Stepping Into

    1. I’ve missed you too. I am going to see how much blogging I can do. The 21 gun Military Honor Service was beautiful. It does not go any higher then a 21 gun salute, Shrimp. My Dad was a hero. Not only for this country but for me too. He would want me to move forward towards that door that has now opened. I LOVE YOU. (((HUGS))) MB

      1. Thanks, Shrimpee. I will do what I can and on those days I just want to relax or cry or just watch a movie, I shall. I have all my posts made up for the week too. I did that today. Lots of flowers coming your way just for YOU!!! Yummy! Love, MB

    1. Now that is A comment that gets me grinning. Thank YOU! I edited this image while on a plane going through much turbulence, and while bouncing all over the place, I managed to do this. GRIN! Your comment made all the effort worth it. Bless you! Love, Amy

    1. I am choosing to BE so, Marissa. I know my Dad to be in a place I saw in 1984. I didn’t want to come back, and I KNOW that he is finally HOME. Yes, I miss him terribly so. Yet, I am choosing to go forward, and as I do, see the door that has now opened for me. (((HUGS))) Amy

      1. Some stay stuck, Marissa. I’ve done it. And it is miserable. Yet even that phase of my Life, I learned very valuable Lessons that when I was ready to move forward, I brought with me. Everything honestly does have a Purpose. Love, Amy

    1. I’m as well as I can be, Linda. I am blogging as best as I can on the days that I can. Just taking one day at a time. My Dad’s 21 gun salute Military Service was top of the line beautiful. I am SO glad I made a super human effort to get there. I am doing my best to look forward, and on those days where the pain of my loss is needed to be released in tears, that is what I will do. Trying to establish routine as well, to get back to “norm”. Bless you for asking. (((HUGS))) Amy

  1. okay – I had to come back and leave a comment for this one – because the stepping into line was extaly what the two different focusses on the flower felt like – for example, there is a soft focus on the pistils – and a soft focus to the back of the flower – but then the inner petals are all clear – and well not sure how the heck you did that – but it pulls you in and really felt like we had to step inside to get going – nice my dear.

    1. Thank you, LadyBlueSki. I do have some secrets, yet this I do know. This image was actually a mistake. I was aiming my DOF to the pistils and because my camera is so precise in MF that in the shaking of my hands and a finger that did not depress the shutter fast enough, the focus was shifted a teeny bit, and thus, this image came about. Sometimes our mistakes really do become our biggest Gifts. Thank you for your glorious comment, my friend. Love, LadyPinkRose

      1. well in the art room (when I used to teach elementary art) we called these mistakes “happy accidents” – and in life – well – whew – “God appointments” ha!
        have a nice day – and “may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing that you may about in hope and in power by the power of the holy spirit”

  2. Serene and beautiful, Amy! That’s is the way life goes, and when we step into the flow we’ll be brought to balance. Sometimes it takes a while. Was thinking of you over the weekend. Love, Tiny

    1. Thank you, Tiny, for thinking of me. My Dad’s service was so beautiful and so sad at the same time. I and some of my brothers just clung to one another and out of this great sorrow, beauty has sprung in bringing back together some of my brothers and on sister back into my Life. And Life goes on, as the River continuously flows. Love to you, my friend. (((HUGS))) Amy

  3. So glad you were there at that Amazing ceremony for your father! My co- worker passed away Monday from Lymphoma she had been diagnosed with just 4 months! She worked 3 weeks before she passed away! It has almost been surreal as I feel her in my heart in a very light body now! I had such an opportunity to let go in her passing, and remembering that Love really is the only thing that matters. Praying that you feel that connection with your father into eternity …with a heart to heart connection and he can still be your hero! Much love Robyn. Beautiful post and flower pic as well my friend!

    1. Robyn, I am so sorry for your loss. Believe me, she is in the place I wish to be. Having a NDE I KNOW what it is like on the Other Side. That does not stop the missing though. I do feel a connection with my Dad, and later on today, I am posting pics that are quite different from my norm, that I took yesterday when I had a very heavy heart. My Dad is my hero and now officially on LadyPinkRose’s Creative Team. (smile) Love, Amy

      1. I Had an NDE as well. knowing the other side is bliss! Creating that bliss here on Earth is the ultimate! So happy your Dad is on your team! I have my Mother (Jeri), My best friend, (Margie) co-worker, (Frances) and sister in law, (Renate), all being my angels, living in their new light bodies, they communicate with me often. looking forward to coming to see photos over the weekend! Connecting to your Heart Robyn

      2. Robyn, my Dad is in a healing chamber right now, so his full Light Body is not in form yet. He went to the Other Side unable to forgive himself, so the Angels right now are helping him. (I am getting a post together to talk about this very subject … unforgiveness.) He must be sneaking out to help me. LOL I feel his presence, now and then, and I am hoping it will be constant once he is fully healed. Yes, I too understand that Bliss. I was SO angry when I came back. It took me years to stop longing to go back. Now you see why I was told I must come back. I have begun my legacy to show this world what LOVE is. Bless you, my friend! (((HUGS))) Amy
