Elegant and precious as gemstones. What a treasure! Thanks A, B, C, D Coppola’s!!
From my heart: I realize that we have a very diverse family here, but after my “I Am” experience: my prayers to God, my vision, the compassion expressed from every heart – I am totally convinced that it is possible to be true to who we are, without compromising our religious beliefs; and expand our horizons and embrace our differences while celebrating the holiday seasons and new years to come.
I am keeping Christ very much alive in Christmas. And on the flip: May we all be thankful that we are alive and FREE to (BE &) choose our beliefs.
And so…
Whatever path you all may walk, I send much love your way!
Dugsy said it good enough for The Barn. Kinda like Coppola Alphabet idn’t?
I don’t believe I have ever seen that dialect spoke that way b’for.
ASC? Stunning!
BC? With those arms, you gonna be chuckin the fast balls! Man you’ve grown young man! Go Dogers!
CRC? What can be said. I’ll do my statement to you in deed.
And of course DAC! Already got a 1999 Peterbilt 379 named after you…Can’t get no better than that with trucks!
And to the rest of my EARSXXI family?!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Be well all,
MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL!
Well, Rudolph, The Red nose reindeer lost his nose last night. So Santa blew it up several sizes so me and Rudolph could find it. We looked everywhere, and I decided to see what you were doing. Rudolph’nose is in your X-mas card. He will sneak up tonight and claim it.
Barn, thank for introducing me to Aho Mitakuye Oyasin…
I honor all my relatives in this circle of life with this prayer….
To the Creator, for the ultimate gift of life, I thank you.
To the mineral nation that has built and maintained my bones and all foundations of life experience, I thank you.
To the plant nation that sustains my organs and body and gives me healing herbs for sickness, I thank you.
To the animal nation that feeds me from your own flesh and offers your loyal companionship in this walk of life, I thank you.
To the human nation that shares my path as a soul upon the sacred wheel of Earthly life, I thank you.
To the Spirit nation that guides me invisibly through the ups and downs of life and for carrying the torch of light through the Ages. I thank you.
To the Four Winds of Change and Growth, I thank you.
You are all my relations, my relatives, without whom I would not live. We are in the circle of life together, co-existing, co-dependent, co-creating our destiny. One, not more important than the other. One nation evolving from the other and yet each dependent upon the one above and the one below. All of us a part of the Great Mystery.
The Eagle was often placed in the East and represented Spirit and clear vision. The Wolf was in the South and was a pathfinder, teacher, & hunter. The Bear was in the West representing the place of introspection and the healer. The Buffalo, life giver, was in the North as a symbol of abundance, wisdom, & our ancestors.
CRC, your totem is the Wolf, right? It’s a circle of the beautiful spiritual animals.
Thanks again Barn for opening up the Indian side of me……

A very special thought of the same back to the CRC family, and my internet friends.
May everyone dream of better, and continue on to the future of life.
Merry Xmas to one and all!

Make no mistake about it – I am deeply grateful to Mr. Coppola and those who helped me to paint what was placed on my heart. And that’s forever!

Thanks Brodda! Again, best to All!
Anna: Thanks for sharing your funny humor with us. Is the inflation of Rudolph nose, a whimsical version of Lojac? How does ‘Glowjac’ sound?
Post-Merry Christmas to ALL, and to ALL a good day and night!!
