@oodiebom,

Good day on the Gulf Coast of Florida. 💕😎🎈I am still a bit under the weather I am losing
my voice. Such is life. 😎

Oz is warm today and throughout the week we will be in triple digits. I am doing the thread
with one eye open and one eye closed. LOL! Good thing I have been doing this thread for
nearly 14 years and can do it in my sleep. 😎🎈

I did read your post from last night I am missing Dolly Parton like crazy. I watched a special
on her life last night the thing is I knew everything about her and I loved everything about
her. Dolly had so much love and grace that is what made her so unique. I hope her and Carl
and together again. 😎💕May she RIP.

Today is the day Princess Diana left us she will always be missed. 💕

Just so happens my mother, daughter and sister were in England during that time and left
beautiful flowers for her at Kensington Palace. 💕

Oodie take it easy today the cake sounds good you brought for your husband’s birthday. 💕🎈
Let me know how your day goes and be careful with the weather.

Goodbye England’s Rose – Sir Elton John

Goodbye England’s Rose
May you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed itself
Where lives were torn apart
You called out to our country
And you whispered to those in pain
Now you belong to heaven
And the stars spell out your name

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset
When the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here
Along England’s greenest hills
Your candle’s burned out long before
Your legend ever will

Loveliness we’ve lost
These empty days without your smile
This torch we’ll always carry
For our nation’s golden child
And even though we try
The truth brings us to tears
All our words cannot express
The joy you brought us through the years

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset
When the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here
Along England’s greenest hills
Your candle’s burned out long before
Your legend ever will

Goodbye England’s rose
May you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed itself
Where lives were torn apart
Goodbye England’s rose
From a country lost without your soul
Who’ll miss the wings of your compassion
More than you’ll ever know

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset
When the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here
Along England’s greenest hills
Your candle’s burned out long before
Your legend ever will

Not everything handed to us belongs in the life we are building. Some expectations, identities, and stories were placed upon us before we knew we were allowed to question them. Rowan reminds us that discernment is the quiet courage to examine what we carry. We can honor the lessons without continuing to live inside another person’s song. Release what was never yours, trust your inner guidance, and choose the path that allows you to stand honestly in your own name.

Flowering Dreams and Fractured Reality
==========================
We live within a blend
of fragile beauty and harsh reality.
Like a torn painting,
tomorrow is never certain.
Yet every stroke of color today
is a chance to create something meaningful.
Find beauty in fragility,
and let your heart bloom,
even when the world
sometimes begins to fade.

On this day Diana, Princess of Wales (born Diana Frances Spencer; 1 July 1961 – 31 August 1997) died on 31 August 1997, aged 36, as a result of injuries sustained in a car crash in the Pont de l’Alma tunnel in Paris while her driver was fleeing the paparazzi.

The crash also claimed the lives of her companion Dodi Fayed and their driver, Henri Paul, who was also acting security manager of the Hôtel Ritz Paris.

The event was broadcast to more than 200 countries and seen by an estimated 2.5 billion people worldwide

Blooming in Silence
Life is a blank canvas, constantly unfolding. Don’t be afraid to paint with the boldest colors, and let your spontaneous brushstrokes create an unexpected symphony of beauty. Because true magic often lies beyond straight lines and predetermined shapes.

Elegance in the Silence
Every fallen rose petal holds a memory; every newly blooming petal carries a new hope, ready to grow..even in solitude.

Enjoy these last days of Summer. 🎈😎
