Be safe


All of my thoughts and prayers are going towards the East Coast of America today as they brace for the arrival of Hurricane Sandy. Yes, to my beloved New York City but to all of you that I may not know of that are in harm’s way I am sending you this virtual bouquet and asking that you please be extra careful as nature is demanding the respect that we haven’t been giving.
So stock up on the candles, water, bring out the thick blankets and shore up the windows…

…prepare your big boots…

…once everything is ready, perhaps pour yourself a glass of wine…
…believe that all will be well and try to keep the light shining in your heart…
…trust when it is time to take matters in to your own hands…

…but also when it is wisest to stay right where you are and wait it out…
Please Be Safe.
With lots of Love from Arles…
