Meet Rose

My first blog!  This site is dedicated to several Roses.

This is my mother, Rose, at about three years of age.  She stayed with us for only a short time- 53 years of sweetness, guidance and uncomplicated love and not a day goes by that I do not miss her.  Forty years of not having her ...

This passage written by Pat B. Allen in her book Art Is A Spiritual Path is a treasure.

"When you do not have a mother there are certain things you do not know.  Like what is enough?  Or when to rest; when to be quiet.  Then again there are other things that come to you as gifts through that space, that emptiness left by her absence.  You will always carry the imprint of her fears, her unrealized dreams the unfinished and half begun possibilities.  Remember that her spirit is always near with wise guidance ask! Ask!  Then be very still out of the void will come what seem to be demons stay. .. Stay...allow your eyes to soften to soften, soften see that they are angels and that everything is revealed."
