Hold on to what is good even if it is a handful of earth.

Hold on to what you believe even if it is a tree which stands by itself.

Hold on to what you must do even if it is a long way from here.

Hold on to life even when it is easier letting go.

Hold on to my hand even when I have gone away from you.

~Pueblo blessing

Hi Adele
  Thinking of you and hoping that summer has offered some inspiration and comfort. I've been spending lots of time up in Kincardine on Lake Huron. I know you have enjoyed time in the county with the beauty of the Sandbanks and the vistas on Lake Ontario. Kincardine has similar vistas and I  never tire of the big sky and vast landscape and of course the gorgeous sunsets! Each evening is a new canvas painted with light and colour.
  Though the water level is high this year and the beach narrow, the children still manage to find ways to build their empires out of sand on the beach. I love watching their immersion and deep engagement as they create stories in worlds of their choosing that they have built. Watching them, I am reminded of the fine work of students and artist educators through all the various programs offered through LTTA and elsewhere. I am so grateful for the encouragement and inspiration you provided over the years. I've attached a sunset photo from Kincardine. I'll select some others as well of birds and gardens that you might enjoy and send them along.
 lots of hugs and love
Julia Pal
