Cancer and little kids

Greeting Card Universe, the world's largest Greeting Card store, will donate 100% of the profits from the sales of specific greeting card collections to "Kiss the Toad" creations. "Kiss the Toad" helps and supports children undergoing medical treatments against cancer. I find that awesome! Those children need all the support they can get, they are so brave! I have included the link below: please have a look. http://news.yahoo.com/greetingcarduniverse-com-supports-childhood-cancer-awareness-month-donations-130126287.html Here is a video; http://www.nbcbayarea.com/video/#!/news/local/The-Cape-Making-Crusader/165674336

Life and tightropes

I don't know what your life is like, but I guess that it's like mine - with ups and downs, just like every other life on this planet.
Sometimes I have more ups, and sometimes the downs dominate.
To me, it's like walking a tightrope. One can lose one's footings. it's a balancing act. and sometimes it just means hanging on to that "umbrella" in order not to fall off ....
I made an illustration about it, based on Psalm 46:1 :
~God is our mighty fortress, always ready to help in times of trouble~
Hope you like it!

dreams on a leash

from time to time i do some serious pondering ... and it struck me that i often put my dreams and wishes on a leash - or hardly allow myself to dream anymore. although i've got a lot of dreams. some are small and feasible (with a little time and energy and money) and some seem absolutely impossible to realize. i've given my dreams permission to fly and be free. maybe someday some will return back to me, fulfilled and a reality. who knows? miracles still happen.
