This i...I love Kahlil Gibran's writings, Julie. This is a particularly beautiful quote. I've been so busy of late, that I'm afraid to say I've missed a few of your posts and was completely unaware of the recent passing of your Mother. She sounds like such an incredibly inspiring, amazing woman and I can only imagine how painful this is for you. I don't recall ever having visited her blog and, if I had, I definitely had no idea she was your Mother. From the comments here, she was obviously well-loved by her Followers and will be sorely missed. My loving thoughts are with you and your family as you take the time to adjust to her absence.Desireehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01069419364783245762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2463633428173967234.post-38195551326005906312011-10-16T21:09:06.504-05:002011-10-16T21:09:06.504-05:00I'm so sorry.

You must be reeling, and rightly so. Bernie seemed like a force to be reckoned with, and obviously a lot of who she was rubbed off on you, especially the love of water and words. <br /><br />I remember when she wanted to get the golden retriever, and you wished you wouldn't - but she did anyway, and what love and joy she showed for it during her posts. What will happen to her beloved dog?<br /><br />Thinking of you and hoping family and memories will help ease your loss.Wander to the Waysidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14056931538024315352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2463633428173967234.post-9673579037927326702011-10-04T07:11:18.918-05:002011-10-04T07:11:18.918-05:00I'm so sorry to hear that you lost your mom......I'm so sorry to hear that you lost your mom...take care and we'll be thinking of you...rjerdeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12453912819445395042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2463633428173967234.post-88872334736501364082011-10-04T06:49:54.502-05:002011-10-04T06:49:54.502-05:00So sorry, Julie.
