As I told lynne, I am the one who rips open the letter before I'm even out of the post office, sits in the car looking at photos that have been developed, or eats the chocolate bar before I'm even out of the store. I'm baffled at the way I've responded to these...<BR/><BR/>jeane...maybe you think you would but maybe you wouldn't? So speaks the queen of immediate gratification. <BR/><BR/>lynne...interesting. I guess that's what I meant in my haiku a few weeks ago: generosity, opens possibility, in realms unthought of. You, yourself, opened up that possibility. <BR/><BR/>robyn...you'll have to wait a little longer :)<BR/><BR/>jo...and still pondering them. but almost ready to unwrap!<BR/><BR/>arnold...the box is great, isn't it.<BR/><BR/>terry...thanks so much for visiting my blog and for honouring me with an award! Yet another gift!<BR/><BR/>jacky...thanks! Sharing in the excitement just adds to the joy of the whole experience!<BR/><BR/>kathy...you certainly started something. And who knows how many others have been inspired by your gesture. Accept it with unabashed (love that word ever since I read it on your blog) pride!<BR/><BR/>mansuetude...I may be patient, but I don't think I could wait 100 years! :) But I appreciate your sentiments on this! <BR/><BR/>shayla...soon...<BR/><BR/>ww...awesome in the true sense of the word, inspiring awe!<BR/><BR/>roxanne...thanks!

I would wait, maybe peek at one in a hundred years. I think the bones of what are inside are dual purpose like we, to hold the flesh of something beautiful, to contain mystery. This is wonderful. You make magic together.<BR/><BR/>I am a bit like this at Christmas and such, love to open slowly.mansuetudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03805383049085040581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3824602162296203395.post-68428251438573591222008-09-08T16:07:00.000-04:002008-09-08T16:07:00.000-04:00It's kind of strange to see our little project tra...It's kind of strange to see our little project transported and transmuted. It's so much easier to send little treasures out into the world than to receive any attention regarding the gift. Guess I need to work on that. The haiku is as much a gift - such an elegant form of communication. <BR/>Thank you Kate for providing the inspiration to re-distribute some of my cache of nature's bounty. -blessingskvkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10064766686926222233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3824602162296203395.post-89391882451109135842008-09-07T23:58:00.000-04:002008-09-07T23:58:00.000-04:00What an awesome package.
