New Day...

Wound the Old... {1860's} Ogee Clock, with the Winter Scene in it's door glass, this morning.

It took right off.

Haven't wound it.. in a very long time.

Pal,Chicago Ray... brought it to me many years ago.

I've always loved the Ogee Clocks.

They are weight driven.

They remind me of a quote in 'Streams in The Desert'...

"It's the weights in the Old Grandfather Clock... that make it go."

: )

Meaning...we should be Grateful... for the 'weights' in our lives.

They, in the scheme of things, are very necessary.

These...Old, Old... Clocks, I have found over the years... can be so incredibly mistreated, forgotten in attics, that are oven hot...and freezer cold, for decades...

yet...

I've never met a complete Ogee... that didn't take right off, with a winding.

<3

{maybe...a little oil, and setting the beat.}

So Incredibly Resilient.

<3

Done cryin' in my soup... for today, anyway.

: )

I've got shit...to do.

; )

Saw the above... on FB a few days ago.

: )

It's So True.

Looking back, I'd bet... we could All reflect on the Special People, who... have been a Beacon,

in a Storm, throughout this life.

They...

 Far... 

Outshine the 'hollow'... people we meet on our 'Journey'.

They Outnumber... 'em too.

; )

<3

sometimes...

it's difficult to remember, that.

Every day... that we are Blessed to open our eyes...

is an opportunity, to 

Start... New.

Give it another...

Spin.

; )

Love to Ya...

Prayers for ALL.
