"Peace and Joy!"

Right back at you Stafford :) Be safe on the boaty and enjoy the fireworks at the New Year celebrations. Let's hope 2012 is a good one.
ReplyDeleteLovely Haiku....this morning I looked to see if you had posted lately and ahah
ReplyDeleteI said "So there you are!"
and I am going to use your greeting for Atheists- "A year of co-operation" for everyone;Christians, Muslims,Jews,HIndus,Buddhists etc- we all need to get along.
So here's a toast to a better year-a year of co-operation!
When I was a little girl living in Sandy Bay, Hobart, Tasmania, Mrs Ruth Bowling was our landlord. She was the sweetest,most adventurous woman I knew, living by the code, all in good time.
ReplyDeleteMuslims, Christians, Buddhists lived together - students all and we celebrated all festivals.
Christmas was special to me-until today.
And Mrs Bowling was the epitome of an embracing woman- a lovable atheist for sure.
Merry Christmas Stafford. And thank you for reminding me how I loved Mrs Bowling.
Good writing!
