Treasures 2005_30


The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched – they must be felt with the heart.


— Helen Keller

Treasures are positive things that strike my fancy, that make me feel happy or thankful or interested. Treasures are memories encapsulated in just a few words.
These are my Treasures for the past week.

  • An owl flew over the car on our way home from dinner last night (good thing he wasn't any closer!)

  • Mousies (probably woodrats) at the feeder after dark. Squeaks, rustles, and the patter or many feet. There were at least 6.

  • The full moon over the sun room

  • E-chats with friends

  • Playing pattacake with Raven

  • Squirrel asleep with his head on my pillow.

  • Children blowing soap bubbles from the back seat of a car at the stoplight – invoking thoughts of a "stop smoking" commercial I've seen

  • a chocolate milkshake
