Wonderful thoughts, Janie, thank you!

Neil Harri's 2008 lighthouse photo is one of the
finest I have seen on The Cam. Thanks for coming
back down to earth and for sharing, Neil. This is a
classic!

Good afternoon. Merry Christmas everyone!!

Good afternoon pasty cammers! Merry Christmas to you all!! There are some totally awesome Christmas pictures this morning!!

It's a beautiful day here in MN. We do NOT have a White Christmas, and the temps have been hovering around 40. It's really different, but kind of cool, too!!

Shirley, thinking about you today, as I am all of my friends who have lost loved ones this year. Am especially thinking about Laurie B, one of my dearest friends, who lost her beloved husband in May of this year to cancer. She misses him terribly and I'm sure this is a difficult day for her.

I received this in an e-mail today and thought I'd share it with you guys, my online friends through pasty. I do not know who wrote it. It was not me, but thought it was fitting for this site! Enjoy!

Dear Lord, Every single evening
As I'm lying here in bed,
This tiny little Prayer
Keeps running through my head:
God bless all my family
Wherever they may be,
Keep them warm
And safe from harm
For they're so close to me.
And God, there is one more thing
I wish that you could do;
Hope you don't mind me asking,
Please bless my computer too.
Now I know that it's unusual
To Bless a motherboard,
But listen just a second
While I explain it to you, Lord .
You see, that little metal box
Holds more than odds and ends;
Inside those small compartments
Rest so many of my friends.
I know so much about them
By the kindness that they give,
And this little scrap of metal
Takes me in to where they live.
By faith is how I know them
Much the same as you.
We share in what life brings us
And from that our friendships grew..
Please take an extra minute
From your duties up above,
To bless those in my address book
That's filled with so much love.
Wherever else this prayer may reach
To each and every friend,
Bless each e-mail inbox
And each person who hits 'send'.
When you update your Heavenly list
On your own Great CD-ROM,
Bless everyone who says this prayer
Sent up to GOD.Com
Amen

May you all have a very blessed Christmas!

Oh my, Deb, what a beautiful message. Thank you so much for sharing that with all of us....it is so true!
My husband also passed away in May of this year, just 12 days before his 78th birthday, so I know what a sad time your friend, Laurie B. is going through. Please convey my condolences to her. And thank you again for your kindness.

We will see all our loved ones again.

Condolences also from Finland and yet warms Christmas regards around to Michigan -- to all relatives and friends there in far big sea another side!!

Jarmo, hope you and your family had a wonderful day!

Deb, what a beautiful prayer to end this day. It is so true that you our my friend even though we've never met. I hold all of my internet friends in my heart right along with all of my friends I see often. Thanks for sharing.

Shirley, thank you for the expression of sympathy. My thoughts are with you today as well. It's sure not a fun journey that we are on, but with God's help, it will get easier. Thanks to all my family and friends, I had a good day. I hope you did as well.

Laurie B., it's so true what you said about our journey, that it's much easier with God to help and guide us along...don't know what I'd do without Him! So good that your family and friends helped you have a good day today.
May God continue to comfort you on your sad journey! A warm hug.

Merry Christmas Jarmo to you and your family!
