It's All Yours, Forever

Nothing you love is lost. Not really. Things, people - they always go away, sooner or later. You can’t hold them, any more than you can hold moonlight. But if they’ve touched you, if they’re inside you, then they’re still yours. The only things you ever really have are the ones you hold inside your heart. - Bruce Coville in "Jeremy Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher"

Happy heavenly birthday to my late husband James!

Do Silly Things

Do silly things. 

Foolishness is a great deal more vital and healthy 

than our straining and striving after a meaningful life.

Lost Dreams

Lost Dreams by Dominique Allmon©2024

I had grand dreams when I was younger. 
I imagined a life of fame and glory, 
but as real life caught up with me
I had to downsize my dreams. 
Today they are all meaningless. 
Life became small and grey, 
and I am no longer that dreamer...
