<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Hello and a very warm welcome to you!<br /><br />At last... I have returned! <i>(not that I ever really got started lol)</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br />Well it has certainly been an unpredictable, long and arduous life journey for me since I shared my very first post here... an incredible 8 years ago! <br /><br />During this time I have learned that life sometimes has other ideas and directions other than the path we thought we were heading on! A good reminder that there are always lessons to be learned about acceptance and surrender!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br />My time "away" has been filled with many challenges, distractions and diversions... with no time and energy to write and keep up a Blog! </span><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">However, there have been some things which have remained a strong and consistent pull within me and that is my <b><span style="color: cyan;">Inner Voice Art</span></b></span><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"> creative world and also the incubation of an exciting and large new branch of work from our collective "Family Tree" which I have called: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i><span style="font-size: large;">Breathing Life Into The Past...</span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="color: lime; font-size: large;">"Ancestors Alive! ~ What is Remembered, Lives."</span></b></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">It feels like I have been gathering this heart and soul material forever and now it is time to bring this new body of work out from the Dreamtime and into the world...<br />I will be creating a new blog for this project so please note the new name:</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: lime; font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b><a href="http://walkingwithourancestors.blogspot.com/">WalkingWithOurAncestors.blogspot.com</a></b></span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">
There are many aspects to this new work which will encompass a variety of ways in which to explore our Ancestral, Cultural and Family history backgrounds and connections... <br />Collecting & writing memories, stories & photos; creating Life Blessing Books and other memory keepers whilst discovering more about those who came before us... whether known or unknown.<br />I believe that it is in the "remembering" of our Ancestors that we truly honour them.</span></div>
