"If you don't like something, change it.  If you can't change it, change your attitude"

She was a wise woman

Amen. Her loss is a great one but the gifts she leaves behind through her writing are even greater.

....a great tree has fallen in the forest.....

What a powerful poem!

Now here is the sort of spirit I need dwelling in me!

That spirit is mine to make .... it cannot be borrowed....

She knew what love is all about .....

I will miss her and cherish her example always....

Love

Rita
