If you love a love story, this is one you won’t want to miss. An authentic weaving of the story of a simple man’s love for a lady with details drawn from the lives and loves of four generations.

Lucky for me, I read this when I was about 15 years old, and never forgot it. I try to live my life like this as much as I can. I’m sure many of you have heard this before, but it is well worth repeating.

To be a child, once again.

Flowers are always nice.

Traditional 5/7/5 haiku.

I love springtime.

My grandmother took naps in the afternoon. As long as I did not disturb the sacred nap, and I turned up at chore time, I could get away with just about anything.

Random poem.

True love never dies. Even if the people’s minds give them doubt, the heart still knows. The heart always knows. I don’t know what this song is called or who sings it but listen to your heart when he’s calling for you. Listen to your heart, there’s nothing else you can do. I don’t know where your going and I don’t know why, but listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye.

An expression of the light that lives and grows inside.
