    Of course, I love your journal, but I have to say I'm fascinated by the Emily Dickenson stamp! You really know how to pull a theme together! :-)

    Love this...from the sticker bedecked in doodles to the marriage of Dickinson and scipture not to mention the stamps and watercolors. I just sat and spent time taking it all in. A real treat.

    I should really do this. When my Mom died I searched high and low for anything that she wrote, anything. I need to leave something like this for my children, a blog can evaporate, it can disappear. Handwriting is eternal.

    your journal looks like you.
    (do you know what i mean?)
    my hubby has suffered from panic disorder for much of his life and as a youth was drawn to the darkness in ED's poems. i love the LIGHT interpretation that we are hungering for more than just a spring (tho i love me some spring!) but the Eternal Spring Romans tells us, points us towards. beauty thoughts, these.

  25. JodiMarch 10, 2011 at 11:51 AM

    Misty, thanks for getting it. I want some spring, too. But when reading ED's poem, I can't help but think of that internal longing stated so well in Romans. :)

    Love your notebook, I do something similar on the wall behind my desk but you have inspired me to get away from the computer and take up another notebook; the ones I keep now are observations I squirrel away to write about later, this will be more personal. Thanks.

    Found your blog through 'imperfect prose'.
