John Denver had a song in the early 80’s called ‘Heart to Heart’. The words are beautiful and the love that they speak of is my wish for the New Year…..for my family, friends, and for all of you who have become a part of my life in a most mystical yet real way.
I haven’t seen all there is to see
But I’ve seen quite a bit
Some things I’ll always remember
Some things I wish that I could forget
I haven’t quite been around the world
But I’ve been around the block
I know that distances are meaningless
Like the hands that move around a clock
And I know that love is everywhere
Always safe, always true
And exactly where it comes from
Is where its going to
Your heart to mine
My heart to yours
Talk about opening windows
Talk about opening doors
My heart to yours
Your heart to mine
Love is a light that shines
From heart to heart
Very beautiful. Peace to your heart from my own and many blessings in great abundance. I am grateful to walk along the way with you out here! God bless you.
And I am grateful as well Fran
May this year end well and the new year begin beautifully for you and yours 🙂
Thanks Claire and I pray that your year will be healthy and happy

Thanks Mariel, it was….hope yours was as well.
Of the old lyrics I used to listen to, I have had this song going over in my mind:
Bridge Over Troubled Water
P. Simon, 1969
When you’re weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes,
I will dry them all
I’m on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can’t be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you’re down and out
When you’re on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I’ll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
When you need a friend
I’m sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Thanks Richard, another great song. Oh, if we could live those words what a great 2011 we’d have
Lovely thoughts and reflections here especially at this time of the year. Thank you for this Andie.
