Prayer knows no geographical bounds. Wherever we are we can pray, knowing that good will flow from our intentions.

Dearest Sue,
Thank you for this beautiful and remarkably wistful post, filled with love and compassion for the Japanese people. Thank you for mentioning ShelterBox as well. I am moved beyond words by your heart-opening message. I pray for their lives and their future, especially the future of children.
Much Love,
Noelle

The whole world is praying, we all unite in the care for each other. Japan helped NZ after the earthquake in Christchurch last month and now a NZ team of experts is helping Japan. We all reach out to each other.
Wonderful art and words.

I think we will all be absorbed with the tragedy of Japan for a long time to come. I pray the third hit of this triple tragedy - the nuclear power plants - will refocus the world on the need for better energy sources.

Very touching and the world extends a helping hand; we know somewhere deep within, that the land of the Rising Sun will rise up like a phoenix to shine once again!!

I love that a haiku can be so simple and yet so poignant -exactly as you have captured here. Beautifully juxtaposed with stunning and impressive images -are they your own beautiful creations? Thank you x

the beauty of love and compassion shines bright in your beautiful ku.... love the dimensional space within each art work, as if our prayers have reached across the short space and embraced their tragedy holding up those who cannot stand... thank you...

Dear Sue~ These paintings are so beautiful and meaningful! I love the image you evoked of our hearts reaching around the globe to Japan to touch the rising sun. Perfect, spare, moving Haiku.

A haiku seems most appropriate at this time as a vessel for our thoughts.
Beautifully illustrated by you.
A post both stirring and soothing at the same time.

Gathering Myself

Today I'm taking a little me time, doing what I love to do, just digital doodling. My mind has been on dolls, motherhood, Mary and the coming season.

I'm sending back my thanks via Virgin a Day Recuerda mi Corazon I once had a sweet little doll, dears, The prettiest doll in the world; Her cheeks were so red and so white; dears, And her hair was so charmingly curled. But I lost my poor little doll, dears, As I played in the heath one day; And I cried for her more than a week, dears; But I never could find where she lay. I found my poor

Navigating Home

Well here I am again!  Wonder of wonders that I am even showing up at all in this little blog wilderness having uprooted my faithful old friend Finding my Bliss by way of messing up the template!  The one who safely sailed me through Bloglandia for all of those years was interfered with in an abrupt manner (see previous post).   I know it may sound silly but I feel like I am grieving for what was my sanctuary and residence, I am feeling kind of lost with nothing familiar to cling to, but alas I do have one place that is very much like home and so there I will share a little haiku with my friends... By way of haiku navigate a place called home the 'heart' gathering... On the subject of home and the insecurity of having no solid ground to tread on, that's where I am finding myself at present as I'm in the throws of purchasing a new home and going through a very sticky patch with the legalities of it all.  It's going at a snail's pace and I'
