Below is a wonderful poem Audrey Hepburn wrote when asked to share her "beauty tips." It was read at her funeral years later.For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, recl... Read More
Do you remember telephones? Foolish question? Maybe so, in these times, but I remember when it wasn't 'UNUSUAL” to not have a phone.

Her clothes weren't clean, her body unwashed, made being around her a chore for me. But then there was that issue of a soft heart that... Read More
DON'T STIR THE SPOILED STEW I don't rightly know when I started forgetting more, making more messes, or just plain started doing things backwards but it doesn't matter. I'm There! I think that is what makes me remember so well in my past when I didn't do these things. OH BUT DID I? Last Saturday I was doing my extra grooming that I do when I'm going out somewhere. Shape and paint my fingernails, do my hair, etc. Only thing about that is I'm much slower... Read More
