What brought the Hand of THiNG to your port?

I saw you had updated this Blog so I came to read your latest entry and send a review.

What Does THiNG think about while perusing your item?

I think that the Hallmark movies are good and that they lift spirits at what can be challenging times of year. I do LOVE that one with the guy from Downton Abbey that is set in Ireland.

This reminds me to watch that one soon.

Sometimes I watch regular movies that have Christmas themes or Christmas settings in the movie.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

Those Jane Austen movies sound intriguing. Is the acting good in them?

I will definitely be looking for movies to watch this holiday season as I pry myself away from Youtube.

Fine blog entry you have here!

Review of When My Angel Flies Away

HAPPY WDC ACCOUNT ANNIVERSARY FROM "Anniversary Reviews"

What brought the Hand of THiNG to your port?

You are celebrating your 23rd anniversary here this month so here I am perusing and reading. I reread some, but I had not read this poem before. The title caught my attention.

What Does THiNG think about while perusing your item?

I thought about the loss I have suffered and all the range of emotions I have gone through in grief. Your description particularly rings true. He is not always by my side, is my own angel, as he was for so many years.

My bad day was a Tuesday instead of a Monday, but otherwise this definitely moves me through a typical wave of grief as it descends. It is good to see I am not alone - at least this made me feel like I'm not the only one who feels this range of emotional upset as the days unfold.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

This is my favorite part:

"Every day
is Black Monday,
my heart a reflection of the sky;
my blue melancholy
frames the clouds
as the sky mocks me
with the kiss of a clear, sunny day."

I was never a particularly religious person before I suffered the loss that I did. But now, I turn to prayer and it does help sometimes, but some times those sunny days can really torment me. Nature has been a great distraction, too, but I cannot really write much yet. For a while I couldn't turn off the writing, but loss changed all that.

As a reader, I found this to be very eloquent and it engaged my attention as someone who has struggled with grief and grief counseling for the past year and a half.

I liked this because it helped me to feel that maybe one of these Tuesdays, it will start to get better, if only just a little. It also makes me see that the more I read here and elsewhere, the more I find things to connect with.

So, thank you very much for that and for the lovely reading experience.

Review of Megan's Blog City Journal

for entry "November Foods"

Review by ♥noVember tHiNg♥

Rated: ASR

| (5.0)

What brought the Hand of THiNG to your port?

I saw that this was updated so I came to read and send a review.

What Does THiNG think about while perusing your item?

I like the topic of "November Foods." I think that food brings us together when other stuff divides us. Food can give comfort in hard times. There are foods that are associated with this time of year that definitely create a mood.

My brother tells me in detail every meal he eats while on the road. It is strangely comforting, especially this time of year.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

It made me think of when I would make big dinners so that Tom would have his turkey sandwich and turkey soup leftovers. The plan this year is to go out to eat at a local restaurant. We will see how that goes if we do it. I'm not cooking except maybe a pie.

This brought back memories of comforting and delicious Thanksgivings past. Lovely!

Review of Take Up My Cross Journal

for entry "Role Of The Bible In My Life "

Review by ♥noVember tHiNg♥

In affiliation with Paying It Forward

Rated: ASR | N/A (Review only item.)

What brought the Hand of THiNG to your port?

I saw that you had updated your journal of faith so I am here to read and send my thoughts in a review.

What Does THiNG think about while perusing your item?

Since Tom died, I have tried to read a psalm a day. I am on my third reading of the psalms. Someone had told me to do it and it does seem to help and calm me sometimes. Sometimes, I am not sure what the message is, but gradually I seem to be getting it. Some times I read it aloud.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

I think that faith is definitely a journey for a lot of us. We might find our ways at different points where we need comfort. I think anything that helps to comfort us and that also helps us to carry on is worthwhile and positive.

Another fine entry!

Thank you for honoring my prompt with such a lovely, inspired tale.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

I know how the cat felt and how grateful one would be in such a situation. It seems like it was meant to be, to help each other and be together.

Lovely take on the prompt - well done!

Another Festively Haunting Signature for tHiNg

What brought the Hand of THiNG to your port?

I was looking for recent updates, but this title caught my attention.

What Does THiNG think about while perusing your item?

This is a lovely poem about looking and searching for one's own place in the world. Like the butterfly, I often feel like I don't belong anywhere.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

I applaud finding a way to find joy within one's own self. So, we are self contained in that sense.

Lovely poem that reminded me of all that is good in life and that's a good thing to be reminded of.

Well done!

Rated: ASR | N/A (Review only item.)

What brought the Hand of THiNG to your port?

You faith journal had been updated so I am here to read and send a review.

What Does THiNG think about while perusing your item?

I thought about the Psalms, since they are what has got me through the past months. I try to read a psalm a day, although I do not always "get it" when I read it. Sometimes, it takes more than one reading to really figure it out.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

I liked what you said about Christmas Communion. Sometimes, I go to Church early at 8 and come home and watch the 10 AM service on live stream. The 10 AM one has music and the early one doesn't.

Sometimes I drift away during the sermon, so this way I can give it two tries to really hear and understand it.

Very inspiring journal, as always!

What brought the Hand of THiNG to your port?

I saw you had updated in your Faith Journal so I came to read and send a review.

What Does THiNG think about while perusing your item?

This was highly relevant to me because I have to re-imagine how I spend my time to adjust to the new reality here. Patience is a virtue.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

It helps me to look at the big picture sometimes and you have helped me to do that. The big picture in light of what I have learned from good and bad things that have happened lately.

I hope and pray for more useful ways to spend time in my dinosaur cave.

Very inspiring and thought provoking as always - well done!

What brought the Hand of THiNG to your port?

I saw you had updated your journal so here I am to read and review.

What Does THiNG think about while perusing your item?

Sounds like you got in the mood quite splendidly for the big treat giving day. I always loved Halloween, but I do not do things for it any more, aside from making treat bags for the lovely kids across the street from me.

I hole up in my Dinosaur

cave.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

I think setting the spOOky atmosphere sounds very festive. I am already too much of a fraidy cat to scare myself anymore. Maybe I will look at footage of Biden biting babies if I want to get really frightened.

Lovely entry that you have shared! Well done!

What brought the Hand of THiNG to your port?

I saw you had updated this story from a while back. Somehow, I missed it in my reading adventures.

What Does THiNG think about while perusing your item?

This is an enchanting tale of devotion that lasts beyond life.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

Anyone would be fortunate to be loved and cared for by such devoted spirits. It is lovely to imagine such a thing, but sometimes love can be more on one side than another and that's where the bears came in. But love prevailed and that's always a good thing.

I enjoyed reading your story very much. Sometimes, I think there is something beyond. Other times, I'm not so sure or I think the spirits are asleep on the job.

Very engaging story with admirable characters. Well done!

What brought the Hand of THiNG to your port?

I was the judge for today in "The Writer's Cramp"

. Congratulations on your win!

What Does THiNG think about while perusing your item?

I thought about the horses having a meeting. I think all animals should meet regularly. It would lead to a lot better outcomes, rather than letting grown-up human types make decisions.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

This is my favorite part:

"The children of the town were the cleverest people there. Children are usually the cleverest because they haven't yet had their brains fogged by college or office."

Truer words were never spoken. And the horses knew more than the adult humans, also.

If only there was common sense in the human world, but alas, it ran off to the pasture.

Well done and Congrats again on the win!!!

Very entertaining and enjoyable story!

Review of A Journal With Everything

for entry "Postcards"

Review by ♥noVember tHiNg♥

In affiliation with Paying It Forward

Rated: ASR | N/A (Review only item.)

What brought the Hand of THiNG to your port?

I saw that you had updated this Journal so I came to read and send a review with my thoughts.

What Does THiNG think about while perusing your item?

It reminded me of the fact that it's been a long time since I sent a post card. I got one from people who were traveling a few years ago.

Like you, I am always happy to get one or send one. Haven't thought about it in years.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

I never thought about it that someone was reading it because I never wrote anything that personal in a post card. It was always having fun, wish you were here kind of stuff. I always assumed that the mail delivery person was too busy delivering to be reading the mail.

My Dad used to send me a lot of them when he would travel for work. I still have all of them. This reminds me to maybe look through them again if I can figure out where they are.

I enjoyed reading this entry and thinking about post cards in a different way.

Fine work!

I saw you had added to your Game of Thrones Chronicles so I came to read and send my thoughts.

What Does THiNG think about while perusing your item?

I think that truth and kindness always find a way to shine eventually. We all need it, all sorts of us. There are enough people being mean and acting nasty in the world.

A little kindness goes a long way.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

This was a scary situation that turned out well for everyone because kindness and patience were shown. The world, as a whole, could learn a lot from this story and from trying to solve problems with love and not bullying.

This is a well written story with a wonderful message. Well done!!

I saw that you had added to your Game of Thrones Chronicles and so I came to read and send my review.

What Does THiNG think about while perusing your item?

I thought about how dangerous the world can be, even for baby dragons who are so cute. That was a bad witch and I was glad that the raven was there to help.

What does THiNG applaud about while reading your item?

It is hard to send little ones out into the world, which seems to get more dangerous every day. The Baby Dragons are so cute and they have a lot of spirits in their corner looking out for them.

Hopefully, that will keep them safe always.

I love thinking of Baby Dragons and those spirits that help them through.

Very engaging story and I enjoyed it very much! Perfect for this time of the year.
