tender moments from an "Old" Story

The tragedy of old age is not that one is old, but that one is young.

well, this made me almost cry! i've never heard this before and i'm beginning to know it is true.

i love your painting, tho it too makes me sad. BUT: i know very well how great it is to hold a child on my lap, to share stories, to create memories.

and. i still know how to kick ass and party well. :^)

love you, my friend.

love
kj

Hi Valerie. Such an interesting quote and a tender illustration. I like the bird perched on her shoulder. It's funny because I was thinking of posting to IF again.

IF... how I miss it. Now that I see you are submitting, I'm thinking it would be fun to do it again. Your piece is so touching, your sweet spirit comes shining through.
