Tonight one of my blogging friends emailed me a photograph just for me. I had asked him if I could have one of his thousands of bird photographs and I had even chosen a few possibilities. You see I didn’t want to simply ‘steal’ one which is easy enough to do with the internet.
But he sent me a personalized one and he hasn’t even put this photograph on his blog yet, so I think I am the first to see it. It even has my name on it. It is difficult to describe how much this photograph of a bird with its wings holding it up, and a cheeky expression on its face, has rendered me dust-free and reminded me that when I first began this haphazard blog, it was all about wings.
I thought of maybe inserting this photograph here but no way – not now. Now, it is just mine!
Thank you, Tom.

it’s funny the way you describe the photograph could almost be a description of you….a bird with its wings holding it up, and a cheeky expression on its face
I never thought of that – what a wonderful thing to say!
🙂
Ok, this is your special time but we do hope you might share it sometime down the line 😉
I’ll ask the giver!
I want to see…I want to see…I want to see…I want to see…
You will have to wait, kid!
enjoy your little gift
It is so beautiful!
Very thoughtful of you to ask first.
that is so awesome!!!!!
Yes I was overwhelmed.
What a wonderful gesture and good for you keeping it for your eyes only.
I got 4 photos from a blogging sister. Of a plant … will frame them now and they will hang in my entrance so everybody that are visiting me .. will enjoy them too. So happy for you ..
I have changed my mind and am going to share the picture if my friend says okay – I can’t not share it as it is so beautiful. Love your story of the plant photographs Viveka!
Yes, it ws so nice of her to send my the photos .. because I loved them so much. There is some fantastic peole out there.
And you are one of them!
Thank you so much …. those words went straight into my software.
funny how we sometimes need a stranger to remind us we have wings and not just tied down or tethered! use those wings and remember the joy they bring to you:)
Yes!
I agree Jules. It’s your gift. Cherish it alone. I have done something very similar.
What a special friend. and you are even more special for this post.

I might change my mind and show the photo soon – in a few days – I want to acknowledge the lovely person.
I love Diana’s comparison to you!
Me too!
What a very kind gesture, Tom. Lucky you, Julie.
Isn’t Tom a wonder!
