I felt the world yawn today, as a warm soothing breath passed, caressing my face
I watched as it knowingly prepared for the dawning, each tree stretching upward, in thanks, towards the sky
As if it had just awakened from a deep, restful slumber. I smiled as I tasted adventure pass by
The soft, fragrant fog unfurled before me, revealing new wonders of newness and hope. Intoxicating wisps of excitement took over, graciously inviting me to join in
It's steps, like a secret, silently rolled away. Uncovering new music, joyful songs of the birds. Where grief and sweet memory mingle together in battle, this delicate dance between nature and I

12 Life Lessons The Golden Girls Taught Us
Picture it: Miami, 1985. Four middle-aged actresses agree to play the characters of Blanche, Rose, Dorothy, and Sophia who share a home in a TV sitcom called The Golden Girls, unaware at the time of the kind of impact the show would leave on its adoring fans. The show aired until 1992, ending with a one-season spinoff called Golden Palace. The seven years we were graced with The Golden Girls on our television screens made its mark. More than three decades after Susan Harris’ imagination sparked the creation of these iconic characters, fans from around the world still watch reruns of The Golden Girls, spend time discussing the show on social media in Facebook groups like The Golden Girls Fanatics, carry Sophia-inspired handbags and relate to the episodes in their daily lives.
