Blessed - (enlarge)

I read in the introduction.

Quote you:

"Among these are devastating sorrow, pain, emptiness, loneliness, despair, fear, regret, hunger and even worse, ones who are so young that they do not have the ability to even understand their circumstances. "

I'm with you. We can open a club. Sgt Pepper opened one once and the Beatles popularized it.

We can open a brand new one !

I have crystal soul but an iron fist ! Compensates :)

Heads up and Up the Irons Gail !

Yes Florin, someone must defend the helpless. Those of us who are blessed with children, grandchildren, aunts, uncles, cousins, and can have wonderful celebrations together, yes we are truly blessed. My heart aches for those who do not have such blessings that we often take for granted, may I never fail to be thankful.

You have each shared your lovely comments about this collage. Thank you for taking the time to let me know!!!

Lovely to hear from you and I appreciate you taking the time to let me know you enjoyed this composition!!!

Gail,  this is a superb, fresh and original composition that speaks of and family family. It is going in my favorites. I also thank you for the encouraging comments by you of my work. Regards, Alfredo

Pd: IMHO composed images can result it gaudy undefined work, you in turn, have the ability of avoiding this.

Your 'view' of all that is beautiful has always made an impression on me. I am very grateful for these positive words shared. The encouragement means more that you can ever know.

Most sincerely, Gail
