Dear Friends,
Here we are.
It’s February already. One week in and so much of 2021 to go.
If you’re a writer, maybe you’re a bit stuck…like me. Writing anything of value seems elusive. There are moments when something good plops onto the page and I’m grateful for those times. But it would be so easy to say “the heck with it.”
Instead:

I’m reaching into the well and pulling out bits and pieces to help others.
I’m keeping Jesus in sight. I’m letting him comfort me. I’m turning my face to the sun. And I’m smiling. Why? Because the eyes are pretty much the only thing people see when you’re wearing a mask. And smiling makes my eyes light up.
How are you doing?
Hugs to all, and HOPE in abundance.
B.J. and Charlie Bear

Charlie Bear and I will pray for you.
HOPE
Definitely do not give up! Some days it fliws….others it steps inside, getting richer so it can be shared. You know that. And it works, with time.
Live you. Miss you. Maybe Thumbs should have a Zoom reunion, just to check the flow. Someday. Keep smiling.
I won’t give up, Jean…just like you, we persevere and climb out on top of the sludge to victoriously wave our flag of non-surrender!
I miss you too. Keep smiling at your new home/environment.
LOVE YOU
