“..and all the earth did was to take one small turn on its heel.”
I wonder what tomorrow will bring.
Thank you Baph! :–)
Tomorrow will usher in what we hope for today. If not, there’s always another tomorrow.

Nice… A pleasant and concise post 🙂 Every day in the year marks the occurence of an event since we have only 365 days.. But then how we take to each day marks how it takes on us !!
Happy anniversary Rads, i can totally understand how this is like a milestone for you. Every single day is an achievement. Keep going.
On April 12th i turned 32 and how?? all the earth did was to take one small turn on its heel.” 🙂
anyway that was so interestingly put across to say everyday is not just another mundane day as we think it is.
so much philosophy floating around in the comments section, something to do with the date?
bayama irukku 😉
…and the pope turned 81.
Thou not so holy, huh? 😉
Thank god for spring, eh? 🙂 While it quietly snowed over the weekend in AA.
The first anniversary gift is supposed to be paper. I never thought it made much sense until now – here’s wishing that this year brings you lots of paper (aka a big fat raise). Congrats 🙂
that was a nice list!
so happy anniversary and the whole nine yards 🙂
Happy Anniversary! 🙂

Great post, ma’am! Also a bit poignant. I didn’t know the Titanic went down on the 15th of April. That means, they died AFTER paying their taxes! What could be more tragic?
