  9. SMiLe Xenia i suppose some folks
    are more orientated to Big Picture
    Views of Life as Essence and others
    MoRE iNto Details like Labels
    That are Names that
    attempt to
    Typify our Soul..
    i’ve never Seen myself
    as a Name and as Languages
    of Love go it is easy to Engage
    the Souls of Others without ever
    Mentioning their Name as the Essence
    to me at least of Who they are as Soul is
    the Finger Print and Foot Print of God that
    Golden Spirals for me within without any Label
    or other
    Form
    of Human
    Difference at all
    yes.. each Human now a
    Snowflake that No Label
    to me will entirely cover
    but still i realize there
    are two ways and
    of course almost
    beyond infinite ways
    Yes.. through Human iMaGiNaTioN
    to View and Express Each MultiVerse
    of Human God Eyes and All other Existence True..
    Yes in
    DarK Thru
    Light too
    so i do my Best
    to Remember Names
    that do Endear me True too..:)

    1. Thank you dear Fred, ‘snowdrop’ is a lovely name for this small white flower and the flower itself may never be concerned with the name it’s been given. Hope you and Katrina are feeling better and a very happy weekend to you both! 🤗💖🌞
