On April 7th , the Duchess posted a thoughtful essay of
"IF"s.
It has stayed with me and I have enjoyed it as
a thought provoking look at myself.
Thank you, Duchess! I'm so happy to have crossed paths with you!
Why not try filling in the blanks for yourself?!

If I were the weather, I would be sunny with a lilac scented breeze.
If I were a direction I would be north.
If I were a scent, I would be coffee.

I love to read your "if". I just wish that I could ask you the why's. For example, why would you be "sunrise"? Why would you be "champagne"? Yes, I think I will try it myself. I do know that I wouldn't be sunrise. I like to sleep in too much! I hope everything is going well for you. School will be out soon, girl!
ReplyDeleteJust lovely!!! Have a nice week!!
ReplyDeleteJan, I can most certainly relate to your comment. You want to know all the "why's" and I was thinking about my own answers and thinking that I couldn't possibly leave it at one word!! I would need to explain (in detail) why I chose the answer I did. :)
ReplyDeleteHA HA it's the blabber-mouth in me. I guess I didn't get this impulse from my mother!!
LOVE YOUR LIST, MOM!! :)
I agree with car one! Go the Chevy!
