A journal page, when feeling sad. It took me a little bit to remember the date. The 8th anniversary of Ma's passing. And then the shock to realize how long it's been and how fast time has moved on.
The lyrics are from a song sung by Burl Ives:
"A little bitty tear let me down
Spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not to make a frown
But a little bitty tear let me down
Sharpie pen, watercolor pencil, pearl bead
Time goes way too fast, doesn't it? Nice journal page CJ. Happy new week!
