"We begin to find and become ourselves when we notice how we are already found, already truly, entirely, wildly, messily, marvelously who we were born to be.”

Well, here I am....a day late! Love the piece--love the words with it. Butterflies have flourished here this summer, maybe because the climate is right, maybe because of all the flowers. There are never enough of them! I watch as the flutter by me! ;)
I love your six word poem and your beautiful illustration. :) The flutterbys are numerous here this summer. My DH planted rows of zinnias for their amusement and ours. Thank you for visiting me! xox Pam
Ahhh...the flutterby! I call butterflies by that word as well and my grandkids love it! I love this collage...you've got a winner here, lolo, just as all of your art is, to me. Completely magical!!!xoxo

So pretty...a female Henry V.
Is this a painting? A collage of cut outs? A digitally altered photos, all of the above???? Tell all.
Lynn, she would make a nice girlfriend for Henry V!
It's a digital collage made with my cheapo PrintShop Pro thingy.
LOVE LOVE LOVE it! :) Very beautiful and moving. Love how it makes me feel.
Sehr Schoen! (In German, "very beautiful".) Your creative, magical mind continues to astound me! Yes, I, too love the purple flutterbys......
Lynn's comment was too cute.... a"Queen" for Henry V?
Hoping the day is gorgeous and not humid....
Love to you, "SH" and Ms. Bliss!

Well, here I am....a day late!
Love the piece--love the words with it. Butterflies have flourished here this summer, maybe because the climate is right, maybe because of all the flowers.
There are never enough of them!

Lo, this is lovely. Have I told you lately I am glad I have met you? Well I am. xoxo
Very pretty, Laurel! This reminds me of our garden on Saturday - lots and lots of dragonflies around teasing Bob cat!
So pretty, peaceful and perfect for summer, your image and words. I bet you had a lot of fun making it!
xoxo lori

I just love this picture Lolo. I can just hear that cat saying "come here my pretties, I won't hurt you". I hope you had a good weekend.
So good to see her again!

Hope you have a butterfly day ♥♥♥
