Last night, the night winds told me tales of the meadows…

Last night, the night winds told me tales of the meadows…

Last night, the night winds told me tales of the meadows…The stars twinkled as lilies in the sky…As a pup this happens to me every night…Before I sink into my pillow and go to sleep. The morning light wakes me…

Worry makes me smaller than I already am….

Worry makes me smaller than I already am….

Worry makes me smaller than I already am….It turns my fur turn a kind of yellowy white…It splits me right down the middle…And the fight within, robs me of who I really am. I become like a sun beaten slope…Isolated…

So pastel, so peaceful…

So pastel, so peaceful…

So pastel, so peaceful…Like living on the seashore and playing in the sunshine…Casting light instead of shade…Pulling beauty from craziness. I’m still trying to name that color…It must be some color of a new world…How is it able to refresh…

Happy Thanksgiving! I’m almost always thankful, but when I’m not, I always remember…

Happy Thanksgiving! I’m almost always thankful, but when I’m not, I always remember…

Happy Thanksgiving! I’m almost always thankful, but when I’m not, I always remember… All colors change when mixed with black…Hanging in the air and then tumbling to the ground…Making me defensive against the things that will do me good…Freeze me…

I often feel that my life has been, “always…”

I often feel that my life has been, “always…”

I often feel that my life has been, “always…”Have you ever felt the same?Something deep inside me as pure as a snow crystal…A surprise always waiting for me inside the blue air. This feeling is beyond any limit or boundary…Life…

Book Reviews

"The How I Found Trouble Books are absolutely timeless. I've read both of them at least 3 times, they just make me laugh and feel young. I've given the books to different members of my family and we all have the same reaction. Well done and thank you Jeff Shapiro. And please we need another."
