Is it a kiss

heaven
often sweeps the strings of
only to later reveal
layer by layer
layer by layer

| tumblr |
the grand finale of
your unseen self

| tumblr |
as you reunite face to face

with who you were meant to be
in
the echo of stardust.

I have missed you,Anita...with all of your beauty and glorious inspiration. One day we will see Him Face to face!
Oh how H E A V E N L Y!!!!!
Your words, the images, the song,
and Gingers dress : )
You've put me in the mood for a romantic black and white movie my dear. As well as a renewed AWE
for the glories of heaven and
the One we will lay our crowns before as we behold His beauty.
love you my dear friend.

I love when the music, the images and the words make me feel inspired. Every post that you write is like that for me.
It is a rain and snow mix right now, but we are supposed to get snow all the way thru Friday. We are in the snow belt, so we might get about 6 inches.
sigh, I am ready for Spring.
Karen
Love how you peel
away more and more
of your own layers
in the quest to find
your authentic and
creative self. Lovely
words, my friend!

So happy to see you back! Today's post really touched me. I think it is the stage I am going through as I discover my new life in France.
Thank you for the beautiful delivery.
Welcome back! Wonderful song for your beautiful and thoughtful post.
Welcome back Anita. You have been missed. We were just wondering about half an hour ago if you'd post this week and look here you are. As always thoughtful and beautiful. We hope all is well and your brake was a good one. We always love the Gothic. Have a wonderful Wednesday.
Best wishes Molly

Dearest Anita,
One day I will be reunited with my mother, father, and brother, and won't that be glorious? I'm so glad that you are back, I missed your beautiful posts very much, as they have so much meaning behind them. Ones that give us all a lift in life and bring back the sparkle that we may be missing for a time. I love the picture of the girl making her way to the top of the CASTLE. I hope you are making progress in your job search, and I'm glad you got to take a little break and rest from blogland. I think it's time for me soon. When we take time for ourselves, we come back refreshed and ready to go and create such wonderful posts as this one.
Happy Anniversary, sweet one - 31 years, how special is that? I thank you for showing many young people the sacredness of marriage by staying with your own husband for so long. It's not easy at times, I know, but the outcome is so worth it. Do something very special to celebrate today. You deserve it more than you know.
~Sheri at Red Rose Alley
AAAAAAAAAh>>>there you are..and that's what I will also say when I meet you in that special place...
big hug my dear friends...31 years..WOW!!!
You were missed Anita! What an absolutely Heavenly post for your return......Your blog looks fabulous, love the header!

So lovely to see you back again dear friend and with a truly gorgeous post.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful writing and pictures.
Happy Anniversary to you and Ruben and best wishes for many, many happy and wonderful years ahead.

I've missed your beautiful posts, too. These images are magical. I'll go back and look at them again and again! Sweet hugs!
I am so glad I found you again. You make my spirit soar, and I so need that right now.
Beautiful post!
Glad you're back... you were missed! I love, love, love your creative posts. They are spectacular! :)
Anita
You always manage to bring something that uplifts. And we really need to see that side of things in a world that would crush it out of us and keep us from being who we were meant to be.
Love
Ruben
P.S., love those little rabbits multiplying. A nice little surprise.
Good afternoon Anita...Heaven indeed...such a beautiful post as always and to watch Fred and Ginger as I sip my afternoon coffee just adds to the magic...It's perfect!
Hope you're having a great week,
Susan x
I remember the first time I saw those paintings and newspapers come to life in the Harry Potter movies I was so crazy about the technique. You use it so brilliantly. I love the way the images move... just a flash of time. Heaven on earth always comes in small bites, doesn't it?
Good to have you back.
Thank you soooo much, my dear friend.........your lovely words make even the sun shine brighter!!! And it´s always such a joy to visit you in your wonderland!! Have a great day (here in Bavaria it is sooooo hot today),,
hugs Jade, Sheila and the cats ;)
This post, pure Heaven! Set my heart fluttering! So lovely!
Thank you, dear Anita.....N.xo
Wow, Anita, such a stunning post! Love the image with Adrian Brody a- and all the other ones, uniting beautifully into a magical story. Well done dear one - LOVE your poetry in motion!
Thank you so much for your kind words on my blog. My son Robin designed the "Impressions"handwriting for me and i quite like it - so glad you do too!
Blogging is an adventure, right? Many hugs to you, have a lovely day!
From the music to the quote, the photographs and your delicious writing, I am in heaven now...and the truth is that I actually am in heaven at this very moment.
Welcome back, friend.
MUAH!
Morning sweet Anita!
Oh the BLUE of heaven is the perfect color. "my blue heaven" see, perfect.
Lovely post my dear, lovely. Can't wait to see that Salmon dress, can't wait.
Thank you so for your friendship. Have a great day. I'm getting my hair done today ~ ~ ~ that is my heaven on earth ~ ~ ~
Thank you so much dearest Anita for your very kind and loving words..Heaven on Earth sounds simply blissful...a stunning post! Much Love to you on this Friday, Dzintra xo
Love this...happy anniversary to you & your hubby from S. CA xxpeggybraswelldesign.com
Glad to see you are back :) I hope you had a wonderful vacation!

Hello dearest.
Great to see you visit today. I have been absent, as you know. Devoid of inspiration during these cold, grey days. Yesterday seemed like a re-awakening after a long hibernation.
Your discoveries are inspirational. What a strange road we travel along. Each stop along the way teaching us. All we have to do is look, listen and learn. That's the hard bit, and just when you think you have it, the journey ends. Maybe that's the whole point. What a great adventure :-)
Much love
Di

Thank you dear Anita....I am well...You always put a smile on my face,....Blessings to you, Dzintra xo
"It's never to late to be what you might have been." George Eliot
Heaven it is. ;)
Hugs to you dearest friend.
Lovely, lovely, lovely. Heaven is in all of us, and should shine out from all of us, and BEFORE we actually get to heaven, we need to embrace all the heaven we have right here on earth....as you said
Oh it is nice to find that slice of heaven on earth. :)
So happy to see you posting again, my friend! I hope things are going well for you.
Heidi
I just adore your images you find! HOW ARE YOU my friend?...it has been a very busy week and I just have not had time to visit you. So sorry!
It is easy to find a little bit of Heaven on earth...though I think once we get to Heaven we will be very surprised with what we find...I don't think our human mind can even comprehend what we will see.
Have a happy Friday....enjoy a cup on tea on me! xoxo
Jet'envoie un gros bisou d'amitié et te souhaite une très belle journée.
Marie-Ange
Wonderful! With a piece of heaven I'm starting my day now ;)
Thanks Anita!
Hugs, Sabrina
Dearest Anita, thanl you so much for your sweet and ebcouraging words about my art! I know you're into elegant whites and greys and it makes me happy you still enjoy my COLORs!
If you like my header, i can ask Robin if he'd make one for you too. He's a student at art school, but he does design for websites sometimes - shall i?
Although you know that i do love your beautiful blog as it is. Just enjoyed seeing this gorgeous post again.
So - you're going to full time teaching again?
See you over the weekend - Love!
Bonjour Anita, vous êtes de retour :)
Très beau billet !
Cordialement !
morning Anita! I kind of don't like my hair. It is too dark and a bit 'muddy'. Urgh. I wanted it darker but not this dark. dang. Otherwise my day yesterday was fun. We had dinner at our friends in Midvale and we had a nice drive back and forth. No crime scenes this time.
You seem refreshed and ready for a nice weekend. Please enjoy it and have a nice time. I am anxious to see your Salmon dress that fits perfectly!!! Yay!!!
Hi Nita, I don't have much to say today. Thank you for your visit and this lovely post. Yours always...
Lovely, Anita. We all have our own ideas of heaven...certainly kissing Johnny Depp might be one :) and watching Ginger and Fred is divine. A fabulous book is another. And last night I saw Preservation Hall Jazz band in a live concert...yes, that was sheer delight.
One can find heaven on earth if one looks closely enough, listens and loves.
Here you are again with your beautiful and charming way to deliver a message, several messages. Heaven on earth... YES... it is ours to experience, because the One who has promised heaven forever, first created this very earth and US, to enjoy it all!!
As always, you make me smile and want to dance or clap!! :)
xo
Dear Anita,
Beautifully stated and illustrated. As always, I leave your page with a smile and a sense of magical wonder.
Blissful tidings to you! xo

Hello dearest Anita!!!!
How is it you always have the most inspiring posts!!! I love this!!!!! The Thoreau quote has always been a favorite!!!! How are you? I've been thinking of you!!!!
The snow has been slowly melting away; I think we're heading towards spring.
I was at a few fun fashion events at Saks this week; I covered the Manolo event in my blog.
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!!!!!!!!
Sending luv & hugs,
Shannon
Enchanteur ma belle! You know how to wisk us away to a place of dreams and paradise! How are you doing my friend? We are busy busy busy on Golden Pond these days. Happiness, sadness, hopefulness, many many emotions going on. It's so wonderful to come visit you and escape.
Much love to you mon amie!Still trying to learn a bit of french here and there. Just got a another learning book, it should be called Learning French for Dummies! I think this book might have what I need LOL

You are such a dear.

Oh Anita, yes! I love it! Especially the last definition: to have been lost and finally found. This is beautiful and so moving.
Thank you, dear friend, for your compliments on the new table. I am looking forward to styling the entire area around it. And YOUR new projects sound amazing. I can just imagine how lovely they must look. We don't have long to wait now until we'll be enjoying it all in the sunshine. I spotted a patch of remaining snow yesterday that is gone today. We are warming up quickly!
Happy weekend to you!
Keri
Full of thoughts to ponder and photos to delight in--I love the inspiration that challenges us to stretch...

Who ever would've thought LOl! Hope you are having a fabulous weekend...Cheers to you, Love Dzintra xo
I can't believe it has taken me this long to come visit you! So sorry my friend. It is one lovely sunny day here on the west-coast of British Columbia...sooooo I have been busy outside on this beautiful day.
I have also been busy with school and now my trip prep...9 more days...did I tell you i will have tea with our friend Francis! I am soooooo excited...so not only will I meet the sweet Saskia ...I will see a few other blog friends. We will make sure we raise our teacups in your honor!

Hello hello you absolutely FUN person!(of course, you are ALSO the serious, thoughtful and soulful poet as well) I am going nutty over your moving pictures and trying to get James to figure how to make my illustrations "come to life". Yours are so stunning and hypnotic, I love it. Fondly from the Hollow... Jeri and Hamish PS> You did not find Fionna, you spied 3 little duckies though!
Good grief, I nearly forgot to say, "Wonderful< wonderful Anniversary to you both! What a lovely couple you are.
YES AND YES! You win a tortoise pie!
Good morning Anita, waving at you from a rainy and grey Rotterdam. It's that kind of day when candles burn, a pie in the oven and children play with lego and dolls. Well, it is at this moment, things can change any minute when having little ones ;)
I've missed our conversations, esp en francais. Time has been flying and my days have been filled to the max but now that we're settled in the new home, rest flows.
Have a relaxing dimanche, make sure you take time to put your feet up Mon Amie, des baisers et des pensees xxx

This is one of my favorites Anita. The pictures you chose are perfection with your words. I love layer by layer, unseen self, and face to face (and the bunnies too). Simply beautiful. I am so glad I noticed this today, didn't realize I had missed one. I hadn't expected you back yet so had not been watching. Thanks for the magic!!
Stunning...
Going back to read it again..
Just exquisite, dear sister...
Love you.
Très joli choix en noir et blanc. Une danse avec Adrian ou un baiser léger sur la joue de J. Deep... mystère. Heureuse de ton retour.
This is an absolutely gorgeous post! So magical!!!
