always. I have had many dreams in
my lifetime as well, and as I grow older I do see some of them turn to
reality. My first dream was to be a nun! But when I was 8 years old I can
recall coming to a life changing conclusion. I wanted children. So, I
decided I would get have to get married, and the dream of becoming a nun
faded away. My husband Dan is the best thing that ever happened to me!
I also wanted to become writer, like you, but I have never been published.
Although I did write a novel. I have several rejection slips. Oh well. I
have several more stories inside me that I need to put down on paper.
Although publication may not be in my future, it feels good for me to write
and get the story outside of me because they do kick and scream to come out.
I do love Steve McDonald's music, and have loved it since the first time I
heard it. Sometimes I am amazed that I am able to work with him, even if I
have never met him face to face, I feel we have special friendship. It is
indeed dream come true for me to run his fan club, and distribute his music.
Thanks for always sharing your Heartwings with me" Love, -Jackie-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 365 -
Getting Out Of My Own Way: "Tasha, I’d like to offer an observation. I’ve
noticed that you’ve often returned to the theme of your propensity to make
mistakes, and have mentioned the ridicule you received from it as a child. I
think you may have a misperception about yourself on this one. I’ve known
you for a number of years now, and honestly, I can’t think of a mistake
you’ve made since I’ve known you. I don’t see you as mistake-prone at all.
Instead, I’ve observed that you thoughtfully assess a situation and
generally respond with a well-reasoned action. I don’t think of you as a
person who makes stupid mistakes, but rather as a person who behaves in a
careful and attentive manner." Love, -Jen- June 1, 2009 8:54

Love Notes 364 - Memorial Day Memories: "Thank you for rekindling so many
memories. My maternal Grandpa who used to tell me colorful stories about his
days as a World War One Sailor in the Danish Navy. My Dad, a decorated Army
Sgt. who kept horrific stories about World War Two experiences to himself
until shortly before he died. Now I share memories with old Marine Corps
buddies. Generation after generation, we persevere." -Garry A.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 364 - Memorial Day Memories: "Memorial Day was
always special in my childhood, too. We decorated graves of loved ones with
whatever flowers were in bloom then from our gardens. After I was married
and moved from the plains of Nebr. and lived on one coast or the other, I
could not see enriching the floriest so instead I chose to make donations to
my favorite charities in their names to enrich the lives of those in need. I
can't see making morticians richer either nor florists at that time. I
preferred when it was celebrated for the right reasons on that day rather
than the three day week-ends we're guaranteed now." -Sheila D.-

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 364 - Memorial Day Memories: "How very lovely. As
a child, my parents would bring me downtown to see the parade on Memorial
Day. I never could understand why we celebrated "war" and the murder/killing
of so many innocent lives. The solders would march by, then the float of the
four solders who held the American Flag back up that mound on an island with
a name that I never could understand. We went to the same parade year after
year until I was a teen. Suddenly, I was married, having children of my own
and did not keep up the tradition of honoring war. I understand Memorial Day
represents all who died for their country. But if I were German or Jewish or
Japanese or French or Italian, I would be honoring that particular country
and those who died protecting their country and/ or religious beliefs. We
are all human beings. We all make choices. It's sad when any human being
dies. We are sent here to learn our lessons. Then we die and review those
experiences, for better or for worse. Memorial Day means to celebrate the
lives of all the human beings who truly wanted peace for their planet and
families, no matter where on Earth they lived and died. I celebrate human
life--for better or for worse." Love -Carol Ann T.- May 24,

Re: Heartwings
Love notes 358 - The Web of Memory: "Such lovely memories. My dad always
bought my mom a gardenia for Easter and a small flower for me and we
lovingly straight-pinned them onto our Easter coats. When my sister was born
(I was 8 years, 8 months old) my father stopped buying the flowers as now he
had to buy an extra flower, and he just couldn't afford the extra flower
with an extra mouth to feed. He occasionally would buy my mom a flower for
her coat. After Dad died, my mom approached her 70th birthday. My sister and
I gave her a surprise birthday party and I ordered a gardenia corsage. I
asked my oldest cousin, who was dying with cancer, to do the honors and pin
it on my mother. Mom whispered to me "I know why you bought the gardenia".
That summer, mom and my oldest cousin went to an Alaskan cruise together and
8 weeks later, my cousin passed away. Traditions are wonderful memories, and
now my Mom has dad and her favorite niece to remember when I buy her another
gardenia. Love -Carol Ann- April 13, 2009 11:17 AM

time for this; we waited for over a year'. She looked stunned and said
quietly, 'I should try that'. A few days later my husband and most of the
employees were laid off. Fortunately our frugal nature will carry us through

Thanks for reminding me. We took my Grandchild to a party at Amvets and
Santa had the same message when leaving . We fall into how we were bought up
good and bad and spoiled. I will have to try harder to break the old ways of
thinking. I thought I loved without conditions but apparently I don't.
If only we could see all the time through the eyes of a child. Cory was so
excited about the party he stood their watching all others opening packages
than his name was called and got to sit on Santa lap and have a picture
taken. After getting down he didn't under stand the helper had his gift and
Cory started to walk away. The young boy (Santa's helper) bent down to Cory
and passed him the gift. He than came back to the table where we all were
sitting at, was told how to open and see what he was given. He pulled the
paper off looking with surprised big eyes at a toy. Hopefully he will learn
in time the joy of giving as well as receiving from the heart." Hugs

very glad I know you. Even though we don't talk often, you are in my thoughts
regularly. My mother was Scorpio and I didn't get along with her so believed
Scorpio wasn't good for me. Other Scorpios in my life have often confirmed my
thought, but you don't fit that scenario, thankfully. Perhaps because you

hot many pies cooling on the window panes every summer welcoming our visit to
the 100 acre farm along the wide river in Bow, N.H. My grandmom had a large
garden until I was about 10. She passed when I was a teenage I think. Anyways,
my aunt Aggie and my Nana were always very sweet. They lived together with my
grandfather for as long as I knew them. Your story is a good reminder for me
to enjoy my blue willow china set with my grandchildren instead of leaving

memories of my paternal grandmother and her home. She loved birds and designed
her tiny backyard to entice them. She could mimic their calls. She always made
us drink Apricot Nectar with breakfast. She saved rose petals. She sang funny
songs to make us laugh. She loved hiking and camping. We'd listen to Spike
Jones 45's in her attic. She called me "Amy Angel". Awwww.....!! I sure do
miss her. She was always thrilled when all 7 of us would show up after a long,
long drive. She was there when I was born! Beautiful woman. Thanks for you
lovely story." Love, -Amy-

off until today as we have had prospective buyers looking at our property to
buy, so I have cleaning all week. We are hopefully moving back over nearer the
coast for a number of reasons.. Anyway, I really smiled when I did read this
just now, as yesterday I was cleaning places that had not been cleaned for a
long while, and grumbling a bit to myself....Then suddenly I stopped and had
my big moment of what you refer to as an "attitude of gratitude"...noting to
myself how fortunate I am to have places to clean (like window ledges full of
bugs and pollen between the windows and the screens.)....AND to have the
ability to clean them still!! ... You have a marvelous way of conveying your

Re: Heartwings Love Notes 313 - Little By Little We Learn: "Hi Tasha, I had
the same cloth bag struggle! One day I saw "Envirosax" on an internet site and
ordered them. They're parachute fabric and five come in a tiny little pouch
that fit in my purse. The bags are quite large and hold at least the
equivalent of two plastic bags. I've carried them for almost two years and
have had so many people ask "where did you get those?" because of their bright
graphic prints. Now I use my cloth bags for library books and to hold all the
random items that are in my car. My son is going to get a set for his July
birthday. On the day after Thanksgiving my daughter-in-law, her mom and I went
out to the stores (crazy time!) and Jolene was charmed by the bags I kept
pulling out of my purse - "what are you, a magician?" she laughed! And you're
right - it's good to have a few plastic bags for other uses. Unfortunately I'm
seeing way too many people without cloth bags in the stores. I'm not sure
people are as committed to environmentalism as we were in the 'olden days'.
We're having a gorgeous spring. Hope you are, too." Love, -Candi-
