How I miss her posts....<br /><br />Thank you for coming to visit me today. We are preparing our holiday meal which will be simple, but that is OK...and filling in the emptiness with gratitude really is the way to go about it. Thank GOD for the voids and the areas that need reparation, healing, understanding, or else we wouldn't appreciate the goodness that is accorded to us.<br /><br />I know you have had your Thanksgiving already up in Canada, but whenever anyone celebrates anything around the world, all of us rejoice. Peace, growth and happiness to you, always! Looking forward to more creations from you!

First of all, I would like to than...Dearest Sylvia,<br />First of all, I would like to thank you so much for stopping by to see me, faithful friend and sister! :) We are down to one computer here, and it is very difficult to adhere to a regular blogging schedule...I think of you often. <br />As for this gorgeous post...you know, Anita and I were just corresponding regarding this very thing. How comminication is becoming less personal, etc., and the magic of sending and receiving hand-written letters and cards. Vulnerability,humanity, and soul magic become the missing pieces...efficiency taking their place. I, too, write out all of my holiday cards as well as (most) thank you's. I don't even have my birthday up on FB because I don't want a wave of impersonal messages. I am so grateful for artists and souls like you and Anita who understand the value and importance of this increasingly lost art.<br />Finally, it is SO thrilling to see that your photography will be shared with the world in this way, dear one! You are a phenomenal talent, and I congratulate you on this new adventure...may you have tremedous success! I will do a blog post to share...oh, so good! You do not need to enter me in the drawing (although it is so very kind and generous for you to do this)...I will be shopping at your Etsy store....can't wait!<br />Sending lots of love to you,<br />- Irina :)Palomaseahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00657973188175649386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4555171132259127071.post-45228154021743633972014-11-24T10:54:58.743-05:002014-11-24T10:54:58.743-05:00Поздравления за креативността!

I so know how busy days don't allow for regular posting. I am now down to posting once a month because I want to stay connected, but school is just too demanding. <br /><br />Your comments are so kind. I do my best in school, but there are so many others who are top-notch teachers that excel in certain areas yet to be mastered by me...but we all have something to offer the classroom and especially, to the students. I carry on...<br /><br />OH! I forgot to say that I'd like to enter your giveaway! How could I not want a chance to have your own photography in a collection? Please put me down!<br /><br />Many hugs to you from a very cold but beautiful Minnesota! LOVE!

I think this is a wonderful way to share ...Sylvia,<br /><br />I think this is a wonderful way to share your beautiful photography with the world! I will be sure to follow the notes to be entered in the giveaway~thank you. I'll also post about it and your blog and shop. Just because I think readers will fall in love as I have!<br /><br />I try to do handwritten cards, my own handwriting is terrible and hard to read! lol! But as you say, it's individual and shows our personality (in so many words). When I get a handwritten note, letter or invitation, it gets taped up for all to see!<br /><br />Thank you for a great post. I will be back to see your holiday cards. A sweet stamp inside will make them very personal and festive! :)<br /><br />Jane xBlondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4555171132259127071.post-11967146504864853382014-11-19T16:12:35.725-05:002014-11-19T16:12:35.725-05:00Your cards and your new shop are gprgeous, as is a...Your cards and your new shop are gprgeous, as is all that you do!

Who would have thought that as an adult, I'd have many PEN PALS now, as a blogger. The only thing missing however, is writing the messages by hand. I simply do not have time; my fingers, like many other peoples', work faster on the keyboard. However, a hand-written card is the most lovely thing to find in the mailbox after a long day at work. Your cards are so beautiful with your signature photography in muted tones and blissful blurry backgrounds. Much love to you, Sylvia!

I did in fact post a letter I had written yesterday to a blogger who had said she loves to get real ones and although I do correspond by e-mail I also write letters occasionally since I know how different they are to receive - you can't slip an e-mail in a pocket to re-read later can you?Marigold Jamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02895195019277206960noreply@blogger.com
