This mini kit includes
:

* (2) 12"x12" Digital Papers
* (1) Frame + Ribbon +Tape
* Wordart: Life is Crazy ~ in MANY variations!

It is hard to post this week's kit without thinking of the people in Oklahoma
affected by the tornado(es). And, as you have probably seen in the forums,
our dear Vicki Stegall (aka Mama O) is safe and her family accounted for.

So why does this wordart make me think of the disaster? This tornado was
crazy. Unheard of. Destructive. Devastating. What could be beautiful?
The beautiful comes out in the stories of help and of heroes. Of people doing
what they could with what they had at the moment to help shelter and protect those
around them. The heroes who, after the storm, raced to look for survivors and get
news to those waiting from a distance. Teachers on top of students shielding them
from harm. Strangers digging through rubble in search of any movement or sounds.
The very humble offers of comfort to neighbors and friends who received the worst of news.
Even those who helped the pets, bringing something tangible and hopeful
to some who had lost everything
Therein lies the beautiful.

And in an effort to inject a bit more levity, I leave you with these thoughts:


One is very crazy when in love.
~ Sigmund Freud

-----------------------------------------------------------

The Mad Hatter: Have I gone mad?

Alice: I'm afraid so. You're entirely bonkers. But I'll tell you a secret. All the best people are.


~ Lewis Carroll

-----------------------------------------------------------

You're only given a little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it.
~ Robin Williams

-----------------------------------------------------------

In the midst of movement and chaos, keep stillness inside of you.
~ Deepak Chopra

-----------------------------------------------------------

In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a secret order.
~ Carl Jung

-----------------------------------------------------------

We live in a rainbow of chaos.
~ Paul Cezanne

-----------------------------------------------------------

If we don't go crazy once in a while, we'll all go crazy.
~ Hawkeye (M*A*S*H)

-----------------------------------------------------------

And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because
the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places.
Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.

~ Roald Dahl

-----------------------------------------------------------

A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men.
~ Roald Dahl

-----------------------------------------------------------

Some people never go crazy, What truly horrible lives they must live.
~ Charles Bukowski

-----------------------------------------------------------

I want to think again of dangerous and noble things. I want to be light and frolicsome.
I want to be improbable and beautiful and afraid of nothing as though I had wings.

~ Mary Oliver
