The Murfreesboro Art League has several members who will be participating in the Greenway Arts Festival in Murfreesboro this Sat.  As far as I know, Carol Berning, Carole Carroll, Mark Jackson, Heloise Shilstat, and Suzanne LeBeau will be showing their art.  If there are others, let me know and I'll get the word out.  Come on out and support the arts! http://wgnsradio.com/news.php?viewStory=3285

It's all in your choices.  You can look at different situations as a set-back or a step up in your growth as a person.

Foggy morning

My fingers began to get numb
As I slowly inched my way along
Afraid I would slip on the icy, muddy bank,
I placed my feet carefully.
Silence filled the air
As my breath hung like a ghost
Maybe it would be better on the other side.
The worn tread on my shoes did little to help
As I made my way across the icy bridge.

Ahhh, perfect!
Suddenly, a bird, with flapping wings
Startled me almost as much as my quiet click
Must have frightened him.
It's time to head home now -
I've gotten what I set out to find.
May all my Thanksgivings be
As peaceful as this one!
