Updated AUGUST 2006

Hi, my name is Elaine, welcome,
hope you will enjoy your visit here.

Happy August to you all...
How is your garden enjoying this crazy weather
that we are having in England?
My grass is becoming greener with all the rain we have been having
and the plants are really enjoying the goodness the rain gives them.

I know that Autumn is round the corner,
I have a wonderful web page that you will enjoy
to help you adjust :-) click here


A few poems from my Friendship and Inspiration pages.....

"The greatest good you can do for another,
is not just to share your riches
but to reveal to him his own."
~By Benjamin Disraeli~


HOW OFTEN WE WISH FOR ANOTHER CHANCE

How often we wish for another chance
To make a fresh beginning.
A change to blot out our mistakes.
And change failure into winning.
And it does not take a special time
To make a brand-new start,
It only takes the deep desire
To try with all our heart,
To live a little better
And to always be forgiving,
To add a little sunshine
To the world in which we're living.

So never give up in despair
And think that you are through,
For there's always a tomorrow
And a chance to start anew.

A FRIEND SHOULD BE RADICAL...

A Friend should be radical,
They should love you
when you're unlovable,
Hug you when you're unhuggable,
And bear with you
when you're unbearable.

A Friend should be fanatical;
They should cheer
when the whole world boos,
Dance when you get good news,
And cry when you cry too.

But most of all,
A friend should be mathematical,
They should multiply the joy,
Divide the sorrow,

Subtract the past,
And add to tomorrow,
Calculate the need
deep in your heart,
And always be bigger
than the sum of all their parts.
