n.o.w.~forever violet {by sarah nean bruce}

you may have crushed my heart,
but you did not crush my spirit.
.
i did not shrink,
i let go,
i flourished,
i grew taller.
.
i forgave you,
i forgave myself.
i forgave the stars.
.
the love i have, the love i gave ~
is forever violet,
forgiving,
healing,
fragrant,
ever-radiant.
.
much, a.d.o.

inspired by ~

Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it. ~ Mark Twain

my scraggly alley cat adopted from a thrift shop

Perfect timing For Halloween, my rough and raggedy cat is black and looks like a vamp-cat.

I’m calling him “Dog” in memory of the first cat I remember naming, when I was 3, while we lived a block up from Lake Union.

{Since DOG is not an actual cat, and just exists in a painting, I won’t have to worry about him throwing up hairballs on my light colored carpet. Altho I may need a frame since the paint on the canvas goes around the edge and I don’t want it to rub off}

Anyway that’s all the news for now on my virtual nearly care-free pet.
;-)
