    An autumn walk

     
    Foggy morning.
    a small world. A view  from my office window.
     
     
    I came home  at 12  after 4 hrs office work with a head ache ,painfull throat and running nose.
    I was thinking  when i was driving  home....i eat and then horizontal. I dont do a thing today.
    But my hubby  thought different...change clothes we go for a walk  it will do u good, he said
    so  as a perfect wife ( hihi)  i went upstairs to do what he asked.
    And indeed  i was reborn after the autumn walk..
    Here some pics  of the forest. Autumn dress.
     
     
    I call this my Forest..There is no path  or tree  i dont recognise.
     
     
     
    These mushrooms look so irrealistic .Where  are the gnomes??

    A kiSs

        Words sweet from the lips
        yet not as sweet as a kiss
     
        hearts be healed with a wish
        sealed with a kiss
     
        sweetened by a tender lips
        innocence in a childs kiss
     
        care be showered by the lips
        affection in a mothers kiss
     
        strength to gain in a firm lips
        courage in a fathers kiss
     
        Pleasure an endless bliss
        honey in a lovers lips
      
        moments in pain and joy to kiss
        shared with love by a friends lips
     
        sealed with joy by every lips
        blessed are the lips that kiss

    Father Damian

     
    A small country with a Holy Father
    Damien
     
    Damien was born as Jozef ("Jef") De Veuster as the seventh child in the family. Following in the footsteps of his brother Auguste (Father Pamphile), Damien became a Picpus Brother On March 19, 1864, Father Damien landed at Honolulu Harbor in downtown Honolulu as a missionary.
    The Native Hawaiians became afflicted by diseases inadvertently introduced to their islands by foreign traders and sailors. Thousands died of influenza, syphilis and other ailments which had never before affected them. This included the plight of leprosy .Damien's arrival is seen by some as a turning point for the community. Under his leadership, basic laws were enforced, shacks became painted houses, working farms were organized and schools were erected.
    As indicated in his diaries, in December 1884 Damien went about his evening ritual of soaking his feet in boiling water. He could not feel the heat because he had contracted leprosy. Despite this discovery, residents say that Damien worked vigorously to build as many homes as he could and planned for the continuation of the programs he created after he was gone. Father Damien died of leprosy at 8.00am on April 15, 1889, aged 49.In 1936, the Belgian government asked for his body to be returned to native soil. It was brought back aboard the Belgian sailing ship Mercator and now rests in Leuven, an historic university city close to the village where Damien was born. After his beatification, the remains of the right hand were returned to Hawaii.
     
    He gave his life for the people with leprosy
    and to morrow  october 11  th in the Vatican Pope Benedict  XVI will make him Holy..
