“And if I name life, I must risk my laughter, my dancing, my tears, myself~in giving a name to this experience called living.”

Photographed in Olive, New York USA, January 31, 2012 in a quiet place where I could celebrate my life once more with the all the natural elements of the universe and my dogs.
Today there was much reason to celebrate. After a few long weeks of worry of suspected liver cancer, final test results determined I was cancer free! I have been granted another day of living, and am forever grateful.
This is dedicated to the many others who have or will travel this terrifying road. Thank you all for bearing with my not so great artwork over the past weeks, and my hit and miss comments…I did the best I could throughout this time.

“Sing like no one’s listening,
love like you’ve never been hurt,
dance like nobody’s watching,
and live like its heaven on earth.”

wow.. look at the fabulous tree reflections yo got here sis, fantastic capture.. hope you did not try to walk on that ice,, lol!!! I know you know better, but I worry about Rosie… after all she has my middle namesake, yes it is MarieRose.. love you,, hope you felt so renewed after visiting here, I sure know how that feels.. ♥
I surely did, it was wonderful and no we stayed off the ice, I had to leash her here to keep her out! And Tucker, all he cared for was sharing my sandwich for lunch so he would not have dreamed of straying to the ice! Rosie got me today though at the old canal…in she went as cold as it was here…she now stinks again! My hands are raw from cleaning her!
