Joy

Posted on December 20, 2013 by russtowne

To hear the beating of the smallest heart
and pause in respect and reverence,
know and honor unspoken dreams,
welcome those with open arms
who deem themselves invisible,
and comfort hidden pain.

With Love,
Russ

About russtowne

I'm awed by the beauty of nature and the power of love and gratitude. Some of my favorite sensory experiences include waves crashing on rocky shores, waterways in ancient redwood and fern-filled forests, and rain. My wife and I have been married since 1979. We have 3 adult children and 5 grandchildren. I manage a wealth management firm that I founded in 2003. My Beloved is a Special Education teacher for Kindergartners and First Graders. I'm a published author of approximately 60 books in a variety of genres for grownups and children.

    Hello. This and all your posts have uplifted me this year. Thanks for your inspiration. I am now going off air for three weeks. ‘See’ you in the new year. I hope you and your family have a joyous Christmas.
